The One I Loved Back Then



(The Corvette Song)
Written by (?)

I stopped off at the Quicksack for some beer and cigarettes
This old man took my money as he stared at my Corvette
He said, I had one just like her son, a 1963
'Til the man down at the bank took her from me

(Chorus)
I had one that was hotter than a two dollar pistol
She was the fastest thing around
Long and lean every young man's dream
[ George Jones Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]
She turned every head in town
She was built in from the handles
Son, I'm glad that you walked in
She reminds me of the one I loved back then

Well I handed him my keys and said, here take her for a spin
The old man scratched his head, then he looked at me and grinned
He said son you just don't understand it ain't the car I want
It's the brunette in your 'vette that turns me on

(Repeat Chorus)

Son, I'm glad that you walked in
She reminds me of the one I loved back then
