This is a song about a father and son. The life lessons you've learned by you dad, simple as him letting you steer the truck, letting you borrow his truck so you can take a girl on a date, just riding dirt roads hunting and of course you dad letting you drink a cold beer for the first time. This song the son lost his date at the age of 22 but has so many memories from being in this truck.

IN THIS TRUCK
Verse I
In this truck there’s a cross hanging from the rearview, I was 22
In this truck there’s a Radio we used to listen too, some old school
With a bottle cap knob to dial it in and one to turn it up
four more in the ashtray rattling around when I crank it up, in this truck
Chorus
In this truck we had some dam good times on those backroads like the night when I
Drank my first beer, you let me drive instead of steer
In this truck you let me pick up my girl at 16 she was my whole world
And you knew it back then that these memories would never end, in this truck
Verse II
In this truck there’s a gunrack with a 12 gauge and a 4/10
In this truck there’s a proud Dad with his little boy who’s only 10
With his hands on the wheel, I know exactly how it feels, cause
Chorus
In this truck we had some dam good times, on those backroads like the night when I
Drank my first beer, you let me drive instead of steer
In this truck you let me pick up my girl at 16 she was my whole world
And you knew it back then that these memories would never end, in this truck
In this dam old truck
Lead-Chorus
In this truck we had some dam good times, on those backroads like the night when I
Drank my first beer, you let me drive instead of steer
In this truck you let me pick up my girl at 16 she was my whole world
And you knew it back then that these memories would never end
Just like you know it right now as I know your looking down, in this truck
Outro
In this truck, Daddy’s cross is hanging from the rearview, he was 62
