My buddy Blake was All-state, with dreams of the NFL.
Jenny McClain had pig brains, she got a scholarship to Yale.
Then there was Herschel, who 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 for Bob's at the food court at the mall.
I hauler 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 b__ suddenly was workin' so hard.

(Chorus:)
But all I wanted was a car, all I wanted was a car.
Yeah when I was 16 all my dreams revolved around one thing.
All I wanted was a car, all I wanted was a car.

When I finally got that big hunk of steel, those 4 wheels underneath,
I went everywhere in it, broke the speed limit, and I even broke in the backseat.

Now when I look outside, sittin' in the drive it blows my mind to see an SUV and a Sedan, and two kids playing.
I can't believe that they all belong to me.
When I caught their momma's eye in that old thing I used to drive,
I never dreamed it would take me this far.

(Chorus: x2)
All I wanted was a car, all I wanted was a car.
Yeah when I was 16 all my dreams revolved around one thing.
All I wanted was a car, all I wanted was a car.
