Lyrics

Like that '54 Gibson stored in the corner Got chipping paint, still sings the same when I hold her Been my crutch, fought my battles, stuck around when things unraveled Has just as much of a future as a past Some things are built to last Or that '68 Ford that waits in the driveway May take some luck, but it fires up like yesterday Been down that road and seen some miles, found forgiveness in a motel bible Runs on prayers and ten dollars worth of gas Some things are built to last We'll go on and on through the wear and tear But there will come a time When our best days have up and gone Girl you will still be mine It'll take wrinkles and rust to build a love like that We were built to last In '72 they said I do and they made their get away Tied the knot and coke-a-cola cans dragged behind that mustang They didn't know where they were heading, just knew there was life out there for the getting Just like theirs our years will go by fast Some things were built to last We'll go on and on through the wear and tear But there will come a time When our best days have up and gone Girl you will still be mine It'll take wrinkles and rust to build a love like that We were built to last Solid as steel, set in stone Love is stronger than the things we own We'll go on and on through the wear and tear But there will come a time When our best days have up and gone Girl you will still be mine It'll take wrinkles and rust to build a love like that We'll go on and on through the wear and tear But there will come a time When our best days have up and gone Girl you will still be mine It'll take wrinkles and some rust to build a love like that We were built to last
