He left his Mercedes Benz, a ruby red from ‘64

We’d wipe that hood clean and push the pedal to the floor

Last night we went out driving to see the fields my grandpa sweat

Keep turning ‘till the day is done

Run, engine, run

For the man who asked for none

He was tied to a tradition from a long time ago

I was sixteen, riding shotgun, it was he, my brother, and I
Bb F C
Along Black Hills gold, the prairie cold, he looked up at the sky
