lyrics

That car is a pain in the neck now
It’s just like a thorn stuck in my side
A total pain in the neck now
Just like a thorn stuck in my side
Never got me nowhere
Just took my money for a ride
And I tell you that aint no lie

Woke up one winter morning
Turned it over and it died
Yeah it never gave me no warning baby
Just turned it over and it died
Now I just can’t get it going yeah
No matter how hard I try
Alright play it brother

Getting stuck right out in traffic
Is never something that I miss
But when I’m trying to see you baby
You know I can’t resist
But now I’m stuck in New York City
And you know that I’m pissed
That’s right, pissed
That car it’s a pain in the neck now baby
It’s just like a thorn stuck in my side
Yeah it’s a total pain in the neck now
Just like a thorn stuck in my side
And it never gets me nowhere
Just took my money for a ride
Oh yeah bye bye

I hate this car
Yankees fan
