If It Wasn't For Trucks

Why would any teenage boy cut grass?
Sweat all summer, savin' cash
Dream about turnin' heads downtown
Straight pipes on a hand-me-down

And how would anybody's daddy get around
To mend the fences and feed the cows?
Where the hell would a small town girl climb up
If it wasn't for trucks?

And where would I have raised all that hell?
And talked to God all by myself
How would I have got to Tennessee
Without a bucket seat?

Where was I supposed to cry
That July day Granddaddy died?
Or haul that deer, drink that beer
Fell in and out of love
If it wasn't for trucks

Where would I've first heard Merle?
Got the nerve to kiss a green eyed girl?
Where would old dogs ride?
And where would life fly by?

And where would I have raised all that hell?
And talked to God all by myself
How would I have got to Tennessee
Without a bucket seat?

Where was I supposed to cry
That July day Granddaddy died?
Or haul that deer, drink that beer
And fell in and out of love
If it wasn't for trucks

Yeah, if it wasn't for trucks
Well, I wouldn't be who I am today
If it wasn't for a short bed Chevrolet

And where would I have raised all that hell?
And talked to God all by myself
How would I have got to Tennessee
And where would I be?

Where was I supposed to cry
That July day Granddaddy died?
Or haul that deer, drink that beer
And fell in and out of love
If it wasn't for trucks

Yeah, if it wasn't for trucks
