My boyfriend is the best

Is this about your car or your wife?

Slaid continues to outdo himself. Thanks for posting.

I pulled the engine with a block and chain Got the oil pump in just before the rain In the gravel drive, it's a Pontiac Come the weekend you'll find me at the track It's a '74, Dad bought it new Still mostly stock and it's rusted through I only worry 'bout what's underneath What she looks like don't mean a damn to me 'Cause you don't need that flash and shine You just need to be hard off the line So keep your lacquer chrome and flames I'll paint mine primer gray Some men are rich, and they'll let you know Some guys act tough, it's all a show I know the things men hold inside We're all about the same when you turn out the lights 'Cause you don't need that flash and shine . . . Dad was pretty fast back in the day "Bring that trophy home now," Mama used to say They sit there on the shelf gathering dust Luck turns to loss, chrome to rust I've got that car detailed and tuned My boy's 16, he'll be driving soon But he won't drive that old '74 Kids today, they all want something more But you don't need that flash and shine You just need to be hard off the line So keep your lacquer chrome and flames I'll paint mine primer gray It's what you do, not what you say I'll paint mine primer gray

A meditation on the meaning of life, and what it means to be a man, disguised as a car song. Disciplined, tasteful, and beautiful guitar work.

Nice

Good song. Like to here it in a deeper voice tho.

My new favorite thing

Mine was yellow zinc chromate. Just not as melodic. :-)

We had a 74 stashed for our son, born in 74...he wanted a Wrangler!

Paint my life Primer Gray.

Love that photo. Well done, GuitarNerd1369.
