Song Description

Reminising about teanage life in the 50s and 60s about his first car, while sitting in his last car..

Lyrics

When I was young, I fell in love
With a red and cream T Bird
The first time I drove it home
I knew, it would change my world
From here on in, this car would teach me
The things I needed to know
About living, and loving
It was time to take control

Chorus
T Bird times were full of life
n' Rock n' Rolling girls (T Bird Times, T Bird Times)
T Bird times with greased back hair
Bobby socks and Pony tails
T Bird Times have been and gone
But I'll never forget those days
My T Bird times with the top rolled down
Just blowing my cares away

Well my 'Bird took me to dances
And listened to me sing
Heard me cuss and swear, oh lord
And never said a thing
Who else could've put up
With my first attempt at love
That big back seat was jumping
When I called her my Turtle Dove

Now I'm sitting here, in my Cadillac
There's no harm in looking back
I can close my eyes, and smell the red leather seats
I can see that big shinny bumper, and me behind the wheel
A girl on my arm, and kiss I'm trying to steal
Oh lord there are times
When I'd sell everything I've got
For those times again, and one last spin,
In that car that meant so much
