Lyrics

"Brand New Pickup Truck"
Words & Music by Tirk Wilder

My Grandpa died three weeks ago, he used to give me hell,
He said I'd never amount to much,
But you know, you just can't tell,
He left me with a pile of cash nobody knew he had,
What I bought with his money, says he wasn't all that bad,

Chrome wheels, Roll bar, Moon roof, See the stars,
We'll park where no cars could ever go,
Honey, climb on in my hot red stroke of luck, uh-huh,
I just bought this Brand New Pickup Truck,

I went to see the dealer man, I told him to call the bank,
He'd find out my dead Grandpa, was a man he had to thank,
I said I needed every option he had in the store,
And suddenly I was the king of that whole showroom floor,

REPEAT CHORUS

Bridge:

Now I'm overdrawn and I forgot to pay my rent,
But where I'm livin' now is much better than a tent,

Repeat CHORUS
