What Car Lyrics

VERSE ONE:

My daddy had a 68 Camaro

When I was 16 he went out of town

There were car keys sitting on the pillow

Screaming out

"Come take a drive around"

From here to Linda's all the lights were yellow

Even though she said that we were through

When she saw me in my red Camaro

All she said was

"Let's see what she'll do"

CHORUS:

What car?

What girl?

What tree?

What kerb?

What are you talking about?

I never left the house

What keys?

What crash?

How dare you ask!

The car is gone, move on

Daddy you better move one

VERSE TWO

Monday morning he was in the kitchen

Asking if I had a tale to tell

A certain red collectable was missing

Sorry daddy

That does not ring a bell

Was very late but I agreed to join him

At the scene of the alleged theft

But there's an emptiness you can't ignore

When a stain of oil is

All that you have left

CHORUS

Even if they found the wreckage

Even if they hauled me in

I was sticking to the same old story

Again and again and again and again

CHORUS x2

The years have gone

There's a mark on the tree

I never could tell him

That I took the key

The years have gone

But my daddy doesn't know

I was the one

Who bust his Camaro

Move on

The car is gone

Daddy move on

The car is gone
