Back of My Old Car Lyrics
[Verse 1]
A pretty girl came up to me, "What's that thing supposed to be?"
I stepped back and said with pride, "You'll find out when you step inside
I've done 80 in this one, you can be number 81"
The little darling gave a yell, jumped inside and we went like hell
[Chorus]
In the back of my old car, we won't be travelling far
We'll have a cuddle in the moonlight in the back of my old car
We won't tell your mama, she won't know where we are
You'll be all right if you get inside, I'll give you an economy ride
Everybody's been satisfied in the back of my old car
[Verse 2]
Into first and off we go, me engine shudders when the revs are low
Gaskets blowing, camshaft's worn, gearbox grinds and me hood is torn
Just as she yells out, "Don't stop," I get flagged down by a traffic cop
He said, "My son did you know you were nearly up to 82?"
[Chorus]
In the back of my old car, we won't be travelling far
We'll have a cuddle in the moonlight in the back of my old car
We won't tell your mama, she won't know where we are
You'll be all right if you get inside, I'll give you an economy ride
Everybody's been satisfied in the back of my old car
[Verse 3]
With seatbelts on so very tight, she looks a most attractive sight
Looking for a parking spot in case me big end gets too hot
Me tank is empty, back end sags, all steamed up, exhaust pipe drags
Out of oil, me sump is dry, for one more time we'll have a try

[Chorus]
In the back of my old car, we won't be travelling far
We'll have a cuddle in the moonlight in the back of my old car
We won't tell your mama, she won't know where we are
You'll be all right if you get inside, I'll give you an economy ride
Everybody's been satisfied in the back of my old car
Everybody's been satisfied in the back of my old car
