INTRO
D
I'd hook my wagon to my trike and I'd head across the yard,
C D
In my big sand box where I worked real hard.
Playin' all day with my little toy trucks,
C D
Back hoes, bulldozers, earth movin' stuff.
A
That was my whole life when I was a kid,
G
But when I grew up I guess I never really did.
D
I like big boy toys, motors and lights.
A
Knobs and switches and a four-wheel drive.
D G
Runnin' up the road or crawlin' across the farm,
E A
And when they break down I jack em up in the yard.
G
Pull out my tools, my pride and joy,
D A D D Bm D
Man you gotta love em, big boy toys.
D
Now sometimes baby, you just can't understand,
C D
The mud on my boots and the grease on my hands.
I try to explain how it makes me feel,
C D
The awesome power of my hands on the wheel.
A
If I can't find the words to set things right,
G
I just scoot over and I let my baby drive.
D
She likes big boy toys, motors and lights.
A
Knobs and switches and a four-wheel drive.
D G
Runnin' up the road or crawlin' across the farm,
E A
And when they break down I jack em up in the yard.
G
Pull out my tools, my pride and joy,
D A D
Man you gotta love em, big boy toys.
G
Its boats and cars, tractors and trucks,
A Am
Gasoline and diesel fuel are runnin' through my blood.
D
I like big boy toys, motors and lights.
A
Knobs and switches and a four-wheel drive.
D G
Runnin' up the road or crawlin' across the farm,
E A
And when they break down I jack em up in the yard.
G
Pull out my tools, my pride and joy,
D A D
Man you gotta love em, big boy toys.
A D D Bm D D Bm A D
Man you gotta love em, big boy toys.
