Repo Man Was My Best Man

Intro Well, hell. Danny.

Verse 1 Tow truck idling in my gravel Tuesday, quarter after one Danny sitting there not looking Like the man who drew the short gun He stood beside me in a rented tux Caught the ring when Tommy dropped it Now he's holding a work order With my whole name printed on it

Chorus The repo man was my best man Ain't that a country song He carried the rings, now he carries the keys To the last thing that I own Take her easy up the driveway, Dan She pulls a little to the right The repo man was my best man And neither of us slept tonight

Verse 2 We split a six-pack on the tailgate 'Fore he winched her off the ground Talked about the state semifinal Nineteen years and one bad loan back down He said the bank don't know you, brother I said the bank don't know a soul That's how they built it, Danny You can't shame a spreadsheet whole

Chorus The repo man was my best man Ain't that a country song He carried the rings, now he carries the keys To the last thing that I own Take her easy up the driveway, Dan She pulls a little to the right The repo man was my best man And neither of us slept tonight

Bridge He offered me his last twenty I let him keep his pride Some debts a man can't carry And some debts carry you alive

Outro She pulls a little to the right. Watch her on the hill.
