Chris Young - The Dashboard lyrics

rate me

We laughed and joked in the cab of his truck <br />Just my brother and me <br />The night before he shipped out overseas <br />A leatherneck, jarhead marine <br />He said the radiator leaks and the timing belt is worn <br />But the heart and soul of this old beat-up truck, <br />Is the Dashboard <br /> <br />[Chorus] <br />It’s seen a lot of tan legs, <br />Got a kick ass radio, <br />Heard a lot of singing along to some country songs and rock & roll, <br />Got a .38 bullet hole, courtesy of Kate Tillman’s dad, <br />A lot of scotch tape marks from holding timeless photographs <br />He said if I don’t come back, you can have this Ford <br />Just tape a picture of me on the dashboard <br /> <br />He said the paint is peeling off, <br />It’s got dents in both the doors <br />If something happens to me, <br />Don’t hang a for sale sign above the dashboard <br /> <br />[Chorus] <br /> <br />I had the engine overhauled, <br />A paint job and brand new chrome, <br />I had her washed and waxed, <br />Sitting in the drive the day he came home <br />I said here’s your keys, she’s all yours <br />I fixed everything, but the dashboard<br /><br />
