Parkin' This Old Truck

Full Song Lyrics

Parkin' This Old Truck - [Verse 1]

Pulled up to the lot and I seen the spot, Tight little space, Lord, is it or is it not.

Cranked the wheel and I said a little prayer, Old truck's big and the space ain't fair.

[Verse 2]

Back it up slow, mirror check the line, Sweat on my brow, but I'm doin' fine.

Cut it too sharp, gotta pull back out, Folks in the parkin' lot startin' to shout.

[Chorus]

Parkin' this old truck, takes a while, Ain't graceful, but I do it with style.

Three-point turn and a little bit of luck, Parkin' this old truck. [Verse 3]

Got the tailgate hangin' a foot too far, Nearly clipped the mirror off a fancy car.

Owner came out with a worried look, I said "relax, I got this, by the book."

[Verse 4]

Kids in the back seat countin' every try,

"Dad, you got it, dad, just don't be shy." Seventh attempt and I finally slide her in, Whole family cheers like I just did win.

[Chorus]

Parkin' this old truck, takes a while, Ain't graceful, but I do it with style.

Three-point turn and a little bit of luck, Parkin' this old truck.

[Bridge]

This truck's built for haulin', built for the road, Ain't exactly made for a tight little load.

Give me an open field, give me some space, That's where this old girl really shows her grace.

But put her in a spot the size of a dime, And we're gonna be here a little bit of time.

[Verse 5]

So next time you see me creepin' real slow, Backin' up and pullin' forward, to and fro.

Just give me a minute, give me some room, This old truck and me, we'll figure it out soon.[Chorus - Outro]

Parkin' this old truck, takes a while, Ain't graceful, but I do it with style.

Three-point turn and a little bit of luck, Parkin' this old truck.
