Tailgate Down
words & music: Joshua Vandercar

Sitting in the back of a pickup truck
In a moment meant for us
With the tailgate down
Dragging feet along the ground

Tossing rocks just for the fun of it
Watch until into the ditch they skip
It's mile after mile
Smile after smile

Rolling down the road, you & me
Under sunny (sunset) skies living life so blissfully
They say we're chasing the wind
I say we got everything we need

Looking out across the flattened fields
Where our shadows disappear
As the day fades
And the sky is painted

Dusty orange, tarnished purples, and gray
And blue of every shade
Until the stars begin to shine
Down on this countryside
