He was tough, she was hot stuff
Had enough of growing up in Pontiac
Senior prom, with her mom, looking on
But nobody saw their bags packed
His rented tux and her Blooomingdales dress
Couldn't hold the hearts beating out of their chest
Racing down the road in a Michigan sunset
She was kissing his cheek sitting in the middle seat
Saying baby you're the only one
He was leaning on the gas, drumming on the dash
Saying baby we were born to run
And you make loving fun
Young enough, to never give up
And that old truck was never turning back
Prom night in Pontiac
Carried on singing songs wasn't long
Til Ohio hit the headlights
Eighteen, caffeine, and a dream
Just tearing through the black night
They didn't miss the dance Cause they held their own
Had a coronation on an old dirt road
Just the king and the queen
And the steam on the windows
Baby let's go
She was kissing his cheek sitting in the middle seat
Saying baby you're the only one
He was leaning on the gas, drumming on the dash
Saying baby we were born to run
And you make loving fun
Young enough, to never give up
And that old truck was never turning back
Prom night in Pontiac
Young enough
To never give up
