Verse 1
F
Well, I got my first truck when I was three
Drove a hundred thousand miles on my knees
Bb

and thought twice before

for the girl next door
C
She tried to pay me with a kiss
and I began to understand
F
There's something women like
about a pickup man
F

Verse 2
F
When I turned sixteen,
I saved a few hundred bucks
My first car was a pickup truck
Bb
I was cruisin' the town and the first girl I see
F
Was Bobbie Joe Gentry,
the homecoming queen
C
She flagged me down
and climbed up in the cab
F
And said, "I never knew
you were a pickup man"
Chorus 1
Bb
You can set my truck on fire
and roll it down a hill
F
And I still wouldn't trade it
for a Coupe de Ville

that never has to be made
C
You know if it weren't for trucks
we wouldn't have tailgates
Bb
I met all my wives in traffic jams
F
There's just something women like
C
about a pickup man

Most Friday nights I can be found
In the bed of my truck
on an old chaise lounge

You know a cargo light
gives off a romantic glow
C
I never have to wait in line
at the popcorn stand
F
'Cause there's something women like
