I found a west coast bird guide while cleaning out my grandpas old truck.
It was covered in mold like everything else
cause I hadn’t driven the car enough and it had some sort of leak.
Well it smelled like rot and damp hay
it smelled like an Oregon winter day
it felt like the first week in April when the suns peekin' out
over a clouds shoulder
and I went inside to see my wife and my beautiful baby girl
And thought about the the birds my late grandpa saw with the book
Well I didn’t know him well at all but it’s ok cause very few of us did
But the car he left me is an 05 stick shift
The first time I drove it was a 5 hour drive from Portland
stalled out in traffic
Now it’s the car I drive around like he did
workin the same gears
cruising down the 199 up and downshifting
Down down down shifting
From 5 to 4
and I’m down down down shifting from 4 to 3
and i'm Down down down shifting
