Twenty years ago I watched in awe as my dad drove up the driveway
More than proud to have a brand new family car
Thirty miles to the gallon, zero to sixty sometimes
I remember putting down the back seat and lying in the hatchback
Lookin' at the sky watching trees go by
I was the son of a preacher, and he was a rich, poor man
CHORUS:
No A/C and no FM and no regrets
In my Chevette, yeah
In my Chevette, yeah
The winter cracked the highway and we tried to dodge the potholes
He never promised us it would be a gentle ride
We never had a problem, though, keepin' it on the narrow road
CHORUS:
No A/C and no FM and no regrets
In my Chevette, yeah
In my Chevette, yeah
In my Chevette, yeah
In my Chevette
(Never had a car like that)
BRIDGE:
The whole thing is up on blocks
But that car still rocks!
Seems like yesterday
(Seems like yesterday, seems like yesterday)
In my Chevette, yeah
In my Chevette, yeah
I had no A/C in my Chevette
Had window cranks, in my Chevette
Had vinyl seats in my Chevette
In my Chevette, had no regrets
In my Chevette
