Muscle Car

Summer nights Mid-july Playing all those songs we love on your old guitar Simple life Peace of mind Driving down the coast with you in your muscles car Ahhhh ahh I was younger She was older Late night talking In the summer Two high school kids who didn't know much about love ouhooh It was 1985 I had my car And I loved to drive But she She was still stuck on mind She was working at the gas station on the corner I pull up with my trans-am just see her Hoping that she'd just give me a chance Dreaming about kids in a yellow mansion I took her for a drive from city to sea As she told "baby please won't you marry me" I pulled over with the wedding ring in my hand Said baby I'll always be your man Summer nights Mid-july Playing all those songs we love on your old guitar Simple life Peace of mind Driving down the coast with you in your muscles car He was handsome Quite a man He had a way of thinking that I didn't understand But his heart Was bigger than the world I was a beauty school lady Just as it seemed He was my high school honey Teenage dream Ill forever be thankful for what I have Lying in the backseat of your trans am baby Summer nights Mid-july Playing all those songs we love on your old guitar Simple life Peace of mind Driving down the coast with you in your muscles car Summer nights Mid-july Playing all those songs we love on your old guitar Simple life Peace of mind Driving down the coast with you in your muscles car Aah - Mmh I see those pretty Colors in your eyes And I remember what you told me that night You said the good days are only good when their over But I miss last summer too As we rode the roads on the east side Like a rolling stone What can I say It's the life that I've always known Guess you need the good old days to give you a little hope Ah, but I remember all the ways it made me feel To be young And in love
