Listening to NRBQ

We started dating during Watergate We would stay up late Trashing Nixon Showed you my collection Of vinyl sides LPs and 45s My addiction And even though it started out With some doubt Things got much better when You took me back to your parents' In the basement den Yours were stacked floor to ceiling Covered every wall Then we made out a little Later that night I drove around with you Listening to NRBQ I had a Charger with a big V8 That mother started great Yeah, it hauled ass It had an after-market stereo With FM radio And an 8-track And together we would ride Side by side That year all summer long And we'd turn on each other To our favorite songs And we'd sing out loud With the windows rolled down And your head on my shoulder And every night I'd drive around with you Listening to NRBQ All summer long Driving around with you Listening to NRBQ I got us tickets on your birthday For a show in Detroit And we drove four hours one way When we got there We sat down in front And started to kiss And then Big Al took a solo And it went like this And now I'm older With a wife and kid Won't believe what I did With my vinyl Put it on eBay and sold all of it And though I regret it All sales final But every now and then You pop in my head And it brings me a smile And yeah I still miss that Charger Every once in a while Though I wouldn't change a thing About the life I have now You know I still keep your picture And I remember Driving 'round with you Listening to NRBQ All summer long Driving around with you Listening to NRBQ I wonder now Will you remember, too All the things we'd do Listening to NRBQ Listening to NRBQ Listening to NRBQ Listening to NRBQ Listening to NRBQ (I love her) (She loves me) (I won't leave her)
