My buddy Blake was All-State With dreams of the NFL Jenny McClain had big brains She got a scholarship to Yale Then there was Hershel
Did two commercials And he was going to be a movie star But all I wanted was a car All I wanted was a car
Had a part-time job Making chicken kabobs At the food court at the mall I hauled my uncle´s trash I cut my neighbor´s grass And I raked the leaves in the fall My parents they were stunned How this former lazy bum Suddenly was working so hard But all I wanted was a car All I wanted was a car
When I was sixteen
All of my dreams Revolved around one thing All I wanted was a car All I wanted was a car
When I finally got That big hunk of steel Those four wheels under me I went everywhere in it Broke the speed limit And I even broke in the back seat
Now when I look outside Sitting in the drive It blows my mind to see An SUV and a sedan And two kids playing And I can´t believe
They all belong to me When I caught their momma´s eye In that old thing I used to drive I never dreamed It would take me this far All I wanted was a car
When I was sixteen All of my dreams Revolved around one thing All I wanted was a car All I wanted was a car
When I was sixteen All of my dreams Revolved around one thing All I wanted was a car All I wanted was a car
