(Spoken)
She: Got the car out, Honey?
He: Yes, Sweetheart, it's all tuned up
and ready to go. You got your hat?
She: Mm-HMM!
He: Well, then, what do you say? Let's go!
She: Okay!
(Chorus:)
How I love to drive my Buick
With my love sitting by my side;
Pretty girl and shiny Buick
Fills a fella with so much pride.
Driving down the road on Sunday
With my car and my heart riding high,
For I know that very soon
We'll take a honeymoon,
My Buick, my love, and I.
Riding through the country
Away from all the crowd,
I'm riding on a rainbow,
And I'm sitting on a cloud.
Our Father and our Mother
Were just as gay as we.
What's good enough for Father
And good enough for Mother
Is good enough for me!
How I love to drive my Buick
With my love sitting by my side;
Pretty girl and shiny Buick
Fills a fella with so much pride.
Driving down the road on Sunday
With my car and my heart riding high,
For I know that very soon
We'll take a honeymoon,
My Buick, my love, and I.
