on a bench in city square
Some good old boys in a beat -up Ford
He rolled the smoke and lit it up
And slowly rubbed his cheek
And he said, I had a truck like that
Greased like me on a summer night
Wild as the wind, she was fast
And I was young and so alive
She rode away with my heart
But I got the ride of my life
Cause I had a truck like that
He talked about the good times
In the spring of fifty -three
And a flood of long lost memories
And a pretty girl with long dark hair
walked by across the street
And a far away look crossed his face
and he stared down at his feet
And he said, I had a girl like that,
like jasmine on a summer night
Wild as the wind, she was fast,
She ran away with my heart,
but I had the time of my life
Cause I had a girl like that
And he stood up and stretched his legs
And strolled on down the street
I leaned back and closed my eyes
Remembering how sweet it was
When I had a girl like that
Like jasmine on a summer night
Wild as the wind she was fast
She ran away with my heart
But I had the time of my life
I just smiled again as it took me back
Cause I had a girl like that
Some long lost memories you
