All I Wanted Was a Car

All I Wanted Was A Car

My buddy Blake was All-State

With dreams of the NFL

Jenny McClain had big brains

She got a scholarship to Yale

Then there was Herschel

Did two commercials

And he was gonna be a movie star

But all I wanted was a car

All I wanted was a car

Had a part-time job

Making chicken kebabs

At the food court at the mall

I hauled my uncle's trash

I cut my neighbor's grass

And I raked the leaves in the fall

My parents they were stunned

How this former lazy bum

Suddenly was working so hard

But all I wanted was a car

All I wanted was a car

When I was sixteen

All of my dreams

Revolved around one thing

All I wanted was a car

All I wanted was a car
