Lyrics
[Intro] [Verse] Found it back behind the Texaco Looking like it had nowhere to go Ninety-eight Chevy, faded blue Dents in the fender, nothing new But I saw the ghost of a smile Hidden in every dusty mile [Pre-Chorus] Scraped my knuckles on the steel Felt the spirit at the wheel Every bolt I had to turn Was a lesson I had to learn [Chorus] 'Cause broken things hold the best stories Hidden under rust and the glories That chipped-up dash and the coffee stain Keep me dry through the pouring rain Yeah, she’s a beauty in my eyes Rolling under these Southern skies [Post-Chorus] Every scratch is a memory Every dent is a part of me Yeah, she’s a part of me Just like he used to be [Verse] Grandpa taught me how to shift the gears I haven’t felt this close in years Pine tree hanging from the mirror frame Whispering out his middle name We used to head down to the creek With a secret spot we’d always seek [Chorus] 'Cause broken things hold the best stories Hidden under rust and the glories That chipped-up dash and the coffee stain Keep me dry through the pouring rain Yeah, she’s a beauty in my eyes Rolling under these Southern skies [Bridge] I remember Sarah in the middle seat Heart skipping to the rhythm of the beat Cracked windshield caught the setting sun Feeling like our lives had just begun The engine hums a familiar song Right where I feel like I belong [Verse] Wiped the dust off the bench seat Polished up the chrome, looking sweet Tailgate drops with a heavy thud Still got a little bit of river mud It ain't just a truck to get home It's a rolling piece of all I've known [Chorus] 'Cause broken things hold the best stories Hidden under rust and the glories That chipped-up dash and the coffee stain Keep me dry through the pouring rain Yeah, she’s a beauty in my eyes Rolling under these Southern skies [Post-Chorus] Every scratch is a memory Every dent is a part of me Yeah, she’s a part of me Just like he used to be [Outro]
