The Car Lyrics

The Car

Boy, I'd love to have that car

I wispered to my Dad

I always heard a mustang flies

we could fix it up and make it new again

all it needs is just a little time

dad is hardly ever home 

since momma passed away

he's always working over time

I know that he can not 

afford to buy that car

even though 

he'd love to make it mine



it's not the car that I'm needing

just a chance to be with him

I know that once these days roll passed us

they will never come again

so little time and we spend way too much a part

there will always be a part of us

together in that car



I finally let go of that dream 

and the time we could have shared 

it was a distand memory

until last fall a call came to say that dad was gone

could I come quick

he left a note for me

buried dad right next to mom 

up on crowlies ridge

and there I said my last goodbies

I opened up the note and found a set of keys

here's your car son

i hope it flies



it's not the car that I'm needin'

just a chance to be with him

I hope you understand I always did

the best that I could do

so little time and we've spent way to much apart

but there will always be apart of us

together in that car

there will always be apart of us...

together in that car
