back of the ute

Verse 1 Pile in the back of the ute with our mates Laughter too loud for the old estate Stars overhead, mozzies in the air But with you by my side, I don’t really care Chorus Back of the ute, hearts on fire Teenage love and a small-town choir We don’t need money, don’t need much truth We’ve got forever in the back of the ute Verse 2 Footy boots muddy, still sitting on the tray Kicking ’round stories from the game we played Old Bluetooth speaker’s got a country song Everybody sings, and we all sing wrong Chorus Back of the ute, hearts on fire Teenage love and a small-town choir We don’t need money, don’t need much truth We’ve got forever in the back of the ute Bridge Maybe one day we’ll be grown and gone But these Friday nights will still play on A memory made where the gum trees sway And your hand in mine takes me back that way Chorus Back of the ute, hearts on fire Teenage love and a small-town choir We don’t need money, don’t need much truth We’ve got forever in the back of the ute Outro The engine’s off, but our dreams still run Under Southern stars, two hearts as one Doesn’t take much when I’m here with you Forever feels real in the back of the ute
