Number Forty-Two Forever

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Down a dusty country road Where the sunrise paints the fields of gold There's a story carved in every grain A legacy that still remains A brother strong, a heart so true Left footprints in the morning dew [Chorus] Oh, the engine roars, number forty-two Tearing down the track the way he used to do With a Dukes of Hazzard grin And a heart that always shined right through We're celebrating you [Verse 2] Nineteen years old, he took the reins Working Daddy's land through sun and rain A St. Bernard right by his side Faith and family, his quiet pride He gave us love, he gave us safe A steady soul, a gentle place [Chorus] Oh, the engine roars, number forty-two Tearing down the track the way he used to do With a Dukes of Hazzard grin And a heart that always shined right through Steve, we're missing you [Bridge] Megan called him Scuba Steve A name that lives in memory "Later, bye" still rings so clear We feel him close, we know he's near [Verse 3] Andrew, Megan, hold him tight In every star that lights the night His jokes still echo through the years His heart of gold dries every tear The farm still grows, the fields still sway Steve's love is here to stay [Chorus] Oh, the engine roars, number forty-two Racing on through skies of endless blue With a Dukes of Hazzard grin And a heart that always shined right through Steve, we're loving you [Outro] Scuba Steve, you're never gone In every sunrise, you live on Later, bye, but not goodbye We'll meet again someday on high
