Lyrics: Jeff Bates. Jeff Bates. Chevy Don't Let Me Down.

fire red t-bird made me look a little out of style
as i sit there in daddy's old belle-air
and i look for the quarter mile
everybody from the high school
showed up and gathered round
i was scared to death and praying to myself
now chevy don't let me down


becky joe dropped the towel on the road
and we both stepped on the gas
we were running neck and neck
when we meets the overpass
he was pushing that t-bird
and i heard make an awful sound
i just laughed and i patted the dash
and said chevy don't let me down

chorus:
don't let me down
that steady old chevy has seen me happy and seen me sad
we cruised through a lot of good times
and rolled out the bad
it'll never see a for sale sign
as long as i'm around
yeah, friends may come and friends may go
but that chevy don't let me down

it's been known to run hot put her out from time to time
and that's just what it did on an old dirt road
with becky joe sitting by my side
while we waited for it to cool off
things heated up all around
yeah i might have missed that very first kiss
but this chevy don't let me down


later on she and i spent many a night
with the top down under the moon
and after the wedding it took me and becky
on a hell of a honeymoon

chorus:

you know, friends may come and friends may go
but that chevy don't let me down
