"Old Funky Rolls (Alternate)" lyrics

"Old Funky Rolls (Alternate)"

In 1925 she stole the show
But that was many, many years ago
Abandoned in a pile of useless junk
I found her, never to be lost again
While I'm around her

I could ride forever in my old funky rolls
Just give me a bad hat and some old funky clothes
We don't care if folks are laughing
When we're on the road
Can't you feel that surge of power
Going eighteen miles an hour?
I could ride forever in my old funky rolls (Old funky rolls)
She ain't even paid for, but she's mine, I suppose
Once they tried to repossess her
But she wouldn't start, God bless her
Spunky hunk a junk my funky rolls (Woo)

For thirty years she got by on her looks
(That was chic, that was very chic)
Her face appeared in all the motor books
(Once a week each and every week)
When they checked her gasket out
The old girl blew it
Funky was a lemon (Woo)
She never knew it

But I could ride forever in my old funky, my old funky rolls
She's got Plymouth headlights and a tank full of holes (Tank full of holes)
Once I thought I really lost her on the Boulevard
Funky found the love she needed
Metaphor, overheated
I could ride forever in my old funky (My old funky rolls)
Just give me a bad hat and some old, old funky clothes (Woo)
There goes the radiator
Break me up, I'll see you later
Spunky hunk a junk my funky
My funky rolls (My funky rolls)

Ricki-tick and teak my honey
Wacki-tack, hack, she's a honey
Funky hunk a junk
My funky rolls

Come on, Funky, please start?
I'm gonna kick you
Funky, would you please start?
Funky, here comes the man from the finance company
Ah, that's a nice car
Nice, Funky
I'll see you all later
My funky, my funky rolls
Ricki-tick and teak my honey
Wacki-tack, hack, ah
