Pass You By

I got an old V-8 from the year I was born



Don't look like much, just a flat black Ford



The engine's clean, I could paint it someday



But most of the time I like it this way







Don't turn no head, don't catch no eye



Just a wind on the road, gonna pass you by







Well I used to talk tough, I used to get loud



Want to paint my name all over this town



The folks lined up just to dog my day



Now if i stay quiet, they stay out of my way







Don't turn no head, don't catch no eye



Just a wind on the road, gonna pass you by







I got a brand new plan, I'm gonna help myself



'Cause it's a fat man's town, I'm gonna share the wealth



Put the money in the bag, keep your hands in sight



Turn around, count to ten, and I go back into the night







Don't turn no head, don't catch no eye



Just a wind on the road, gonna pass you by



Don't come over here, Don't scream don't cry



Just a wind on the road, gonna pass you by







I got an old V-8 from the year I was born



Don't look like much, just a flat black Ford
