Текст песни: The Dashboard + перевод

We laughed and joked in the cab of his truck

Just my brother and me

The night before he shipped out overseas

A leatherneck, Jarhead Marine

He said «the Radiator leaks

And the timing-belt is worn

But the Heart and Soul of this old beat up truck

Is The Dashboard.»

«It's seen a lot of tan legs

Got a kick ass radio

Heard a lot of singing along with some country songs

And rock and roll

Got a .38 bullet hole, courtesy of Kate Tillman’s dad

A lot of scotch tape marks from holding timeless photographs.»

He said «If I don’t come back

You can have this Ford

Just tape a picture of me, on the dashboard.»

He said «The paint is peeling off

It’s got dents in both the doors

If something happens to me

Don’t hang a for-sale sign above the dashboard.»

«It's seen a lot of tan legs

Got a kick ass radio

Heard alot of singing along with some country songs

And rock and roll

Got a .38 bullet hole, courtesy of Kate Tillman’s dad

Alot of scotch tape marks from holding timeless photographs.»

He said «If I don’t come back

You can have this Ford

Just tape a picture of me, on the dashboard.»

I Had the Engine overhauled

A paint-job and brand new chrome

I Had her washed and waxed, sittin' in the drive

The day that he came home

I said «Here's the keys

She’s all yours

I fixed everything
