Va-Va-Vroom
By: Noah Eaton
11/21/03

Well I’m rollin’ down the highway in a hunk of tin
Sailin’ this silver pony into the sunset like a bison
Got me my radio to keep me company
In just 5.2 seconds you’ll see me go from zero to sixty
Nowhere in particular is where I'm headin'
Cuz the world is my playground that I keep livin'
I've got me a bumper sticker that says "How's My Honky-Tonkin'?"
So drop me a line, sometime, you dixie vixen

Va-va-vroom, va-va-vroom
Cruisin' in this '72 Chevrolet Chevelle Coupe
Crossin' county lines like kudzu vines
I'm a cowboy by day and a rebel by night
I'm a-stayin' off those city highways now
Let me at 'em in this six-lane showdown
Travellin' on the right side of the road each day through
Va-Va-Vroom



From here on it's all high cotton
But to me it don't mean nothin'
Cuz there's no locks on doors at the Waffle House
And those buzzin' yellow signs are keepin' me aroused
Cuz I love the greetin's when I come on in
The omelette's a-tossin' and the jukebox is soothin'
And I love to boast of the raisins in my toast
Scattered, smothered and covered's the way I like it the most

Va-va-vroom, va-va-vroom
Cruisin' in this '72 Chevrolet Chevelle Coupe
Crossin' county lines like kudzu vines
I'm a cowboy by day and a rebel by night
I'm a-stayin' off those city highways now
Let me at 'em in this six-lane showdown
Travellin' on the right side of the road each day through
Va-Va-Vroom

I've got my Royal Crown Cola in my cupholder armrest
My dashboard's my cockpit, the shotgun's open to every lucky guest
And I never even think about resettin' the odometer
Cuz I never wile away a mile without lookin' back on the marker
I'm a spring chicken on a wild goose chase
Leapin' the speed bumps down the ol' interstate
There's no physician like the ignition
Cuz I'm always followin' my intuition on this ongoin' expedition

Va-va-vroom, va-va-vroom
Cruisin' in this '72 Chevrolet Chevelle Coupe
Crossin' county lines like kudzu vines
I'm a cowboy by day and a rebel by night
I'm a-stayin' off those city highways now
Let me at 'em in this six-lane showdown
Travellin' on the right side of the road each day through
Va-Va-Vroom

Va-va-vroom, va-va-vroom
Cruisin' in this '72 Chevrolet Chevelle Coupe
Crossin' county lines like kudzu vines
I'm a cowboy by day and a rebel by night
I'm a-stayin' off those city highways now
Let me at 'em in this six-lane showdown
Travellin' on the right side of the road each day through
Va-Va-Vroom







I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth
I can see the sun set and I perceive

***Live***

I can hear the beat to a song. I love a car called Chevy SS. I can't remember if it's 70, 71, or 72, but I love the memories this brought back of the red Chevy SS with the wide white stripes I saw once when I was young. I rode in it once. I wish I had one. Fun to read, Noah. Congrats on the many posts!
Love,
Terri~
