Brad Paisley All I Wanted Was a Car Lyrics

My buddy Blake was All-state,
with dreams of the NFL.
Jenny McClain had big 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 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 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.
