(riff 1)
Asked a girl what she wanted to be,
(riff 1)
She said, baby can't you see?
(riff 1)
I wanna be famous, a star of the screen,
(riff 2)
But you can do something in between
(riff 3)
Baby you can drive my car
(riff 3)
yes I´m gonna be a star
(riff 3)
Baby you can drive my car
(riff 4)
And maybe I'll love you
I told that girl that my prospects were good
And she said baby, it's understood
Working for peanuts is all very fine
But I can show you a better time
I told that girl that I could start right away
And she said listen babe I've got something to say
I got no car and it's breakin' my heart
But I've got a driver and that's a start
