Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I found my old Levi's from junior high
Still got the grass stains on 'em from that summer night that I
I thought that I'd forgotten
We met at Jamesy's house 'round a quarter to nine
Talked about the things that we wanted in life, and I
I felt like we were something
[PreChorus]
We didn't need a destination
But we had four wheels, and I
I remember you said
[Chorus]
We could take your mom's old car
Roll the windows down, we can leave this town
And drive it way too far
I got five for gas, we can make it last
You said, "I love you", I remember how it felt
In your mom's old car, mmm
Your mom's old car, oh
Your mom's old car, oh
[Verse 2]
It's got a cigarette burn on the back of the seat
The radio's broke, it don't matter to me, and I
Got my feet up on the dashboard
Messing up the lyrics to Forever Young
Singing a cappella at the top of our lungs, and we
Pretended we were rock stars
[PreChorus]
We didn't need a destination
But we had four wheels, and I
I remember you said
[Chorus]
We could take your mom's old car
Roll the windows down, we can leave this town
And drive it way too far
I got five for gas, we can make it last
You said, "I love you", I remember how it felt
In your mom's old car, mmm
Your mom's old car, oh
Your mom's old car, oh
[Outro]
We never worried about the future
We never talked about the past at all
Though it's been years, I still remember how it felt
Playing my dad's guitar
In your mom's old car, oh
Mom's old car, oh
Your mom's old car, oh
