I don't own nothin' new
I might look like a mess to you
But I'm solid
This ol' thing I drive around
Got some rust, makes some funny sounds
But it's paid for and solid
You may think I'm way too chill
But I get it done, got my daddy's will
And I'll always, I'll always keep a promise
In a great big world, spinnin' around
People walkin' around on shaky ground
My foundation's solid
Like a vessel gettin' tossed on the big blue sea
Tryin' to rock me off my feet
It's you that keeps me solid
Everybody wants me to think like they do
Put my faith in somethin' new
But this old school is tried and true, it's solid
Got these 501's back in '93
Yeah the blue's all gone, you can see my knees
But to me man, they're still solid
This old scarred-up piece of wood
Sounds a lot better than it looks
I can't count the nights that it's caught me when I was fallin'
In a great big world, spinnin' around
People walkin' around on shaky ground
My foundation's solid
Like a vessel gettin' tossed on the big blue sea
Tryin' to knock me off my feet
It's you that keeps me solid
It's been a lotta years since I've taken this road home
It's still not paved, Mama and Daddy's gone
But the gravel in my soul is solid
