All I Wanted Was A Car Songtext / Lyric

My buddy Blake was all-state with dreams of the NFL
Jenny McClain had big brains, she got a scholarship to Yale
And there was Hershel who did two commercials
And he was going to 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 was suddenly working so hard But all I wanted was a car, all I wanted was a car
Yeah, when I was sixteen all of my dreams revolved around one thing

All I wanted was a car (2x)

When I finally got that big hunk of steel, those four wheels underneath
I went everywhere in it, broke the speed limit
and I even broke in the backseat

Now when I look outside sitting in the drive
It blows my mind to see an SUV and a sedan
And two kids playing and I can't believe they all belong to me
When I caught my mama's eye in that thing I used to drive
I never dreamed it would take me this far

All I wanted was a car
Sixteen all of my dreams revolved around one thing

All I wanted was a car (3x)
