  • She might be ninety miles from Pecos
    Lightyears from anywhere
    Goodbye on her cinnamon breath
    Freedom in her hair
    She's deep Comancheria
    Even in the Malibu sand
    And even when she's in your arms, she's still
    No man's land

    So love her like a Mustang, like a wild thing
    Better let her run free
    If she wants to love ya, you let her love ya
    You give her everything

    The fire in your chest
    The very last breath of the boy who's unravelin'
    The man who's obsessed with the woman, the girl
    The wide open world in your hands
    She's no man's land

    She's purple heather on the high plains
    Her heart's a mystery
    You're lucky if you get a glimpse of
    Her rosehips among the weeds
    She's a deep Sedona sunset
    Behind the Santa Ana winds
    You can hold her for forever, but she's still
    No man's land

    So love her like a Mustang, like a wild thing
    Better let her run free
    If she wants to love ya, you let her love ya
    You give her everything

    The fire in your chest
    The very last breath of the boy who's unravelin'
    The man who's obsessed with the woman, the girl
    The wide open world in your hands
    She's no man's land

    So love her like a Mustang, like a wild thing
    Better let her run free
    If she wants to love ya, you let her love ya
    You give her everything

    The fire in your chest
    The very last breath of the boy who's unravelin'
    The man who's obsessed with the woman, the girl
    The wide open world in your hands
    She's no man's land
    She's no man's land

    She might be ninety miles from Pecos
    Lightyears from anywhere
    Goodbye on her cinnamon breath
    And freedom in her hair Writer/s: Luke Dick, Miranda Lambert
