lyrics

Sometimes you luck out with things you afford
But nothing's conventional when you are poor
The case of my first car, a Mercury Capri
It was stock red from 1973

My mom found it for five hundred
from some old man who hardly drove it
It had one little tear on the driver's seat
but the rest of the car was perfect to me

It had a radio and an 8 track deck
I would go to thrift stores and have my pick
of nothing that was popular then
Things like Stevie Wonder and Parliament

I found some Santana, Led Zepplin
And some Sly Stone at the back of the bin
I would drive around town for no reason
but to imagine myself in the seventies again

Although this car didn't attract no girls
when I drove it to school I was still on top of the world
I would always park it the furthest away
to prevent any scratches or dents in the day

Then one morning one of my peers
was coming up quickly in my rear view mirror
In his blue Beamer crashed my Capri
that beautiful red car that was precious to me
