Nothing Special Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Good one! And I forgot the even better version: Give me gas in my Ford Keep me truckin' for the Lord Give me gas in my Ford I pray Give me gas in my Ford Keep me truckin' for the Lord 'cause the devil drives a Chevrolet!

We sing one that goes: If the Devil's in the road we will stop and pick him up. But, I wasn't aware he might be in a Chevy, which raises lots of questions.

There are too many lyrics for me to type in, but if you Google "Steve Taylor Drive He Said" you'll find it. It's kind of fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had never heard this: On a desert road that steamed the sky With the windows up and the air on high I was off the stage, I was on the mend With a solo drive to a holiday weekend My thirsty car came to a stop at the Reptile Gardens Curio Shop When a wind came hissing through the vents And I felt my sneakers growing tense My forehead broke in a cold, cold sweat In the rearview mirror was a silhouette Then I heard the doorlocks take a dive And a whisper screamed "Don't turn around, just drive" Scratch! Dressed in red--pointy tail and horn-rimmed head And a widow's peak like Eddie Munster I sat frozen in my seat--"We haven't had the chance to meet... Are you a singing telegram or something?" He just flashed a hellish smile--"Let's go driving for a while" He held something in his hand I'd never seen before It was my Chevrolet's pink slip Scratch! Evil eye "Step on it, boy, if you want to stay alive" he said "Don't look surprised, you know what I want I've lived for years inside your trunk, so drive" he said "Let's get talking business, son--you ain't fooling anyone I know just what you want to be--now it's time to work for me, so drive" If this is a nasty dream I'd prefer to wake up here I believe the point is clear... Scratch! Out of my car! He said "Ha! I've come too far... Besides, I kinda like the velour seatcovers" God, help me! What do I do? "Shut up boy, it's too late for you...now drive! All you phonies get it wrong--double lives take half us long Should have kept your windows clean--now I'm part of this machine You've got a good 80,000 miles left Before the recall..." If this is a nasty dream I believe the point's quite clear I'd prefer to wake up here I started humming Amazing Grace He said "Come on, boy, give me a break" So I hit the brakes with both my feet And sent two horns through the bucket seat Then the locks shut up as the grace came down I said "Here's the keys--I'll be walking back to town..."

Ford F834 Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 That is a nice blessing David. Thanks for sharing! I saw this, liked it and decided to share... Bless this Ford, oh Lord, we pray, Keep her safe both night and day. Bless the one who holds the wheel, Those who ride - Your presence feel. In Your care, may she roam--------- through towns and wilderness------- then safely home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
