about

This is a cover of Dan Seals' song "Old Yellow Car" more in the style of Pat Surface.

lyrics

She weren't much to look at,
she weren't much to ride
She was missing a window
on her passenger side
The floorboard was patched up
with paper and tar
But I really was something
in my old yellow car

An American boy
With his hands on the wheel
Of a dream that was made of
American steel
Though the seats had the smell of
A nickel cigar
I really was something
In my old yellow car

Somewhere in a pile of rubber and steel
There's a rusty old shell of an automobile
And if engines could run on desire alone
That old yellow car would be driving me home

There's the spot where poor Billy
Threw up in his date
And where Larry and Sandy
Could no longer wait
There was no road too winding
And no where too far
With two bucks of gas
And my old yellow car

Somewhere in a pile of rubber and steel
There's a rusty old shell of an automobile
And if engines could run on desire alone
That old yellow car would be driving me home

Take a look at me now
Throwing money around
I'm paying somebody
To drive me down town
Got A Mercedes [A] Benz
With a TV and bar
And God I wish I was driving
My old yellow car

God I wish I was driving
My old yellow car
