Verse 1 Jauntin’ in that old Vauxhall Cold winter day, slick seats and all Jauntin’ in that old Vauxhall Cold winter day, slick seats and all Us kids slid side to side Laughin’ hard, no cares at all That old Vauxhall keeps rollin’ in my mind Yeah, that old Vauxhall keeps rollin’ in my mind Slip-slidin’ through my memories Mm… takes me back in time Verse 2 She climbed them hills so patiently We’d sing out loud, “I think I can” She climbed them hills so patiently We’d sing out loud, “I think I can” Engine hummin’ soft and low Like she understood our plan That old Vauxhall keeps rollin’ in my mind Yeah, that old Vauxhall keeps rollin’ in my mind Slip-slidin’ through my memories Mm… takes me back in time Verse 3 Sunday came, that wash day call Bucket waitin’ by the door Sunday came, that wash day call Bucket waitin’ by the door Four of us, but I stood alone Twelve years old… and doin' it all That old Vauxhall keeps rollin’ in my mind Yeah, that old Vauxhall keeps rollin’ in my mind Slip-slidin’ through my memories Mm… takes me back in time Verse 4 Soapy rag and that rounded frame That big old beast wore me down Soapy rag and that rounded frame That big old beast wore me down Too much car for a kid that small Water drippin’ to the ground That old Vauxhall keeps rollin’ in my mind Yeah, that old Vauxhall keeps rollin’ in my mind Slip-slidin’ through my memories Mm… wish I could ride one more time [Outro – STRICT SHORT ENDING] [Spoken word - LOUD AND CLEAR] “Old plates… worn and faded…” “N… B… Z… five… zero… seven…” “Slip-slidin’ through my mind…” [Clarinet plays one short phrase.] [Piano hits final chord.] [Drums stop.] [End.]
