Coffee burns the counter top
Night shift never wants to stop
Tow truck idles by the door
Repo man wants something more
Summer dust on vinyl seats
Repo summer repo summer
Keys left hanging on the number
Dusty dash and faded chrome
Driving ghosts back toward home
Repo summer rolls alone
Grease stains map the paper tray
Regulars don't need to say
Silverado missed three pays
Blue light flashes through the haze
Summer dust on vinyl seats
Repo summer repo summer
Keys left hanging on the number
Dusty dash and faded chrome
Driving ghosts back toward home
Repo summer rolls alone
Harmonica hums low and mean
Pedal steel cries unforeseen
Upright bass walks slow and deep
Promises the night don't keep
Summer dust on vinyl seats
Repo summer repo summer
Keys left hanging on the number
Dusty dash and faded chrome
Driving ghosts back toward home
Repo summer rolls alone
Ticket pinned beneath the plate
Fortune turns on twist of fate
Pink slip tucked in visor slot
Dreams get towed to some far lot
Summer dust on vinyl seats
No fluorescent hum no city glow
Just headlights cutting through the snow
Of summer past that won't release
The weight of broken leagues
Engine coughs and calls it peace
Morning breaks the kitchen door
Short order cooks don't keep the score
But repo man knows every name
Every mile and every claim
Summer dust on vinyl seats
Repo summer repo summer
Keys left hanging on the number
Dusty dash and faded chrome
Driving ghosts back toward home
Repo summer rolls alone
Repo summer rolls alone
Gravel spits beneath the wheels
Engine turns over cold
