Dale Jr. Lyrics


Last night in Carolina, I went back to Daytona beach
A Sunday in ’98 watching you watch number 3
And dad I’ve played some damn cool places I wish you coulda seen
But I know you were up there with a racin’ heart like me

‘Cause last night I met Dale Junior
Backstage at a show
We drank a few Bud Heavy’s
And he said, man you know
Who should be here right now
With his arm round my back
We didn’t talk about gold records
Or all of his checkered flags
Naw we just did what missin’ dad son’s do
Yeah last night I met Dale Junior
And all we talked about was Senior and you
Yeah Senior and you

I said Imma go ahead and tell you sorry for
The way my old man gave your old man hell in heaven for not drivin’ a Ford
And I know you woulda asked him ’bout the motors in the cars
But while the band was breakin’ down, we had a broken heart to heart

Last night I met Dale Junior
Backstage at a show
We drank a few Bud Heavy’s
And he said, man you know
Who should be here right now
With his arm round my back
We didn’t talk about gold records
Or all of his checkered flags
Naw we just did what missin’ dad son’s do
Yeah last night I met Dale Junior
And all we talked about was Senior and you

We took a picture on my phone
And I wanted to send it to
The biggest number 3 fan I knew
Yeah dad that’s you

Last night I met Dale Junior
Backstage at a show
We drank a few Bud Heavy’s
And he said, man you know
Who should be here right now
With his arm round my back
We didn’t talk about gold records
Or all of his checkered flags
Naw we just did what missin’ dad son’s do
Yeah last night I met Dale Junior
And all we talked about was Senior and you
Senior and you
