lyrics

couple of bucks fills up the tank
step on the gas make her rattle and clank
she growl just like a tiger and pull just like a mule
a wolf in sheeps clothing wearing chain mail wool.

hit Oxnard straight from Costa Mesa
five miles out, someone's taken my place
forget the faces drive on hard
don't need nothing but a six volt car

just keep going
drive on hard
don't need nothing but a six volt car

ran out of gas going up the hill
if it weren't for Bob and little Bill we'd be stuck there still
she's a mean machine a tough old pill
the baddest bunch of bolts on four wheels

ain't got no plan for tomorrow
ain't got no map to follow
she's my baby chrome rubber and steel
ain't got much but she got that feel

don't know where we're going
but we're gonna go far
driving around in a six volt car

can't squeeze me where i don't belong
me and modern technology just don't get along
give me an old angine with the purr and the growl
roll the windows down and together we howl

she's just nuts bolts and screws
i got wrenches drivers and some fuses
there's a bible in the glove box a flask under the seat
registrations been out since seventy-three

don't know where we're going
but we're gonna go far
driving around in a six volt car

old am radio transmission four speed
she's ninety-nine percent rust free
extra correct steering column, ignition switch
oh the smell of gasoline give me pedal foot twitch

just keep going drive on hard
don't need nothing but a six volt car
don't need nothing but a six volt car
