[Verse 1]
Busted sign on the county line
Your name carved in the dashboard paint
Bench seat rip in the same old place
Where you laughed in my face that night
Back roads humming under bald whitewalls
Fast food cups in the floorboard dust
You said
“Boy
This ain’t about us”
Then you slammed that door and walked
[Chorus]
But I still got that ’67 Chevy running
Still hear your bare feet on that chrome
Still taste July on your lips when I’m gunning
Through a town that never felt like home
Yeah
I lost you on a two-lane
Heavy
But I found my heart in that ’67 Chevy
[Verse 2]
Mixtape stuck on your favorite track
Same three words that I choked right through
Gas light glowing like a warning flare
Guess I drove like I was chasing you
New girl riding in the same old seat
Kicks off her boots
Puts her hand in mine
Says
“You can’t live in a rearview
Baby”
As the yellow lines blur into a sign
[Chorus]
But I still got that ’67 Chevy running
Still hear your bare feet on that chrome
Still taste July on your lips when I’m gunning
Through a town that never felt like home
Yeah
I lost you on a two-lane
Heavy
But I found my heart in that ’67 Chevy
[Bridge]
[Beat drops to kick and claps
Guitar low]
Every dent
Every scratch
Got a story I don’t tell much
Thought the past had the wheel
Till she kissed me at that red light touch (hey)
[Chorus]
Now I still got that ’67 Chevy running
But your ghost don’t ride here anymore
Got a new laugh spilling out that window
Singing along as we hit the roar
Yeah
I left you on that two-lane
Ready
Headed somewhere new in my ’67 Chevy (oh)
Headed somewhere new in my ’67 Chevy
