[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
And there was Hershel 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 makin' 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
Suddenly was workin' 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
All I wanted was a car
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 playin'
And I can't believe they all belong to me
When I caught their mama's eye in that
Old thing I used to drive
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
All I wanted was a car
(Sixteen, all of my dreams)
All I wanted was a car
(Revolved around one thing)
All I wanted was a car
All I wanted was a car
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 gonna be a movie star
But all I wanted was a car
All I wanted was a car
Had a part-time job makin' 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
Suddenly was workin' 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
All I wanted was a car
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 playin'
And I can't believe they all belong to me
When I caught their mama's eye in that
Old thing I used to drive
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
All I wanted was a car
(Sixteen, all of my dreams)
All I wanted was a car
(Revolved around one thing)
All I wanted was a car
All I wanted was a car
