I got my first truck when i was three,
drove a hundred thousand miles on my knees
Hauled marbles and rocks and thought twice before
I hauled a barbie doll bed for the girl next door.
She tried to pay me with a kiss and i began to understand,
thers somethin women like about a pick up man
When I turned sixteen I saved a few hundred bucks
my first car was a pick up truck
I was cruisin' the town and the first girl I see was
Bobby Joe Gentry; the homecoming Queen
She flagged me down and climbed up in the cab and said
"I never knew you were a pick up man"
Chorus
You could set my truck on fire and roll it down a hill,
and I still wouldn't trade it for a Coupe de Ville.
I've got an 8 foot bed that never has to be made,
you know if it weren't for trucks we wouldn't have tail gates.
I met all my wives in traffic jams there's just somethin women
like about a pickup man
Most Friday nights I can be found,
in the bed of my truck on an old chaise lounge.
Backed into my spot at the drive-in show
You know a cargo-light sets off a romantic glow.
I never have to wait in line at the popcorn stand
cause there's somethin' women like about a pickup man
Chorus
You could set my truck on fire and roll it down a hill,
and I still wouldn't trade it for a coupe de ville.
I've got an 8 foot bed that never has to be made,
you know if it weren't for trucks we wouldn't have tail gates.
I met all my wives in traffic jams, there's just somethin' women
like about a pickup man
(Bridge)
A bucket of rust or a brand new machine,
once around the block and you'll know what I mean
Chorus
You could set my truck on fire and roll it down a hill,
and I still wouldn't trade it for a Coupe de Ville.
I've got an 8 foot bed that never has to be made,
you know if it weren't for trucks we wouldn't have tail gates.
I met all my wives in traffic jams there's just somethin' women
like about a pickup man
