| | When Daddy Let Me Drive Lyrics Artist(Band):Alan Jackson
It's stripe was white It was 18 feet From the bow to the stern light 2nd hand from a dealer in Atlanta I rode up with daddy When he went there to get her Put on a shine Put on a motor Built out of love And made for water Ran it for years Till the transom got rotten A piece of my childhood that'll never be forgotten It was, just an old plywood boat 75 johnson with electric choke A young boy, two hands on the wheel I cant replace the way it made me feel And I would turn it shore line, and, make it wide He'd say, ya can't beat the way an old wood boat rides Just a little lake across the Alabama line But I was king of the ocean, when daddy let me drive Just an old 1/2 ton, short-bed Ford My uncle bought new, in '64 Daddy got it right Cause the engine was smokin' Couple of burnt valves and he had it goin' He'd let me drive her when we'd haul off a load Down a dirt strip, where we'd dump trash Off of Thickpin Road I would sit on the seat And stretch my feet out to the pedals Smiling like a hero that just received his medal It was just an old hand-me-down ford With 3 speed on the column And a dent in the door A young boy, 2 hands on the wheel I can't replace the way it, made me feel And I would press that clutch and I'd keep it right He'd say a lil' slower son you're doin' just fine Just a dirt road with trash on each side But I was Mario Andretti When daddy let me drive Im grown up now 3 daughters of my own I let 'em drive my old jeep Cross the pasture at our home Maybe one day they'll reach back in their file And pull out that old memory And think of me and smile, and say It's just an old worn out jeep With rusty ole floor boards Hot on my feet A young girl, two hands on the wheel I can't replace the way it, made me feel And he'd say, turn it left now, and steer it right Straighten up girl now, you're doin' just fine Just a lil' valley by the river where we'd ride But I was high on a mountain, when daddy let me drive Daddy let me drive Oh he let me drive She's just an old plywood boat with a 75 johnson n'electric choke If you find some error in When Daddy Let Me Drive Lyrics, would you please submit your corrections to me?

Is this review helpful to you? Yes No Memories | Reviewer: bit7 | 9/28/2006 This song & video brings back fond memories of when my daddy let me drive. It started for me in an old 16' outboard boat he'd built himself. Followed by the old Ford tractor on the farm and grandma's '50 Mercury. I can only hope my kids hear this song and see the video with similar memories... Is this review helpful to you?
