Lyrics

'57 CHEVY

I was workin’ real hard
And the stress got heavy
The system crashed
And the boss was on the line

I looked out the window
And I saw that Chevy
I wondered who was drivin’
That car so fine

Well, he beamed in the sun
Lookin’ up at the sky
The answer to my prayer
It seemed he was alone

I couldn't help but stare
He really caught my eye
I thought I'd go and ask him
If he'd drive me home

I took off to find out
Let me tell you this, he was no Boy Scout

Baby, take me now in your '57 Chevy
It don't matter if it's rainin’ outside
We can run away in your '57 Chevy
Come on baby, let's go for a ride

Well, he moved like a cat
Was smooth like molasses
We drove all day
I felt so good by his side

He looked so cool
In his dark sun glasses
I had a wild thought that
I could be his bride

He smiled and took my hand
His gentle touch was more than I could stand

Baby, take me now in your '57 Chevy
It don't matter if it's rainin’ outside
We can run away in your '57 Chevy
Come on baby, let's go for a ride

We drove until the sun
Was settin’ really low
I turned and said:
"How 'bout Mexico?"




Well, the day turned to night
And we headed on back
I had to work early
Had to be there on time

I knew that it was late
But I kinda got off track
And how could this much fun
Ever be a crime?

I didn't want him to leave
So I just kept tuggin’ on his sleeve

Baby, take me now in your '57 Chevy
It don't matter if it's rainin’ outside
We can run away in your '57 Chevy
Come on baby, let's go for a ride

Baby, take me now in your '57 Chevy
Cruisin’ the back roads and the countryside
We can fall in love in your '57 Chevy
Come on baby, let's go for a ride

Come on baby, let's go for a ride
Come on baby, let's go … for a ride

“Yeah let's go for a ride”
