This song was one of those songs that just came together quickly for me, Looking around at all the stuff you dont throw away on a farm made me realize they all had some kind of meaning to them. So with that the lyrics just came out. So next time your looking at cleaning your junk out, really look at it, sometimes there is a reason its still here.
Lyrics
I Can't Throw Them Out
Ed Sullivan III
6/22/2026
Broke down tractor on the front lawn
Rusted plow sitting out in the rain
57 chevy that my grandpa left me
Sitting on the hoods a broken window pane
She looked at me and shook her head
Fix it up or take it out with the trash
I can't do that, no, They all have a story
A story that comes straight from our past
(Chorus)
That old tractor pulled the hayride
The one where we had our very first kiss
I remember plowing that back forty
When your water broke and we had our first kid
Grandpa's 57 he let us drive it on our wedding day
You see that broken old window pane
Was the first thing we replaced in this house
Those things tell all our stories
Yeah I cant throw them out
I looked at her and I saw tears on her face
Now she knows why I held tight
To the junk she saw today
(Chorus)
That old tractor pulled the hayride
The one where we had our very first kiss
I remember plowing that back forty
When your water broke and we had our first kid
Grandpa's 57 he let us drive it on our wedding day
You see that broken old window pane
Was the first thing we replaced in this house
Those things tell all our stories
Yeah I cant throw them out
Yeah those things tell all of our stories
Yeah I cant throw them out
