The Dashboard Lyrics - The Man I Want To Be - Chris Young

We laughed and joked in the cab of his truck 

Just my brother and me 

The night before he shipped out Overseas 

A leather-neck, Jarhead Marine 

He said "the Radiator leaks, 

And the timing-belt is worn, 

But the Heart and Soul of this old beat up truck, 

Is The Dashboard." 

"It's seen alot of tan legs, 

Got a kick ass radio 

Heard alot of singing along with some country songs, and rock and roll. 

Got a .38 bullet hole, courtesy of Kate Tillman's dad, 

Alot of scotch tape marks from holding timeless photo graphs." 

He said "If I don't come back, 

You can have this Ford, 

Just tape a picture of me, on the Dashboard."

He said "The paint is peeling off, 

It's got dents in both the doors, 

if something happens to me don't hang a for-sale sign above the Dashboard." 

"It's seen alot of tan legs, 

Got a kick ass radio 

Heard alot of singing along with some country songs, and rock and roll. 

Got a .38 bullet hole, courtesy of Kate Tillman's dad, 

Alot of scotch tape marks from holding timeless photo graphs." 

He said "If I don't come back, 

You can have this Ford, 

Just tape a picture of me, on the Dashboard." 

I Had the Engine overhauled, 

A paint-job and brand new chrome 

I Had her washed and waxed, sittin' in the drive the day that he came home

I said "Here's the keys, 

She's all yours, 

I Fixed everything, 

But the Dashboard"
