LYRICS:  (i've written out every word he says)

  an old Chevy.  make me a... make me a
  an old Chevy.  make me a... make me a
  an old Chevy.
  where in the world would i go
  how do i explain your body to the rest of my day
  not as good as the interstates are
  i just can't take you that far.  away.  so stay.
  make me a... make me a... make me a... an old Chevy
  make me a... make me a... an old Chevy
  make me a... make me a... an old Chevy
  where in the world would i go
  how do i explain your body to the rest of my day
  not as good as the interstates are
  i just can't take you that far.
  maybe dick clark and davey and davey and davey
  move a car but not as good as the interstates
  not as good as the interstates are
  i just can't take you that far.  away.  so stay.
