Chris Young The Dashboard

Tekst piosenki

We laughed and joked in the cab of his truck
Just my brother and me
The night before he shipped out Overseas
A leather-neck, Jarhead Marine

He said „the Radiator leaks
And the timing-belt is worn
But the Heart and Soul of this old beat up truck
Is The Dashboard.”

„It’s seen alot of tan legs
Got a kick ass radio
Heard alot of singing along with some country songs, and rock and roll
Got a .38 bullet hole, courtesy of Kate Tillman’s dad
Alot of scotch tape marks from holding timeless photo graphs.”
He said „If I don’t come back
You can have this Ford
Just tape a picture of me, on the Dashboard.”

He said „The paint is peeling off
It’s got dents in both the doors
If something happens to me don’t hang a for-sale sign above the Dashboard.”

„It’s seen alot of tan legs
Got a kick ass radio
Heard alot of singing along with some country songs, and rock and roll
Got a .38 bullet hole, courtesy of Kate Tillman’s dad
Alot of scotch tape marks from holding timeless photo graphs.”
He said „If I don’t come back
You can have this Ford
Just tape a picture of me, on the Dashboard.”

I Had the Engine overhauled
A paint-job and brand new chrome
I Had her washed and waxed, sittin’ in the drive the day that he came home

I said „Here’s the keys
She’s all yours
I Fixed everything
