Song Lyrics

Pontiac, Pontiac, out there in my backyard
Gonna fix it up, paint it red, gonna make that engine go
Chevrolet, Chevrolet, the Chevy, it ain't running
Tire's flat, this and that gonna make that engine go

They're all in my backyard, them old cars
I love every one that I get
Mixing gasoline with my NASCAR dreams
Oh, I'm gonna get one running yet
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

I'll get one running yet
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Get one running yet

Ford car, Ford car, Ford car's all rusted
But that Ford car's my favorite car
Gonna make that engine go

Mercury now, Mercury, Mercury's got wings
She's on the blocks but with some borrowed parts
Bound to set her free

They're all in my backyard, them old cars
I love everyone I get
Mixing gasoline with my NASCAR dreams
Oh, I'm gonna get one running yet
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

I'll get one running yet
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Get one running yet
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Oh, I'll get one running yet

Dodges car's, fastest car, NASCAR's ever seen
I'll paint it petty blue
That's what I'll do just like 43

They're all in my backyard, them old cars
I love every one that I get
Mixing fast gasoline with my NASCAR dreams
Oh, I'm gonna get one running yet
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Yeah, I'll get one running yet
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Get one running yet
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'll get one running yet

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I'll get one running yet
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'll get one running yet
