Jacob Jeffrey Jones
Was a triple threat
Had his pick of the girls in the twelfth grade
Kathleen Susan Clark
Was his drug of choice
He lived to take her out on a Friday night
Bagging groceries
Saving up his cash
To buy a car for the drive-in movies
But there's no such thing as a '42 Ford
No such thing as a '42
No such thing as a '42 Ford
Old Henry wasn't building cars that year
Every science class
Jacob passed her notes
Scribbled lines about his plans
Underneath the stars
He could hold her hand
As they watched the silver screen
Bagging groceries
Saving up his cash
To buy a car for the drive-in movies
But there's no such thing as a '42 Ford
No such thing as a '42
No such thing as a 42' Ford
Old Henry wasn't building cars that year
Walking after school
Jacob checks the mail
No love letters just a notice
Time to go to war
Serve your Uncle Sam
Time to go and be a man
With his last goodbye
Came a wedding ring
I'll be back for the drive-in movies
But there's no such thing as a 42' Ford
No such thing as a '42
No such thing as a 42' Ford
Old Henry wasn't building cars that year
Old Henry wasn't building cars that year
