Broke Down in a Truck

215,000 miles

It's seen me turn down, it's seen me try my first taste of nicotine

And sleeping off last call on this '03 bench seat

It's heard me singing at the top of my lungs

Everything from “Drive” to “Born to Run”

I broke my fist on its sun-cracked dash

It's seen me scared, and it's heard me laugh

But it ain't ever seen a face in the hands of a boy

Who was lost on the side of the road

She ain't coming back now

It ain't ever seen a hat get thrown

'Cross a cab when the truth came out

No, it ain't ever had salt from a teardrop fall on the floorboard

Or heard the heart scream it could've done more

When the good went bye in a cloud of dust

And left a good guy broke down in a truck

It saw our first kiss and second date

Heard me praying she wasn't late

It helped me hold her when her dog died

And say I love you for the first time

It saw my nerves when I pulled out

That wad of cash and slowly counted

Everything I got in that parking lot of that jewelry store

And it saw me walk through that door

But it ain't ever seen a face in the hands of a boy

Who was lost on the side of the road

She ain't coming back now

It ain't ever seen a hat get thrown

'Cross a cab when the truth came out

It ain't ever had salt from a teardrop fall on the floorboard

Or heard the heart scream it could've done more

When the good went bye in a cloud of dust

And left a good guy broke down in a truck

Oh, broke down in a truck

It ain't ever seen a face in the hands of a boy

Who was lost on the side of the road

She ain't coming back now

It ain't ever seen a hat get thrown

'Cross a cab when the truth came out

It ain't ever had salt from a teardrop fall on the floorboard

Or heard the heart scream it could've done more

When the good went bye in a cloud of dust

And left a good guy

Broke down in a truck
