My First Car from "Blue Guitar"

My first car, was the one I am claiming to be By far, a kind of automotive sincerity My friends, and the strangers who lived in my street Would laugh, at what they called my 'Italian Mercedes'

And it may be hard to insure Mechanically there's problems galore And there might be some rust in the door ... my first car

I'd drive, just to burn up my fuel everyday I laughed, when I broke the economy gauge I'll go, out to Melton and skate if I want Head down, to the corner and buy a croissant

And it may be hard to insure The motor may fall through the floor But I'm gonna pull chicks now for sure ... my first car

I think back, to the days of the manual shift The big six helped me get through my apprenticeship And now, since I'm so damn mature I can't Go crazy, like I did in my Valiant

It used to be hard to insure It looked cool with the 'widies' for sure And the Hemi made a thundering roar ... my first car
