Lyrics
WHAT KINDA CAR? ©2004 Quint Randle/Jeff Hinton
(This is a revised version based on some input from publishers, etc.)
V1
Stuck at a jammed intersection
Waiting in line for the light
When a bearded young man in a beat up old van
Turned and looked me in the eye
Well, the moment ignited a question
And made me reflect on my life
If the Lord came again to live among men
What kinda car would he drive?
V2 (music builds)
Well, a luxury car's too pretentious
Yeah, and SUV's eat too much gas
And all mini-vans and those compact sedans
They're sorely lacking in class
So I pondered and came to an answer
'Bout which wheels would fit Him just right
If the Lord came again to live among men
What kinda' car would He drive?
CHORUS
He'd drive a pickup truck
Carpenter tools in the back
He?d cruise around in that heaven on wheels
Doin' every kind of kindly act
Choppin' wood for the widow next door
Haulin' goods for the hungry and poor
If you were stuck in a rut
He'd lift you up
In His short-bed, step-side, half-ton pickup truck
SHORT SOLO/BRIDGE
It's no limosine
But this machine
Is all He really needs
REPEAT CHORUS 2X (with Crowd)
