Me and this old girl, we got history
Blood, sweat, and tears up in this front seat
Lot of life in the rearview and miles of memories, yeah
Been through some headlights, been through some red lights
Duckin' through the small town runnin' from them blue lights
Well under the hood she's been good to me
But tonight I hope she
Breaks down the side of the road with nothin' else runnin' but the radio
You and me girl, no one else around
I wouldn't mind if this engine died right here, right now
It'd would be right on time
'Cause the way you're lookin' at me right now
It's got me hopein' that she breaks down, yeah
I think it's cool that you think she's pretty
You lookin' pretty too in that shotgun seat
Like the way you let the window and your hair down
Slidin' up next to me
How you wanna know how fast she goes
She ain't close to slow and I'm hopin' she goes up in smoke right now
I'm hopin'
Breaks down the side of the road with nothin' else runnin' but the radio
You and me girl, no one else around
I wouldn't mind if this engine died right here, right now
It'd would be right on time
'Cause the way you're lookin' at me right now
It's got me hopin' that she breaks down, breaks down
I can barely keep my hands on this wheel
Keep my eyes on this highway
I've had this girl for years
Never thought I'd pray she
Breaks down the side of the road with nothin' else runnin' but the radio
You and me girl, no one else around
I wouldn't mind if this engine died right here, right now
It'd would be right on time
'Cause the way you're lookin' at me right now
It's got me hopin' that she breaks down
It's got me hopin' that she breaks down, breaks down
