WELL I GOT MY FIRST TRUCK, WHEN I WAS THREE,  
 
DROVE A HUNDRED THOUSAND MILES ON MY KNEES 
       C7                                                        
HAULED MARBLES AND ROCKS, AND THOUGHT TWICE BEFORE, 
           G 
I HAULED A BARBIE DOLL BED FOR THE GIRL NEXT DOOR 
             D 
SHE TRIED TO PAY ME WITH A KISS I BEGAN TO UNDERSTAND, 
                 G (N.C.)                            G     
THERE'S JUST SOMETHING WOMEN LIKE ABOUT A PICKUP MAN

WHEN I TURNED SIXTEEN, I SAVED A FEW HUNDRED BUCKS, 
 
MY FIRST CAR WAS A PICKUP TRUCK 
         C7 
STARTED CRUISIN' THE TOWN AND THE FIRST GIRL I SEEN 
     G 
WAS BOBBIE JO GENTRY THE HOMECOMING QUEEN 
     D 
SHE FLAGGED ME DOWN AND CLIMBED UP IN THE CAB, 
      G   (N.C.) 
AND SAID, I NEVER KNEW YOU WERE A PICKUP MAN 
 
 
        C7 
YOU CAN SET MY TRUCK ON FIRE, ROLL IT DOWN A HILL,  
      G 
BUT I STILL WOULDN'T TRADE IT FOR A COUPE DEVILLE 
            C      
IT'S GOT AN EIGHT FOOT BED THAT NEVER HAS TO BE MADE,  
               D 
YOU KNOW IF IT WEREN'T FOR TRUCKS WE WOULDN'T HAVE TAILGATES 
      C7  
I MET ALL MY WIVES IN TRAFFIC JAMS, 
                     G                        D      G            
YOU KNOW THERE'S SOMETHING WOMEN LIKE ABOUT A PICKUP MAN 
 
 
        G  
MOST FRIDAY NIGHTS, I CAN BE FOUND, 
 
IN THE BACK OF MY TRUCK ON AN OLD CHAISE LOUNGE 
       C7 
BACKED INTO MY SPOT AT THE DRIVE-IN SHOW,  
           G 
YOU KNOW A CARGO LIGHT GIVES OFF A ROMANTIC GLOW 
        D 
I NEVER HAVE TO WAIT IN LINE AT THE POPCORN STAND, 
              G   (N.C.)           
THERE'S JUST SOMETHING WOMEN LIKE ABOUT A PICKUP MAN 
 
 
C7  G  C  D

A BUCKET OF RUST, OR A BRAND NEW MACHINE 
D 
ONCE AROUND THE BLOCK AND YOU'LL KNOW WHAT I MEAN
