[Verse 1]

Well, I got my first truck when I was three

When I turned sixteen, I saved a few hundred bucks

I was cruisin' the town and the first girl I seen

She flagged me down and climbed up in the cab

And said, "I never knew you were a pickup man"
[Chorus]

You can set my truck on fire and roll it down a hill
G
And I still wouldn't trade it for a Coupe De Ville

I got an eight-foot bed that never has to be made

I met all my wives in traffic jams

There's just somethin' women like about a pickup man

Most Friday nights I can be found

In the bed of my truck on an old chaise lounge

You know a cargo light gives off a romantic glow

I never have to wait in line at the popcorn stand
G*
'Cause there's somethin' women like about a pickup man

A bucket of rust or a brand new machine

I met all my wives in traffic jams
