Lyrics
Lincoln Log Guy

I drive a '68 pickup truck, It suits me just fine.
And I still wear this old wristwatch, hell it keeps good time.
I don't care much for zombie flicks, unless they're black and white.
And I think Merle Haggard's outta sight.
People say I should change my ways, try to embrace these modern days.
But if I did, then I might lose the ones I care about.
Yeah, I'm still with the one I love, she's an old-fashioned girl.
I'm a Lincoln log guy, in a Lego world.
I know I should do my best, to try to update my style.
But every change I try to make is hard to reconcile.
You can say old fashioned, I'll just say well-aged.
And I think Johnny Cash is still the rage.
People say I should change my ways, try to embrace these modern days.
But if I did, then I might lose the ones I care about.
Yeah, I'm still with the one I love, she's an old-fashioned girl.
I'm a Lincoln log guy, in a Lego world.
I may not be a modern man, but I'm who I choose to be.
And I've still got the ones I love surrounding me.
People say I should change my ways, try to embrace these modern days.
But if I did, then I might lose the ones I care about.
Yeah, I'm still with the one I love, she's an old-fashioned girl.
I'm a Lincoln log guy, in a Lego world.
Yeah, I'm a Lincoln log guy, in a Lego world.
