We Laughed And Joked In The Cab Of His Truck
Just My Brother And Me
The Night Before He Shipped Out Overseas
A Leatherneck 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 A Lot Of Tan Legs
Got A Kick Ass Radio
Heard A Lot Of Singing Along To Some Country Songs And Rock & Roll
Got A .38 Bullet Hole Courtesy Of Kate Tillman's Dad
A Lot Of Scotch Tape Marks From Holding Timeless Photographs
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

I Had The Engine Overhauled
A Paint Job And Brand New Chrome
I Had Her Washed And Waxed
Sitting In The Drive The Day He Came Home
I Said Here's Your Keys She's All Yours
I Fixed Everything But The Dashboard
