Story Behind The Song

IÂ?ve had the title for years, but the music came to me in two bursts: the first one came to me while I was mowing the grass (I had to dash inside for a tape recorder to capture it), and the second one when I sat down with the guitar to finish it.

Song Description

Car song told about a fast car and an even faster girl. AN INSTRUMENTAL MIX IS ALSO AVAILABLE.

Lyrics

Fast Girl in a Pretty Car

I was hangin' outside a street café--
When she parked her car and headed my way...
She was lost; I knew where she needed to be--
Oh Yeah-She said, "Who needs a map--
You can ride with me...c'mon, c'mon, c'mon..."

So we roared through town with her foot to the floor--
Yeah, we ran three lights at 104--
She was pumpin' and shiftin', wearin' high heels.
She said, "Feel the leather trim...
Watch the RPMs...c'mon, c'mon, c'mon..."

CHORUS:
She's a Fast Girl in a Pretty Car,
Pedal to the medal in a red Jaguar...
She blows by in a flash of light,
All dolled up for the Saturday night...
She's a Fast Girl in a Pretty Car,
Cruisin' 'round town like a movie star...
She sets the mood with the radio on...
Rollin' down the road and a-singin' along...singin' along...singin' along--
Yeah... She's a Fast Girl in a Pretty Car!

The engine was hummin'; her body was tight...
I said, "You need to slow down, take the second right..."
She hit the gas and said, "That's not what I need..."
Oh Yeah! Then she said to me:
"Hold onto your seat...c'mon, c'mon, c'mon..."

CHORUS

She never let me drive!
She never let me drive!
I asked about a dozen times!
She never let me drive--
I wanna drive--c'mon...c'mon...c'mon...

She pulled off the road at the edge of town (Yeah-let's get it on!)
She said, "Ooh-I wanna let my top down" (Yeah-let's get it on!)
She turned off the key, slid closer to me...
Oh Yeah...And all the lights were green,
If you know what I mean...c'mon, c'mon, c'mon..."

CHORUS
