Lyrics
Intro
Mm
Mm-hmm
(Still running)
Verse 1
The paint is gone the seats are torn
The engine coughs each early morn
One broken light a rusty door
But I keep coming back for more
The radio has lost its sound
Dashboard shakes when I drive around
Fuel runs low the brakes complain
But she still takes me through the rain
Instrumental Groove
Verse 2
City lights slide down the glass
Another night another pass
Traffic moves the signals change
My old machine still feels the same
She's seen the coast she's seen the snow
She's heard the things I never show
No shining badge no perfect lines
Four old wheels and borrowed time
Pre-Chorus
Turn the key
Hear the sound
Something broken
Still goes round
One more mile
One more night
Keep the engine
Burning bright
Chorus
MY OLD CAR
Take me anywhere tonight
MY OLD CAR
Keep the engine burning bright
Rattle and roll
Out of control
My old car
Still carries my soul
MY OLD CAR
We don't need a reason why
MY OLD CAR
Keep on rolling through the night
Post-Chorus
Still running
Still running
My old car
Still running
Still running
Through the dark
Instrumental Break
Verse 3
The mechanic says it's time to quit
Too much rust and too much grit
He shakes his head he names the price
I tell him that she'll be alright
There's a dent from '99
A faded sticker and a crooked sign
Every scratch is something true
Every mile remembers you
Pre-Chorus
Turn the key
Hear the sound
Something broken
Still goes round
One more mile
One more night
Keep the engine
Burning bright
Chorus
MY OLD CAR
Take me anywhere tonight
MY OLD CAR
Keep the engine burning bright
Rattle and roll
Out of control
My old car
Still carries my soul
MY OLD CAR
We don't need a reason why
MY OLD CAR
Keep on rolling through the night
Breakdown
No touchscreen
No GPS
Just an old map
And a little mess
No perfect paint
No warranty
Just you old girl
And the road with me
Build
Start it up
Let it run
One more road
One more sun
Start it up
Let it run
We're not finished
We're not done
Final Chorus
MY OLD CAR
Take me anywhere tonight
MY OLD CAR
Keep the engine burning bright
Rattle and roll
Out of control
My old car
Still carries my soul
MY OLD CAR
We don't need a reason why
MY OLD CAR
Keep on rolling through the night
MY OLD CAR
Every mile becomes a song
MY OLD CAR
We've been broken all along
But the wheels still turn
And the lights still glow
My old car
Don't let me go
Outro
Still running
Still running
My old car
Still running
Still running
