Joe Diffie - Pickup Man lyrics

rate me

Well I got my first truck, when I was three,

Drove a hundred thousand miles on my knees

Hauled marbles and rocks, and thought twice before

I hauled a Barbie Doll bed for the girl next door

When she paid me with a kiss I began to understand,

There's just something women like about a PickUp Man

When I turned sixteen, I saved a few hundred bucks

My first car was a Pickup Truck

Started cruisin' the town and the first girl I seen

Was Bobbie Jo Gentry the homecoming queen

She flagged me down and climbed up in the cab, and said

"I never knew you were a Pickup Man!"

You can set my truck on fire, roll it down a hill

But I still wouldn't trade it for a Coupe DeVille

It's got an eight foot bed that never has to be made

You know if it weren't for trucks we wouldn't have tailgates

I met all my wives in traffic jams,

You know there's something women like about a Pickup Man

Most Friday nights, I can be found

In the back of my truck on an old chaise lounge

Backed into my spot at the drive-in show

You know a cargo light gives off a romantic glow

I never have to wait in line at the popcorn stand,

There's just something women like about a pickup Man

You can set my truck on fire, roll it down a hill

But I still wouldn't trade it for a Coupe DeVille

It's got an eight foot bed that never has to be made

You know if it weren't for trucks we wouldn't have tailgates

I met all my wives in traffic jams,

You know there's something women like about a Pickup Man

A bucket of rust, or a brand new machine

Once around the block and you'll know what I mean

You can set my truck on fire, roll it down a hill

But I still wouldn't trade it for a Coupe DeVille

It's got an eight foot bed that never has to be made

You know if it weren't for trucks we wouldn't have tailgates

I met all my wives in traffic jams,

You know there's something women like about a Pickup Man
