Lyrics

I stopped off at the Quicksack, for some beer and cigarettes, The old man took my money as he stared at my Corvette, He said I had one just like her son, in 1963, Til' the man down at the bank took her from me Oh she was hotter than a two dollar pistol, She was the fastest thing around, Long and lean, every young man's dream, She turned every head in town, She was built, and fun, to handles son I'm glad that you dropped in, She reminds me of the one I loved back then Then, I handed him my keys and said, Here take her for a spin The old man scratched his head, And then he looked at me and grinned He said son you just don't understand, It ain't the car I want, It's the brunette in your 'vette that turns me on I had one that was hotter than a two dollar pistol, She was the fastest thing around, Long and lean, every young man's dream, She turned every head in town, She was built and fun to handles, son, I'm glad that you dropped in, She reminds me of the one I loved back then. Lord, she was hotter than a two dollar pistol, She was the fastest thing around, Long and lean, every young man's dream, She turned every head in town, She was built and fun to handles, son, I'm glad that you dropped in, She reminds me of the one I loved back then. She reminds me of the one I loved back then...
