Tail on the Tailgate

  '74 Ford truck, rusted out an' beat up
Fire-engine red, been a part of the family for years
I was sixteen, it was my turn
Four on the floor an' I had to learn
So my brother took me out to teach me how to shift those gears
With a tear in his eye, he handed me the keys
Says Truck's got quite a history
"Over the years it's been really good to me."
"There's been a lotta tail on the tailgate
"Bumpin' on the bumper
"Steam on the windows: ain't no wonder
"There's dents in the hoods, an' the shocks ain't good
"Swingin' from the rollbars, dancin' in the bed
"I seen a bunch of gorgeous country corn-fed
"Girls an' a few other things I can't say
"There's been a lotta tail on the tailgate
"Oh, that's right, oh."
Got a grille guard, fog lights
Custom paint an' every Friday night
I'm trollin' down Main Street showin' off the new chrome wheels
We take a rough ride (Rough ride)
Down a dirt road (Down a dirt road)
To my Grandaddy's farm an' we unload
An' drove, the doors wide open an' crank up the stereo
It's better than a club or a honky-tonk
An' we can hang out just as long as we want
I think I understand what my brother was talkin' about
'Cause there's a lotta tail on the tailgate
Bumpin' on the bumper
Steam on the windows, ain't no wonder
There's dents in the hood an' the shocks ain't good
Swingin' from the rollbars, dancin' in the bed
There's a lot of gorgeous country corn-fed
Girls an' a few other things I can't say
There's a lotta tail on the tailgate
Whoo, that's right
Oh, show 'em what you got, baby
Whoo, hah, let it go boys
There's a lotta tail on the tailgate
Bumpin' on the bumper
Steam on the windows, ain't no wonder
There's dents in the hood an' the shocks ain't good
Swingin' from the rollbars, dancin' in the bed
I seen a bunch of gorgeous country corn-fed
Girls an' a few other things I can't say
There's been a lotta tail on the tailgate
Whoo, yeah, baby
That ain't what you're thinkin'
Oh, now some of y'all take that out of your minds
It ain't that
That's where people sit
Hello, do I have to explain it to you
You think it's way down in the gutter
Oh yeah
