Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Some people think that livin' is better
With bells and whistles and seats made of leather
But I find joy in an old joyride
That needs a jumpstart every once in awhile
Like a diamond in the rough
There's a gem waitin' in the junkyard
Used cars
[Verse 2]
Owned or driven previously
Has always turned out to be a blessing to me
You take the latest model for a spin off the lot
Hit the main drag and value drops
I saw the potential of a real love sittin' in park
Used cars
[Verse 3]
Just when I was thinkin'
All the good ones were gone
I found one woman's wreck
And made him someone I could count on
No, you didn't look broken down
But I could tell you had a broken heart
I guess I always had a certain kind of thing
For used cars
[Verse 4]
One headlight and a windshield crack
Minor repairs can fix all of that
It's just my opinion, but I think it's true
They quit makin' good men like you
Some are older, but they look younger than they are
Used cars
[Verse 5]
Just when I was thinkin'
All the good ones were gone
I found one woman's wreck
And made him someone I could count on
No, you didn't look broken down
But I could tell you had a broken heart
I guess I always had a certain kind of thing
For used cars
[Verse 6]
Just when I was thinkin'
All the good ones were gone
I found one woman's wreck
And made him someone I could count on
No, you didn't look broken down
But I could tell you had a broken heart
I guess I always had a certain kind of thing
For used cars
[Verse 7]
Miles don't matter as much as you think
And I know you don't come with a warranty
I just wanna spend every second with you
On the boulevard where the streets are smooth
Runnin' real slow
'Cause you know we don't have to go far
I don't love you for the way you were
I love you they way you are
Used cars
