Original Artist - That Old Ford Chords

That Old Ford
Stefanie Padgett
September 12, 2002

Coasting the strip in a rusted out Ford
Bed full of friends, four on the floor 

Barely 18, their only speed was fast 
They'd run it all night ‘til they ran out of gas

Lifting up the hood to get it started, 
It was there Cadillac, never left them brokenhearted

CHORUS
Things might be different than the life they dreamed
Making love behind a glass fully steamed

That old ford took them anywhere they dared to go
Keg parties, peach fields, to the drive-in show

As long as it ran, they’d never be bored
It may not be much, but it was their old ford


Sittin in the backyard, wheels up on blocks
Under the old pine, bed full of flowers

He's working two jobs to put food on the table
With four kids to feed, he thanks God He's able

She don't fuss about an old truck by the fence
It helps her recall freedom she hasn't felt since

CHORUS
Things might be different than the life they dreamed
Making love behind a glass fully steamed

That old ford took them anywhere they dared to go
Keg parties, peach fields, to the drive-in show

As long as they had it, they’d never be bored
It may not be much, but it was their old ford

BRIDGE
It was so long ago, but still in my memory
I see our love in that old ford under the tree

Things might be different than the life we dreamed
Making love behind a glass fully steamed

That old ford took us anywhere we dared to go
Keg parties, peach fields, to the drive-in show

As long as we have it, we’ll never be bored
It may not be much, but it’s our old ford
