Old Pickup

(album: Gravel & Gold - 2023)

I can hear that bluebird
Out in the yard singing
Slap of a screen door
That front porch swing creaking
You kicking your shoes off
To a song we used to know
Sounds like Luckenbach
Makes me wanna go

Buy an old pickup
Just drive you around
Dial up some AM
Hand crank the window down
Reach in the glove box
Pull out that paper map
Find a forgotten road
One that'll take us back in time
Makes me wanna go buy an old pickup

Ain't got no console
So you can slide on over
Gotta love that bench seat
And your head on my shoulder
I could use a little simplify
Just you and the radio
Something in the air tonight
Makes me wanna go

Buy an old pickup
Just drive you around
Dial up some AM
Hand crank the window down
Reach in the glove box
Pull out that paper map
Find a forgotten road
One that'll take us
Down to a riverbank
Back up that short bed
Watch that sun sink
See what happens next

(Drive you around)

Makes me wanna go buy an old pickup
Just drive you around
Dial up 650
Hand crank a window down
Reach in the glove box
Pull out that paper map
Find a forgotten road
One that'll take us back in time
Makes me wanna go buy an old pickup
Buy an old pickup
Just drive you around
