I had my rent-a-car flyin' down a two-lane road

He was kicked back workin' on a big R G
A#m F#
Watchin' Gomer Pyle on his little TV
C# G# F#
Took him awhile to even notice me
D#m D#m7/G# G#
Sittin' there I thought to myself
CHORUS:
C#
Old man (Old Man)
A#m
You got one up on me

I'm still lookin' for my shady tree
A#m D#
With your two gas pumps and your color TV
F# D#
Your satisfied as you can be
D#m
Old Man (Old Man)
G# C# A#m C#m A#m
I guess you got one up on me
VERSE:

Well he finally strolled over with a big 'ol smile

Said "How ya doin, son?"

I said "Give me five dollars worth as fast as you can.....
B F# C#
...'cause I'm really in a run."
A#m F# G#
He said "What's your hurry on a day like this?....
A#m F#
If you move too fast, there's a lot you'll miss.....

If you wanna see what the good life is.....

Just get out and visit awhile."
