| Takes a summer time in dollars at minimum wage
|
| To buy some Pittsburg steel when you come of age and
|
| Even more to get it running and shinning like you did
|
| It was two tone tar heel blue and white
|
| Couple Kinwood speakers tuned just right
|
| Crazy how a car makes a king out of a kid
|
| It was sun down ready, hardtop heavy, shotgun girlfriend primed
|
| Just some teenager no fear, half bald good years that still turned on a dime
|
| It was freedom calling pulling you down that backroad
|
| It was our time flying and a hell of a ride in that Bronco
|
| Momma still puts flowers out by your grave
|
| Daddy pulls up his Ford in Sunday’s race
|
| And Leah has a hard time thinking she’s older than you
|
| And me, I still see you backing out in reverse the headlights bright behind
|
| your hearse
|
| If I only could fix things like someone I once knew
|
| I wouldn’t be sitting tangled mangled full of county junk yard pain
|
| All busted rusted out here, cussing, crying out your name
|
| It was freedom calling pulling you down that backroad
|
| It was our time flying and a hell of a ride in that Bronco
|
| It was a hell of a ride
|
| It was a hell of a ride
|
| It was freedom calling pulling you down that backroad
|
| It was our time flying and a hell of a ride in that bronco
|
| It was small town, high hopes
|
| Why it ended there only heaven knows
|
| A brother, a hero and a hell of a ride in that bronco
|
| It was a hell of a ride
|
| Takes a lifetime of prayers on bend and knee to try to come to peace with your
|
| memory |
