BOY I'D LOVE

TO HAVE THAT CAR

I WHISPERED TO MY DAD

I'VE ALWAYS HEARD

A MUSTANG FLIES

WE COULD FIX IT UP

AND MAKE IT NEW AGAIN

ALL IT NEEDS

IS JUST A LITTLE TIME

DADDY'S HARDLY

EVER HOME

SINCE MOMMA

PASSED AWAY

HE'S ALWAYS

WORKIN' OVERTIME

I KNOW

THAT HE CAN NOT

AFFORD TO BUY

THAT CAR

EVEN THOUGH

HE'D LOVE

TO MAKE IT MINE

IT'S NOT THE CAR

THAT I'M NEEDIN'

JUST A CHANCE

TO BE WITH HIM

I KNOW THAT ONCE

THESE DAYS

ROLL PAST US

THEY WILL NEVER

COME AGAIN

SO LITTLE TIME

WE SPEND

WAY TOO MUCH APART

THERE WILL ALWAYS BE

A PART OF US

TOGETHER IN THAT CAR

4 BAR

BREAK

I FINALLY LET GO OF THAT

DREAM AND THE TIME

WE COULD HAVE SHARED

IT WAS A DISTANT

MEMORY

UNTIL LAST FALL

A CALL CAME

SAYIN' DAD WAS GONE

WOULD I COME QUICK

HE LEFT A NOTE FOR ME

BURIED DAD

RIGHT NEXT TO MOM

UP ON CROWLEY'S RIDGE

AND THERE I SAID

MY LAST GOODBYE

I OPENED UP THE NOTE

AND FOUND

A SET OF KEYS

HERE'S YOUR CAR SON

I HOPE IT FLIES

IT'S NOT THE CAR

THAT YOUR NEEDIN'

IT'S MY CHANCE

TO BE WITH YOU

I HOPE YOU

UNDERSTAND

I ALWAYS DID

THE BEST

THAT I COULD DO

SO LITTLE TIME

WE SPENT

WAY TOO MUCH

APART

AND THERE WILL

ALWAYS BE

A PART OF US

TOGETHER

IN THAT CAR

THERE WILL ALWAYS BE

A PART OF US

TOGETHER

IN THAT CAR
