Brad Paisley All I Wanted Was A Car Lyrics

All I Wanted Was A Car Lyrics

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 Herschel

Who did two commercials

And he was gonna be a movie star

But all I wanted was a car

All I wanted was a car



Had a part time job making chicken for Bob's

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 workin' so hard

But all I wanted was a car

All I wanted was a car



Yeah, when I was sixteen

All 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 underneath

I went everywhere in it, broke the speed limit

And I even broke in the backseat



Now when I look outside

Sittin' in the drive, it blows my mind to see

An SUV and a Sedan and two kids playing

And I can't believe that they all belong to me



When I caught their momma's eye

In that old thing I used to drive

Never dreamed it would take me this far

All I wanted was a car



When I was sixteen

All my dreams revolved around one thing

All I wanted was a car

All I wanted was a car

All I wanted was a car

All I wanted was a car

All I wanted was a car
