DRIVE(FOR DADDY GENE)
Was painted red

The stripe was white

Was eighteen feet

From the bow to stem light
Put on a shine
Put on the motor

Built out of love

And made for the water
It was just an old

Plywood boat

With a seventy five Johnson
With electric choke
A young boy

Two hands on the wheel

I can't replace the way it

Made me feel
Just a little lake

'Cross the Alabama line

But I was king of the ocean
When daddy let me drive
Just an old haIf-ton
Short-bed Ford

My uncle bought new

In sixty-four
And daddy got it right

'Cause the engine was smokin'

Couple of burnt valves
And he had it goin'
He'd let me drive her
We'd haul off a load

Down a ditt strip where we'd

Dump trash off a thick end-road
I'd sit up in the seat and

Stretch my feet up to the pedals
Smilin' like a hero

That just received his medal
Just a dirt road
With trash on each side

But I was Mario Andretti
When daddy let me drive
Instrumental break
Ifs just an old
Worn outjeep
Rusty old floorboards

Hot on my feet
A young girl

Two hands on the wheel

I can't replace the way it

Made me feel
Just a little valley

By the river where we ride
But I was high on a mountain
When daddy let me drive
Daddy let me drive

Oh he let me drive
She's just an old

Plywood boat

With a seventy five Johnson
With electric choke
