Lyrics
Chevy Song
Chorus
I had a car - it was called Chevrolet
The body was blue - the fenders were gray
The horn didn't blow - the wheels were all clay
Have you ever been riding - in my Chevrolet
Verse
My brothers and I - had a really great time
On the back fourty - learning how to drive
We bought an ole chevy - for one hundred twenty five
The paint did't match - but man that car could fly
Chorus
I had a car - it was called Chevrolet
The body was blue - the fenders were gray
The horn didn't blow - the wheels were all clay
Have you ever been riding - in my Chevrolet
Verse
We took it out - last Friday night
We rolled it over - man what a ride
We busted the windows - we even broke the door
We rolled it on it's wheels - and drove around some more
Chorus
I had a car - it was called Chevrolet
The body was blue - the fenders were gray
The horn didn't blow - the wheels were all clay
Have you ever been riding - in my Chevrolet
Verse
We took it out - on a Saturday night
The moon was shining - just like last night
Up jumped a tree - n stood in my way
That was the end - of my Chevrolet
Chorus
I had a car - it was called Chevrolet
The body was blue - the fenders were gray
The horn didn't blow - the wheels were all clay
Have you ever been riding - in my Chevrolet
