[Verse 1]
I bought that Jeep for a song
Paint peeled like an old tan line
Sunburned orange in the barn
Barely turned a wheel in time
Folks said, "Boy, let it go"
Said the frame was near the end
But I saw a little stubborn hope
In the rust and the bends
[Pre-Chorus]
New belt, new tires
Patch that floor
Every payday
It asked for more
[Chorus]
Worth every dime I spent
Worth every busted wrench
That sunburned orange Jeep
Kept on running back
Worth every mile I drove
Worth every "what's that for?"
When nobody else believed
I believed in that Jeep door
(yeah, that Jeep door)
[Verse 2]
There were Saturdays in the driveway
Grease under both my nails
A borrowed socket, a cold drink
And a list of broken tales
I fixed the seats, the hoses
Got the lights to shine again
Put my hard-earned money in it
Over and over till the end
[Pre-Chorus]
New shocks, new brakes
A little at a time
Every time it coughed
I brought it back to life
[Chorus]
Worth every dime I spent
Worth every busted wrench
That sunburned orange Jeep
Kept on running back
Worth every mile I drove
Worth every "what's that for?"
When nobody else believed
I believed in that Jeep door
(yeah, that Jeep door)
[Bridge]
Now it ain't fancy
Ain't showroom clean
But it took me down
The back road of my dreams
And every dent and scratch
Still tells the truth
Some things only pay you back
If you stay with 'em through
[Final Chorus]
Worth every dime I spent
Worth every busted wrench
That sunburned orange Jeep
Kept on running back
Worth every mile I drove
Worth every "what's that for?"
When nobody else believed
I believed in that Jeep door
(yeah, that Jeep door)
Worth every dime I spent
Yeah, every single cent
