Lyrics

[Verse 1] He was five AM, flannel shirt Head to the shop ready to work Said "Boy, don't you ever touch my tools" I was growin' up, learnin' 'bout stuff What ever he said, I couldn't get enough 'Cause man I thought that man was old school cool One day he cocked his head up high Said "Son I think it's right about time you crank it up and take me for a ride" And he just grinned, and I jumped in [Chorus] He just kept smilin' the whole time I was drivin' I kept it inbetween lines and I think it made him proud Well he didn't say nothin' in the passenger seat He said it all sittin' there by me Yeah, I learned about life for every mile we went through That's what a Chevy and a daddy can do [Verse 2] One night I hit that dash 'cause I got mad You shoulda seen the look from my dad He said "Boy, you're still a boy you ain't no man" He said "Tires go flat, paint wears off Sometimes things just go wrong" Then he turned around and looked me in the eye Said "Let's take a ride" I climbed inside [Chorus] He just kept smilin' the whole time I was drivin' I kept it inbetween the lines and I think it made him proud Well he didn't say nothin' in the passenger seat He said it all sittin' there by me Yeah, I learned about life for every mile we went through 'Cause that's what a Chevy and a daddy can do [Bridge] It's been two years since he's been gone And I don't turn my radio on 'Cause I swear sometimes I can hear him talkin' to me Like a memory [Chorus] I bet he's smilin' the whole time I'm drivin' I keep it inbetween the lines and I hope I make him proud It's like he's right there in the passenger seat Sittin' there beside me I learned about life every mile we went through I'm still findin' out for every mile I go through What a Chevy and a daddy can do Mmm, gonna take a ride
