"I drive a Rolls Royce, cause it's good for my voice"

I nice obvious one for you ...
I’ve been driving in my car, it’s not quite a jaguar
I bought it in primrose hill from a bloke from brazil
It was made in fifty-nine in a factory by the tyne
It says morris on the door, the g.p.o. owned it before
I drive in it for my job, the governor calls me a slob
But I don’t really care, give me some gas and the open air
It’s a bit old but it’s mine, I mend it in my spare time
Just last week I changed the oil, the rocker valves and the coil
Just last week I changed the oil
Last week it went round the clock, I also had a little knock
I dented somebody’s fender, he learnt not to park on a bender, ha ha ha
I’ve been driving in my car, it don’t look much but I’ve been far
I drive up to muswell hill, I’ve even been to selsey bill
I drove along the a45, I had her up to 58
This copper stopped me the other day, you’re mistaken what could I say
The tyres were a little worn, they were o.k., I could have sworn
I like driving in my car, I’m satisfied I’ve got this far
I like driving in my car, it don’t look much but I’ve been far
I like driving in my car, even with a flat tyre
I like driving in my car, it’s not quite a jaguar
I like driving in my car, I’m satisfied I’ve got this far
And now I'll look for some more obscure ones ....

Marc Bolan, T Rex.......
How about Highway star by Deep Purple......
nobody gonna take my car
I'm gonna race it to the ground
Nobody gonna beat my car
It's gonna break the speed of sound
Oh it's a killing machine
It's got everything
Like a driving power
Big fat tyres and everything
I love it and I need it, I bleed it
Yeah it's a wild hurricane
Alright hold tight, I'm a highway star
Nobody gonna take my girl
I'm gonna keep her to the end
Nobody gonna have my girl
She stays close on every bend
Oh she's a killing machine
She's got everything
A moving mouth
Body control and everything
I love her an' I need her, I seed her
Yeah she turns me on
Alright hold tight, I'm a highway star
Nobody gonna take my head
I got speed inside my brain
Nobody gonna steal my head
Now that I'm on the road again
Oh I'm in heaven again
I've got everything
Like a moving ground
An open road and everything
I love it and I need it, I seed it
Eight cylinders all mine
Alright hold tight, I'm a highway star
Nobody gonna take my car
I'm gonna race it to the ground
Nobody gonna beat my car
It's gonna break the speed of sound
Oh it's a killing machine
It's got everything
Like a driving power
Big fat tyres and everything
I love it and I need it, I bleed it
Yeah it's a mad hurricane
Alright hold tight, I'm a highway star
I'm a highway star
I'm a highway star
nobody gonna take my car
I'm gonna race it to the ground
Nobody gonna beat my car
It's gonna break the speed of sound
Oh it's a killing machine

Not going to try and remember all the lyrics, but here's a few songs you can chase up:
Little Red Corvette by Prince. Obvious which car.
Mustang Sally by can't remember. Likewise.
Little Duece Coupe by the Beach Boys about hot rod '32 Ford.
Fun, Fun, Fun, also by Beach Boys, mentions Ford Thunderbird (T-Bird).
Dead Man's Curve by Jan and Dean about race between Corvette and E-Type.
Little Old Lady From Pasedena also by Jan and Dean. About little old lady out-dragging everyone in her 'Super Stock' Dodge.
Big Red GTO by Sinita. Stock Aitken and Waterman crap about Ferrari GTO.
Can't think of any others off hand.

Wackyyy... surely you haven't forgotten our John's driving-related song?
"Inside My Nightmare" by John Lees
Flashing lights in the club
Memories of our wild affair
The first night we met
I just can't forget
Flashing lights, I was cool
What a fool, didn't realise
I just threw the dice
With my baby's life
Talk about a dream, I'll talk about an angel in white
Making all my wildest dreams come true
I remember driving wild
She was laughing by my side
One small mistake, too late to change
Now I live inside my nightmare
Flashing lights in the night
Memories of the girl I loved
I still feel her touch
I never loved so much
Flashing lights in the night
Memories of the cold despair
Just like a man insane
My tears fall like rain
Talk about a dream, I'll talk about an angel in white
Making all my wildest dreams come true
I remember driving wild
She was laughing by my side
One small mistake, too late to change
Now I live inside my nightmare
I was flash, driving fast through the night
Never saw the sign
Bad road, bad bend
I never felt the end
Flashing lights brought me back
But they left my baby there
Those blue, blue lights
In my blue, blue nights
Talk about a dream, I'll talk about an angel in white
Making all my wildest dreams come true
Talk about a fool, you're looking at the man that she loved
Who'll never find another girl like you
I remember driving wild
She was laughing by my side
One small mistake, too late to change
Now I live inside my nightmare

Let's take it to the streets cuz I'm ready to cruise
Just bought me and my cars all some brand new shoes
And the people just stare so I LOVE TO PARK IT
And I just put a computer in the glove compartment
With the petal to the floor, radar in the GRILLE
TV in the middle of my STEERING WHEEL
It's my car's birthday so we BLOWIN THEM CANDLES
More speakers in the trunk than my ride can handle
Got my name in the headrest, read it and weep
NOS tank in the back, camel hair on the seat
and when I pull up to the club, I get all the affection
Cuz the women love the paint and they can see their reflection
I'm about to take off, so F what ya heard
Because my side mirrors flap like a F**K*N BIRD
And the fools, we gon CLOCK ONE and we'll POP ONE
Cuz my folk ridin shotgun with a shotgun
I got my eyes wide shut and my trunk wide open
Did donuts last week and the streets still smoking
See, I'm off that anti-freeze and my car is TIPSY
Off the off ramp doin about a hundred and fifty
Rollin through East Point, on way to Ben Hill
Slide a five to the junkie to clean my windshield
Got the whole crew ridin and we startin S**T
I even got a trailer hitch with the barbeque pit
Now all you wanna do is get drunk and pout
Plus your new name is Fire cuz we stomped you out
and yeah, we blow trees and bees, that's fantastic
So gulls hold ya weave while I'm weaving through traffic
I kicked to fifth gear and teared the road apart
You'll be like lil John Q and get a +Change of Heart+
It's one mission, two clips and some triple beams
I'M ABOUT TO BLOW THIS WHOLE S**T UP TO SMITHEREENS
Just bought me and my cars all some brand new shoes

Daytona - Chris Rea
Diamond dream when the sun don't shine
I close my eyes to see
Twelve wild horses in silver chains
Calling out to me
Oh Daytona
Shine your light on me
Oh Daytona
Shine your light on me
Now she ain't easy so you take good care
Or she will scream down on your lust
She can please you like no other
Or she can leave you eating dust
Oh Daytona
Shine your light on me
Burning passion heat my day
Let me sit inside your wonder
Cloudless daydream, oh dance of dances
To have tamed the sound of thunder
Oh Daytona
Shine your light on me
Oh Daytona
Shine your light on me
Rooooaaaarrrrrrrrr -- Screeeechh
Diamond dream when the sun don't shine
I close my eyes to see
Twelve wild horses in silver chains
Calling out to me
Oh Daytona
Shine your light on me
Oh Daytona
Shine your light on me
Now she ain't easy so you take good care
Or she will scream down on your lust
She can please you like no other
Or she can leave you eating dust
Oh Daytona
Shine your light on me
Burning passion heat my day
Let me sit inside your wonder
Cloudless daydream, oh dance of dances
To have tamed the sound of thunder
Oh Daytona
Shine your light on me
Oh Daytona
Shine your light on me
Rooooaaaarrrrrrrrr -- Screeeechh

Live- Deep enough
we hit the room, me and my crew and it was cool,
until we bumped into you now it's been years,
but there you were like a mustang,
redlinin' every single gear with a man that danced like he was
born in '49,
but lost his groove back when jesus died i wanna know,
are those replacement hips? is that a swatch watch?
do you know what time it is?

Silver Thunderbird By Marc Cohn
Watched it coming up Winslow
Down South Park Boulevard
Yeah it was looking good from tail to hood
Great big fins and painted steel
Man it looked just like the Batmobile
With my old man behind the wheel
Well you could hardly even see him
In all of that chrome
The man with the plan and the pocket comb
But every night it carried him home
And I could hear him sayin'...
Don't gimme no Buick
Son you must take my word
If there's a God up in heaven
He's got a Silver Thunderbird
You can keep your Eldorados
And the foreign car's absurd
Me I wanna go down
In a Silver Thunderbird
He got up every morning
While i was still asleep
But I remember the sound of him shuffling around
Then right before the crack of dawn
I heard him turn the motor on
But when I got up they were gone
Down the road in the rain and snow
The man and his machine would go
Oh the secrets that old car would know
Sometimes I hear him sayin'...
(Chorus)
