Cigarettes and Me

Lyrics

Just an old bucket of bolts for sale there in the weeds
 200 cash, push pull the drag, bought it when I turned 16
 Me and daddy out in that barn beneath that overhead light
 He'd bust his ass at work all day and stay up with me all night
 And I could see that blue collar smile dragging on that Marlboro Red
 And I remember every prayer, every cuss word that he said
 All the junkyard parts that didn't fit
 My daddy never quit
 Cigarettes, Chevy trucks and me
 ♪
 He bought me a brand new radio
 Said play that good rock and roll
 It's the only thing that will make these dirt roads feel like streets of gold
 Don't make the blue lights flash even though I know you're gonna
 Give every pretty girl the ride till you find one like your mama
 I could see that blue collar smile dragging on that Marlboro Red
 And I remember every prayer and every cuss word that he said
 All the junkyard parts that didn't fit
 My daddy never quit
 Cigarettes, Chevy trucks and me
 He never give in
 He never quit on me, yeah
 ♪
 300 thousand miles seen a lot of county lines
 She could use a coat of paint, a lot of spit and shine
 Madiphone? Popping in this field of green to the sound of a Seger song
 I'm standing here like a rock
 Talking to this stone
 Come on
 I could see that blue collar smile dragging on that Marlboro Red
 And I remember every prayer and every cuss word that he said
 All the junkyard parts that didn't fit
 My daddy never quit
 Cigarettes, Chevy trucks and me
 ♪
 He never quit on me, yeah
 Oh come on
