Tough As A Pickup Truck
by: Jim WitterI need a love tough as a pickup truck
And two arms that are strong enough
To hold on tight through a Texas wind
Stick around til the end
I need a kiss sweet as honey from a bee
A touch as soft as a summer breeze
I need a love, love - ou - ove
Tough as a pickup truck
Life is a long long road
Sometimes you can't carry the load alone
Nobody could be that strong
I've learnt that the hard hard way
You only bend so far before you break - I tried
I couldn't carry the weight
So I need a love tough as a pickup truck
Two arms that are strong enough
To hold on tight through a Texas wind
Stick around til the end
I need a kiss sweet as honey from a bee
A touch as soft as a summer breeze
I need a love, love - love - ou - ove
Talk about your love
(solo)
LIFE IN THE RUNNIN' LOW SO LOW, GOIN' NOWHERE FAST
SEARCHIN' FOR SOMETHING'S THAT BUILT TO LAST
TALKIN' 'BOUT A LOVE THAT'S BUILT TO LAST
I'm talkin' 'bout a love tough as a pickup truck
And two arms that are strong enough
To hold on tight through a Texas wind
Stick around til the end
I need a kiss sweet as honey from a bee
A touch as soft as a summer breeze
I need a love, love - love - ou - ove
Tough as a pickup truck
Tough as a pickup truck
Talkin' 'bout your love
