Lyrics

His hands were always covered in grease
Just a blue-collared dad, just as tough as he could be
Always strong and steady
Man, he loved those Chevy’s
Mama shook her head when he towed it home
Just a bucket of rust with some metal-bright chrome
But I learned to turn a wrench
And we polished every inch
’Til it shined like olympic gold
There was nothing like the feeling when we finally got it running
And my old man said “let’s take it for a spin”
I was shifting gears and burning gas
My heart was racing, learning fast
On a two-lane blacktop
Set to the backdrop
Of a county road
There was something ‘bout the ride that made me a man
Maybe it was how she felt in my hands
Or the song that was playing through the static on the AM radio
Yeah, there’s something ‘bout 16
In a ’69 Camaro
Her hand was making waves in the wind
With the windows rolled down, summer sun settin’ in
We were two young kids both goin’
Somewhere we had never been
We kept the engine runnin’ on that dead end street
We were trying our luck, breaking in the backseat
We were shifting gears and burning gas
My heart was racing, learning fast
On a two-lane blacktop
Set to the backdrop
Of a county road
There was something ‘bout the ride that made me a man
Maybe it was how she felt in my hands
Or the song that was playing through the static on the AM radio
Yeah, there’s something ‘bout 16
In a ’69 Camaro
Good things come and good things go
Faster than we’ll ever know
There’s something ‘bout ’69 you always want back
Like that girl, that car, and my dad
I was shifting gears and burning gas
My heart was racing, learning fast
On a two-lane blacktop
Set to the backdrop
Of a county road
There was something ‘bout the ride that made me a man
Maybe it was how she felt in my hands
Or the song that was playing through the static on the AM radio
Yeah, there’s something ‘bout 16
In a ’69 Camaro
