February morning my car won't start today

I turned the key at 8:03

And the battery passed away

Inside a' my automobile



I want my automobile

I want my automobile

I want to drive it

All around this world



Bride's gettin' married in the springtime

Widow's gettin' married in the fall

I got married in high school

Or I wouldn't of got married at all



I'd be drivin' my automobile

Be drivin' my automobile

Be drivin' my automobile

I wanna drive it all around this world



Everybody said to the new groom

Groom, what ya gonna be

I said, I'm gonna be a symphony

Just as soon as I find a key



To my automobile

I want my automobile

I want my automobile

All around this world



Let's take a ride



Columbus sailed the ocean

Moses parted the sea

Dolores left me yesterday

Well, I think she took the key



To my automobile

I want my automobile

I want my automobile

Wanna drive it all around this world



Now, I held a little bitty baby

I held a woman all night

Whenever I get the hiccups

I hold my breath 'til my head gets light



Then, I drive my automobile

Yeah, I drive my automobile

I drive my automobile

I'm want to drive it all around this world



February morning, my car won't start today

Yeah, I turned the key at 8:03

And the battery passed away

Inside a' my automobile



I'm drivin' my automobile

Wanna my automobile

Wanna drive it all around this world

Go on



It is a beautiful day for a ride

Hey, get your head down I can't see anything

Someone give me a cigarette

I don't want to take my hands off the wheel



We ought to take the air filter off this sucker

So we can see what it will really do

Uh oh, it looks to me like a hospital zone

Everybody get quiet, shh



Don't wake the dead up

We're almost out, hang on, uh, oh here we go

Well, you can just hold it until we get to the next town
