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 kebobs   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   Suddenly was workin' so hard.      Chorus:   But all I wanted was a car, all I wanted was a car   Yeah, when I was sixteen all my dreams revolved around one thing   All I wanted was a car, all I wanted was a car.      --- Instrumental ---      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, 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:   All I wanted was a car, all I wanted was a car   Yeah, when I was sixteen all my dreams revolved around one thing   All I wanted was a car, all I wanted was a car.      Chorus:   All I wanted was a car, all I wanted was a car   Yeah, when I was sixteen all my dreams revolved around one thing   All I wanted was a car, all I wanted was a car.      Chorus:   All I wanted was a car, all I wanted was a car   Yeah, when I was sixteen all my dreams revolved around one thing   All I wanted was a car, all I wanted was a car...
