Old 97's - If My Heart Was A Car Lyrics
I remember the alamo, i don't recall who wonThey had swords, they had horses, i hear we had mighty gunsLike the ones from navarone last night on channel 21It's a long way back to el paso.It was early monday morning in the central standard zoneYou were quiet like the tv, hung up like the telephoneYou were sleeping next to me, i might as well have beenAloneIt's a long way back to el paso.ChorusAnd if my heart was a car, you would have stripped it aLong time ago.And if my heart was a car, you would have stripped it aLong time ago.And if my heart was a carYou would have stripped it down and sold it offTo the greasy man in the salvage lotAs it is it's just a heartNo, no, it ain't worth nothin'.I ain't talkin' bout tomorrow, i'm talkin' 'bout tonightYou told me you were drunk already, that don't make itRightYou want at me, well, have at it, 'cause i'm in the mood toFightAnd it's a long way back to el paso.And if my heart was a car, you would have stripped it aLong time ago.And if my heart was a car, you would have stripped it aLong time ago.And if my heart was a car, you would have stripped it aLong time ago.And if my heart was a,And if my heart was a,And if my heart was a car,(repeat chorus)
