lyrics

Old Man Car

Drive an old man car, down the right hand lane
Drive an old man car, with an old man name
Called a Century, one hundred years
Drive an old man car full of tears

Got a cassette deck, no mp3
Got a cassette deck, sound good to me
No hyped up bass, just loud and clean
Got a cassette deck, know what I mean?

Well the Porches blow, right on by
And the motor bikes, man they just fly
Old man car, down the right hand lane
Old man he ain't gonna change

Don't need the speed, got the Dynaride
When I hit a bump, I don't pay no mind
I just glide along, with the windows down
Got the Dynaride I get around

Well the Beamers blow, blow right on by
Yeah and the motor bikes, oh they just fly
Old man car, down the right hand lane
Old man he ain't gonna change
Ain't gonna change
Here we go
