pass you by

Lyrics

i got an old v-8 from the year i was born, don't look like much just a flat black ford, but the engine's clean, i could paint it someday, but most of the time i like it this way, don't turn no head, don't catch no eye, just a wind on the road gonna pass you by, well, i used to talk tough, i used to get loud, want to paint my name all over this town, the folks lined up just to dog my day, now if i stay quiet they stay out of my way, don't turn no head, don't catch no eye, just a wind on the road gonna pass you by, i got a brand new plan, i'm gonna help myself, 'cause it's a fat man's town, i'm gonna share the wealth, put the money in the bag, keep your hands in sight, turn around count to ten and i go back into the night, don't turn no head, don't catch no eye, just a wind on the road gonna pass you by, don't come over here, don't scream don't cry, just a wind on the road gonna pass you by, i got an old v-8 from the year i was born, don't look like much just a flat black ford
