I was watchin’ cartoons on a Saturday morning | |
And I heard daddy start the truck | |
I came runnin’ from the house and waved him down | |
Cause he was makin’ a run to the dump | |
We watched the Bears and licked ice cream cones | |
Take a little walk around | |
I’ll never forget what my daddy said | |
The day we pulled that bike from the ground | |
He said one man’s trash is another man’s gold | |
If it’s thrown away it’s free to take | |
A little oil she’ll be good to go | |
So I rode that bicycle home | |
Thumbs up, daddy honkin’ on the horn | |
I got my first job workin’ on a dairy farm | |
Drivin’ tractor and bailin’ hay | |
I’d have to circle around a bog in the ground | |
Where sat an old Mustang ‘58 | |
One evenin’ I asked that farmer | |
Why that car was just wastin’ away | |
He said you can have it for free it don’t mean nothin’ to me | |
And I couldn’t help but think | |
One man’s trash is another man’s gold | |
What someone will throw away is a crying shame | |
So I towed that Mustang home | |
Till she could be restored | |
I got that engine to roar | |
And boy did that engine roar | |
It was an awkward blind date we met at a park | |
She had her little girl taggin’ along | |
A beautiful smile hadn’t been out in a while | |
She was a hard working single mom | |
In time I learned he’d left her | |
He said “I’m just way too young | |
To be having a kid, I’m not ready for this | |
If you keep it I’m good as gone” | |
He never looked back as she watched him go | |
She stood there crying in the rain till one January day | |
She had a beautiful baby girl | |
Tonight I tuck her in and read her stories | |
And hold her mama while the sunset glows | |
My two arms full of this man’s gold | |
What some men will throw away is a crying shame | |
Those girls make our house a home | |
Yeah my cup overflows | |
With this man’s gold | |
This man’s gold |
I was watchin' cartoons on a Saturday morning | |
And I heard daddy start the truck | |
I came runnin' from the house and waved him down | |
Cause he was makin' a run to the dump | |
We watched the Bears and licked ice cream cones | |
Take a little walk around | |
I' ll never forget what my daddy said | |
The day we pulled that bike from the ground | |
He said one man' s trash is another man' s gold | |
If it' s thrown away it' s free to take | |
A little oil she' ll be good to go | |
So I rode that bicycle home | |
Thumbs up, daddy honkin' on the horn | |
I got my first job workin' on a dairy farm | |
Drivin' tractor and bailin' hay | |
I' d have to circle around a bog in the ground | |
Where sat an old Mustang ' 58 | |
One evenin' I asked that farmer | |
Why that car was just wastin' away | |
He said you can have it for free it don' t mean nothin' to me | |
And I couldn' t help but think | |
One man' s trash is another man' s gold | |
What someone will throw away is a crying shame | |
