Chris Young lyrics : "Flashlight"

He'd say son hold it still
Keep that beam shining straight
He'd have a 9/16 in one hand workin on that Chevrolet

It seemed like every Saturday
Soon as the sun went down
We'd be huddled underneath that hood

Tinkerin' around
And of all the fun great memories I had
The best ones are those nights

Just me and my dad

He'll never know how much he taught me

Out in that garage
And I guess the stuff that stuck
Was more about life than fixing cars

Cause to this day
I still can't make them run right
But I sure did learn a lot

Just holding the flashlight

He told me a lot of stories

About grandpa and the war
While he was tryin' to show me
What a carburetor's for

And I learned a couple curse words
When he skinned his knuckles up
And I found out mama was the only girl

He ever really loved
But when I asked him about women
He just laughed

If we stayed out here all year
We wouldn't have time enough for that


He'll never know how much he taught me
Out in that garage
And I guess the stuff that stuck

Was more about life than fixing cars
Cause to this day
I still can't make them run right

But I sure did learn a lot
Just holding the flashlight


Now to this day
I still can't make them run right
But deep inside I know that's all right

Cause I sure did learn a lot
Just holding the flashlight
