'73 Beetle

[Verse 1]

Well, I remember stallin' out in the driveway just learnin' how

To work a clutch and ease out on the gas

It wasn't much to talk about, all dented up and broken down

But I was still a wide eyed boy, just proud of what I had

When I turned fourteen, and Daddy told me

That we could make it mine, me and him would make her shine

[Chorus]

That good ol' '73 Volkswagen Beetle

The one that me and my old man always dreamed about

There in that passenger seat, I can always see him

I roll the windows down and take the long way to the house

'Cause there's no place that I'd rather be

Than drivin' that '73 Volkswagen Beetle

That Volkswagen Beetle, yeah

[Verse 2]

Yeah, a bunch of time and money spent, and somehow, we just never did

Finish that old hot rod up while we had the chance

'Cause I moved out and life moved on, next thing I knew, my dad had gone

Home to be with Jesus, it was hard to understand

Just what the hours spent in that garage would mean to me

Now every Sunday chance I get, I ride around and sing in

[Chorus]

That good ol' '73 Volkswagen Beetle

The one that me and my old man always dreamed about

There in that passenger seat, I can always see him

I roll the windows down and take the long way to the house

'Cause there's no place that I'd rather be

Than drivin' that '73 Volkswagen Beetle

That Volkswagen Beetle, yeah

[Bridge]

Now I got myself a couple boys of my own

I'll pass it down, we'll ride around

The way we used to roll in

[Chorus]

That good ol' '73 Volkswagen Beetle

The one that me and my old man always dreamed about

There in that passenger seat, I can always see him

I roll the windows down and take the long way to the house

'Cause there's no place that I'd rather be

Than drivin' that '73 Volkswagen Beetle

That Volkswagen Beetle

[Outro]

Oh, we'll ride around

In that Volkswagen Beetle
