Under The Hood

Rusty dusty pick-up trucks

Old Fords and busted Chevys

Trucks that tear the road apart

And some stuck down the levee

Showing off at the truck show

All polished up and nice

When an old man in a beat up Ford

Looked us over once or twice

It don't matter how the cover looks

It's what's beneath the hood

You may look awful pretty

But, with no power...it's no good

You wanna get the ladies

Remember, it's what's beneath the hood

Although they like a real good ride

There ain't no ride, if there's no wood

I smiled and I watched the gent

Walk and laugh and smile some

He'd mumble something to the girls

And they'd follow to where he'd come

His truck, was old and battered

Wasn't tricked out like the rest

But, when it came to having girls around

This old man was the best

It don't matter how the cover looks

It's what's beneath the hood

You may look awful pretty

But, with no power...it's no good

You wanna get the ladies

Remember, it's what's beneath the hood

Although they like a real good ride

There ain't no ride, if there's no wood

A truck may last a long long time

But you've got to use it right

You've got to check the engine

And try to run it every night

I remember what the old man said

It's about what's there beneath the hood

The girls don't want it pretty

The girls, they want it good.....

It don't matter how the cover looks

It's what's beneath the hood

You may look awful pretty

But, with no power...it's no good

You wanna get the ladies

Remember, it's what's beneath the hood

Although they like a real good ride

There ain't no ride, if there's no wood
