Lyrics
But my old jalopy has a mind of its own
Keeps us on our toes, won't leave me alone
With a wink and a nod, I knew what to do
Pushin' and hoppin', girl, I'm comin' for you
Tin cans rattlin', it's a sight to see
But nothin's stoppin' this heart, so wild and free
Well it broke down again, on the main drag, oh darlin'
Gave it a shove in my rolled-up sleeve, so charming
In that old '52, babe, the engine just coughs
But I won't give up, 'cause it's you that I want
Got grease on my hands, and a smile on my face
Trying so hard just to make it to your place
With my slicked hair and a bouquet in hand
We'll cruise tonight, once this engine can stand
She laughed at the sight, me and my old ride
With every bump and jolt, my love couldn't hide
Neighbors cheered, as I gave it a crank
With a little luck, we'd be off to the bank
[Chorus]
We'll be rockin' and rollin', once this engine's alive
Just you wait, babe, we'll take that drive
Well, the engine sputtered, and it gave a loud whine
But I kept on pushin', just biding my time
With my leather jacket and a grin ear to ear
Knew we'd hit the road if I got it in gear
Had my radio tuned to our favorite tune
Ready to dance underneath that moon
