Beat Up Ford Lyrics
by Jack Ingram
(Acoustic)
Chords: **I saw Jack at an acoustic show
G D C9 C and he used a C9 with a hammer on
-3- -2- -3- -0- the second fret with his index
-3- -3- -3- -1- finger. (he only hammers during
-0- -2- -0- -0- the verse and not the chorus)
A young man driving down a dusty road
Like he??s got somewhere to go
Driving like he??s got a destination
Like he??s got somewhere to go in that beat-up Ford
There was a time when he was a young lost soul
He was chasing butterflies and rainbows
Until one day when he found his pot of gold
In the words of a young man who turned old
You??ve gotta have a good imagination
If you??re gonna live the life of old
You??ve got to drive that Ford like it??s a stallion
And you??ve got to wear your heart just like a gun
The old man sa---id
The old man sa---id
The boy walked out with a new-found hero
The boy, he walked away a man
And he said to himself that dusty day way down in Texas
I??m never gonna walk this path again
(CHORUS)
The boy walked out he was dreaming of wild times
When old cowboys, they broke down cattle lines
Now all those fields are all but gone
But his heart??s still free and he rides on
The old man sa---id
The old man sa---id
The old man sa---id
A young man driving down a dusty road
Like he??s got somewhere to go
Driving like he??s got a destination
Like he??s got somewhere to go in that beat-up Ford
