By now I think I've heard every line

There is to hear 'bout a truck

And I've got the point that the beer tastes good

When you're down on your luck

But don't get me wrong a summer song

Sounds good when you're on the shore

But every now and then I wanna dig in

And hear something that means something more.

Like a mama's love even when she don't approve

Four generations sittin' on the same church pew

A soldier's first steps back through his own front door

Yeah, something that means something more.

It's amazing how this old guitar

Can say so many things

It can laugh, it can cry

It can bring you fortune and fame

But now as I'm sittin' down strummin' out these chords

I'm praying that it's saying

Something that means something more.

Like a long lost friend on the other end of the line

A daddy's eyes when he holds his baby for the first time

Grandpa goin' to meet grandma and the lord

Yeah, something that means something more.

Saying "I do," puttin' that ring on

Gettin' the news that the cancer's gone

Knowing that man up on the cross in a crown of thorns

Yeah, something that means something

Oh, something that means something

Something that means something more

Something more.
