[Verse 1]
Ay-ay-ay, there's a magic boy
Sitting on the front steps near his dad’s old Mustang Ford
Where a love that used to live ain't anymore
Ay-ay-ay, goes the magic boy

[Chorus]
Taking the heat on, of a West Texas July
Burning the freeway in with the dusty night
Home in his new Ford, everything that's left too fast
Not meant to last

[Verse 2]
Ay-ay-ay, there’s the magic boy
Sitting on the front steps of old hook and letter four
Wooden fires out in a heart one once adored
Ay-ay-ay, goes the magic boy

[Chorus]
Taking the heat on, of a West Texas July
Burning the freeway in with the dusty night
Home in his new Ford, everything that's left too fast
Not meant to last

[Verse 3]
Taking his top down, he put a star on scenic drive
Cooling his hands from the rusty firefight
One of these days everything that's left too fast
Will come back at last
Will come back at last
