She will ride you right
Pick you up 'bout half past nine
We can ride all night
Came up from the country, baby
City's where I stay
Got me a deuce and a quarter, babe
That's all I got to say
[Chorus]
She's Detroit made
Deuce and a quarter, babe
She's Detroit made
Deuce and a quarter, babe
Big block, she'll do all the work
So we can ride in style
Leather on those bucket seats
Carpet, double pile
Chrome that takes the moonlight on
Sea to shining sea
You can hear those glass pipes rumble
To the Statue of Liberty
[Chorus]
Now, when I first got outta high school
I drove an old farm truck
All the girls they walk right by me
Didn't even say good luck
Now, I ride in my 225
They all wanna be my friend
I'll pick you up later tonight now, babe
If you can wait 'til then
[Chorus]
Just about every cat I know
Wants him a Coupe de Ville
I pay half the price and get twice as nice
And they still tryin' to pay that bill
Now, I can't say everything?s ok
Ridin' in my car
But I got me a deuce and a quarter babe
She goes like a shootin' star
[Chorus]
I got me a deuce and a quarter, babe She will ride you right Pick you up 'bout half past nine We can ride all night Came up from the country, baby City's where I stay Got me a deuce and a quarter, babe That's all I got to say [Chorus] She's Detroit made Deuce and a quarter, babe She's Detroit made Deuce and a quarter, babe Big block, she'll do all the work So we can ride in style Leather on those bucket seats Carpet, double pile Chrome that takes the moonlight on Sea to shining sea You can hear those glass pipes rumble To the Statue of Liberty [Chorus] Now, when I first got outta high school I drove an old farm truck All the girls they walk right by me Didn't even say good luck Now, I ride in my 225 They all wanna be my friend I'll pick you up later tonight now, babe If you can wait 'til then [Chorus] Just about every cat I know Wants him a Coupe de Ville I pay half the price and get twice as nice And they still tryin' to pay that bill Now, I can't say everything?s ok Ridin' in my car But I got me a deuce and a quarter babe She goes like a shootin' star [Chorus] Explain Request ×
