Carvin' out a kiss

Oh I thought that he was such a dish

Making a wish with a jackknife on the skin of a tree

I didn't stand a chance

Not a shot in hell

He's been working on an old Coupe de Ville

I'm not in his heart

Now he's fixed up some old car

He drives it around and around

When I see him I say, hi

He just honks and drives on by

He drives it around and around

Around and around

Down at the playground

You can see him parked way out alone

What's that he's doing

Listening to the radio way down low

He didn't see me

But I saw something like a fish in his hand

Maybe I'm a lucky girl

I didn't get my wish and now I understand

chorus

Who knows the reasons why I love the ones who don't love me

Lights may never turn to green

That car's mysterious

That guy's delirious, obscene

chorus
