About
Nicky’s Story
Lyrics
Start
Intro
Verse1
Raised in a small town,
With small-town ways,
Hard work and clean cars,
Lunch at the café,
To bed at 9 o’clock,
Party in the parking lot,
Of the local grocery.
Verse2
Saturday morning,
We did the laundry,
Hang them in the wind,
They were dry by ten,
Go to town for a milkshake,
At the Wagon Wheel Drive-in.
Verse3
Girls on bikes,
Boys in trucks,
Nick had a motorcycle,
Everyone noticed,
The engine roared,
As he came flying in,
Verse2
He worked at the Farm Supply
In the grease and gears,
Changing oil and fixing flats,
Staying late working long hours,
It was a place to fix his bike,
Never complained about that,
Verse5
It was one of those Saturdays,
The Sun was going down,
She had a flat on her bicycle
Near the Farm Supply,
Nick saw her pushing her bike,
He yelled out, “Can I help you?”
Verse6
She yelled back, “Oh yes, you can,”
That’s when they really met,
Nick wasn’t a bad guy,
He was filled with passion,
And feelings he didn’t understand,
Just a young boy trying to be a man,
Verse7
From that night, they were never apart,
They ran off and got married,
The town said it would never last,
They were right about that,
Nick didn’t run out she never changed her mind,
Verse8
No, what happened made her lose her mind.
Nick was coming home with ice cream,
She looked down on the highway.
When she heard the sirens scream
She ran to him and for 30 years
The sadness never went away.
Verse9
Then as she was cleaning,
She moved his leather jacket,
A folded note fell from the pocket,
She picked it up and opened it,
It was so long ago but teary eyed,
This is what she read,
Chorus
Honey, I love you so much,
If anything ever happens,
If we lost each other,
You should use your eyes.
To see for me.
Please take me with you.
Tears filled her eyes.
She said to herself,
That the way it will be.
Verse10
She got herself a Harley.
Gathered up some maps.
She had a big party.
Everyone cheered.
She fired up the motor.
And drove right out of there.
