Rolling Stones - Brand New Car
youtube.com/watch?v=WLMktJ2aCFo

I got a brand new car
And I like to drive real hard
I got a brand new car
And I’m feeling good so far

Take her on the highway for a little spin
I want to see the kind of shape she’s in
And I got a brand new star
Jack her up baby, go on, open the hood
I want to check if her oil smells good
Mmmm…smells like caviar

Give her some stick
Push her too far
Right to the brink

I’ve got a brand new car
I tell you, she’s running good so far

Hear the motor running
Yeah, she’s right in sink
Tell me if she’s thirsty
Would she like a drink
And I’m stopping at this bar

Slinky like a panther
You can hear her purr
Touch her on the seat
Go on, feel the fur
And I got a brand new star

Feel the juice
Foot to the floor
Take some abuse

I got a brand new car
And I drive her in the dark
And I got a brand new car
I think I’ll stop and park

Queen - I’m in Love with my Car
youtube.com/watch?v=gdDNFJpil50

The machine of a dream
Such a clean machine
With the pistons a pumpin’
And the hub caps all gleam

When I’m holdin’ your wheel
All I hear is your gear
When my hand’s on your grease gun
Oh it’s like a disease son

I’m in love with my car
Gotta feel for my automobile
Get a grip on my boy racer rollbar
Such a thrill when your radials squeal

Told my girl I’ll have to forget her
Rather buy me a new carburetor
So she made tracks sayin’
This is the end now
Cars don’t talk back
They’re just four wheeled friends now

When I’m holdin your wheel
All I hear is your gear
When I’m cruisin’ in overdrive
Don’t have to listen to no run of the mill talk jive

I’m in love with my car
Gotta feel for my automobile
I’m in love with my car
String back gloves in my automolove

There are too many. RnR is American, after all.

Beach Boys:
Don’t Worry Baby
Fun, Fun, Fun
Little Duece Coupe

Cars, but the remix by Fear Factory is a million times better imo

I always thought this was about the car… but now that I read the lyrics, it seems to be about a place. I always thought the big car was the actual “love shack”.

If you see a faded sign by the side of the road that says
15 miles to the… Love Shack! Love Shack yeah
I’m headin’ down the Atlanta highway,
lookin’ for the love getaway
Heading for the love getaway, love getaway,
I got me a car, it’s as big as a whale
and we’re headin’ on down
To the Love Shack
I got me a Chrysler, it seats about 20
So hurry up and bring your jukebox money

The Love Shack is a little old place
where we can get together
Love Shack baby, Love Shack bay-bee.
Love baby, that’s where it’s at,
Ooo love baby, that’s where it’s at

Sign says… Woo… stay away fools,
'cause love rules at the Lo-o-ove Shack!
Well it’s set way back in the middle of a field,
Just a funky old shack and I gotta get back

Glitter on the mattress
Glitter on the highway
Glitter on the front porch
Glitter on the hallway

The Love Shack is a little old place
where we can get together
Love Shack bay-bee! Love Shack baby!
Love Shack, that’s where it’s at!
Huggin’ and a kissin’, dancin’ and a lovin’,
wearin’ next to nothing
Cause it’s hot as an oven
The whole shack shimmies!
The whole shack shimmies when everybody’s
Movin’ around and around and around and around!
Everybody’s movin’, everybody’s groovin’ baby!
Folks linin’ up outside just to get down
Everybody’s movin’, everybody’s groovin’ baby
Funky little shack! Funk-y little shack!

Hop in my Chrysler,
it’s as big as a whale
and it’s about to set sail!
I got me a car, it seats about twenty
So c’mon and bring your jukebox money.

The Love Shack is a little old place
where we can get together
Love Shack baby! Love Shack bay-bee!
(Love Shack…Love Shack…)
Love Shack, that’s where it’s at!

Bang bang bang on the door baby!
Knock a little louder baby!
Bang bang bang on the door baby!
I can’t hear you
Bang bang on the door baby
Bang bang on the door
Bang bang on the door baby
Bang bang
You’re what?.. Tin roof, rusted!

Love Shack, baby Love Shack!
Love Shack, baby Love Shack!
Love baby, that’s where it’s at
Love Shack, baby Love Shack!
Love baby, that’s where it’s at
Huggin’ and a kissin’,
dancin’ and a lovin’ at the love shack

“Electric Flower Car” Song?

Can’t do any better than this…

This might qualify…

Nice car. But the lyrics…I see your Country and raise you Classic Folk.

This is easy. The Allman Brothers Band. These three songs on repeat will get you to Hualien (well at halfway there).

That whole album would work.

And speaking of cars…

Fast Car. New thread idea: covers of songs that should never be covered. I’ll stick with Tracy Chapman.

I don’t know. Haven’t heard anything about her in a while.

I see I totally misunderstood. I was thinking cruising tunes, but it was actually songs about cars. I thought Dr. Milker was just being a smartass with his songs.
