The Car Was The One Lyrics - Get Lucky - Mark Knopfler

In summer sixty three I was staying alive 

Hanging at the races, hoping to drive 

When they were done with the weekend and loading the cars 

I couldn't get a pass so I went to the bar

What's That Line? 

I'm up in the corner nursing a beer 

Who should come laughing and joking in here 

But Bobby Brown, the winner of the sports car race 

With some friends and a girl, man, she lit up the place 

Bobby was a wild boy, one summer 

He knocked down a motel wall with a hammer 

He'd do anything, one night for a bet 

He raced through the cornfields in a Corvette

I thought it's got to be a thrill to be like that 

With the beautiful girl and be king of the track 

But the truth is when all was said and done 

It was his Cobra I wanted, the car was the one 

It was his Cobra I wanted, the car was the one
