Lyrics
Won't Sell This Truck John Schutt/Jeff Bostick © 2021
v1
Got an old Dodge Ram sitting in the drive,
Fella came by, said he liked my ride
Did I wanna put a price on it today
But my daddy give it t'me when I was a young'un
I'm gonna keep it till they lay my body under
It's family, n' I'm proud to say
Ch
Won't sell this truck
No way, no how
Every mile means something to me
Faded and rusty
Still makes me so proud
Yeah, buddy [guitar fill] can't you see
Won't....Sell this truck
V2
Yeah, it hauls my mem'ries, body and soul
Like goin' with my dad to the fishin' hole
And the first time he put me behind the wheel
Every Sunday headin' to church with Mom
Polished it bright for my senior prom
No sir, this truck ain't gonna leave
Ch
Breakdown Won't sell this truck x2 it means too much,
Ain't gonna sell It
Ch
