Great Big American Car Lyrics - Hooters

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
