Great Big American Car Lyrics

Great Big American Car lyrics

I got a beauty in the backyard

She doesn't look like much I know

But man you should have seen her drive

A couple years ago



We had one foot in the cradle

And the other on the gas

And we would run all night

Tryin' to make each moment last



And we'd ride through the darkness

And sometimes we'd go too far

But the good times rolled away too soon

In my great big American car



Now she's on broken down condition

And she's in need of some repair

You know I sure do miss

The shine she used to wear



Well, she was all I ever wanted

And I was all she ever had

And we would carry each other

Through times both good and bad



And we'd ride through the darkness

And sometimes we'd go too far

But the good times rolled away too soon

In my great big American car

In my great big American car



I got a beauty in the backyard

Well, you can call her a dinosaur

But there's a heart still a beatin' there

And baby that's what dreams are for, that's for sure



And we'd ride through the darkness

And sometimes we'd go too far

But the good times rolled away too soon

In my great big American car

In my great big American car, hey hey hey
