Sonic Drive-In

(album: Everlasting Country - 2020)

Whoa-whoa-whoa
Whoa-whoa-whoa

I pulled up to the Sonic drive-in
No AC in my truck
Digging in that seat for loose change
For an Ocean Water or some
But when I ordered the blue drink
I got pretty blue eyes and a summertime smile, yeah
I told her I've been digging for a while

Yeah I need a change in my life
Today penny pinching done me good
I need a change in my life
Those dirty quarters understood
I got a tip for a million dollar grin
Shotgun rider, her shift on roller skates ends
American boys fall in love at the Sonic drive-in

Happy hour comes, parking lot filled up
Every tailgate down on a mud covered truck
Every star is ordering sweet tea and tots
Just to hear the tanned up pretty southern girl talk
And they wait around for a half an hour for a refill
Gas tank done ate your five dollar bill
Now you're sitting there digging through your plum full glove box
For just one more talk

Yeah I need a change in my life
Today penny pinching done me good
I need a change in my life
Those dirty quarters understood
I got a tip for a million dollar grin
Shotgun rider, her shift on roller skates ends
American boys fall in love at the Sonic drive-in

Whoa-whoa-whoa
At the Sonic drive-in
Whoa-whoa-whoa
At the Sonic drive-in

Yeah I need a change in my life
Today penny pinching done me good
I need a change in my life
Those dirty quarters understood
I got a tip for a million dollar grin
Shotgun rider, her shift on roller skates ends
American boys fall in love at the Sonic drive-in

Whoa-whoa-whoa
At the Sonic drive-in
Whoa-whoa-whoa
At the Sonic drive-in
