Broke Down In A Truck Lyrics by Kameron Marlowe
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
