The Queen of This County

V6

[Verse 1] You said, “Come over, I made us a pie” I said, “Just one second,” with a wrench and a sigh That old Chevy’s coughing by the edge of the shed I’ve got grease on my collar and bolts in my bed [Chorus] My truck gets the good seat, the best of my time New plugs, fresh tires, and a coat of shine You can call me lovesick, you can call me a fool But I’m out there tuning that two-ton jewel If the road calls my name, I know what I’ll do I’ll be right there under the hood of my truck [Verse 2] I traded Saturday plans for a carburetor kit Found a chrome air cleaner that was just the right fit Put a lift on the front and some mud tires out back Now it climbs that old hill like it’s born for the track You brought lemonade down, said, “You’re missing the dance” I said, “Hand me that socket, this thing’s got a chance” [Chorus] My truck gets the good seat, the best of my time New plugs, fresh tires, and a coat of shine You can call me lovesick, you can call me a fool But I’m out there tuning that two-ton jewel If the road calls my name, I know what I’ll do I’ll be right there under the hood of my truck [Bridge] I know your birthday, I know your favorite song But that starter’s been grinding, and it’s been grinding too long So I brought you some roses, then I rolled up my sleeves Now we’re both in the driveway, you handing me keys [Final Chorus] My truck gets the good seat, the best of my time New plugs, fresh tires, and a coat of shine You can call me lovesick, you can call me a fool But you’re holding the flashlight while I tune that jewel We’ll take the back road, just me and you And the queen of this county, my old pickup truck [Outro] Yeah, the queen of this county, my old pickup truck
