Years On It

Grandma spent forty-two years putting up with my grandpa
They drank a scotch at five o'clock every day 'til she was gone
And when I saw him sitting there on the porch drinking for two
I couldn't help but think about me and you

Like a fifty-three pawnshop tele
You can hear it when you bend the strings
You can feel it when a big block chevy throws you back in the seat
You can taste it in the whiskey, smell it in the wine
'Cause good things get better when you give them time
Don't it sound like us, can't wait to see this love
With a few more years on it

Some people hit the honeymoon phase
Then it's on to the next best thing
They burn hot 'til the spark wears off, then pack it all up and leave
But it's the dents, it's those things you fix
It's the memories in the miles
That make you wanna hold on 'cause after a little while

Like a fifty-three pawnshop tele
You can hear it when you bend the strings
You can feel it when a big block chevy throws you back in the seat
You can taste it in the whiskey, smell it in the wine
'Cause good things get better when you give them time
Don't it sound like us, can't wait to see this love
With a few more years on it

Starts with a right knee getting that ground on it
Right hand on the bible swearing those vows on it

Like a fifty-three pawnshop tele
You can hear it when you bend the strings
You can feel it when a big block chevy throws you back in the seat
You can taste it in the whiskey, smell it in the wine
'Cause good things get better when you give them time
Don't it sound like us, can't wait to see this love
With a few more years on it
'Cause you're my whole world
You're gonna be my girl for the rest of my years on it
