Dashing through the snow, in my rusty Chevrolet, Down the road I go, sliding all the way. I need new piston rings, I need some new snow tires, My car is held together by a piece of chicken wire.
Oh, rust and smoke, heater’s broke, the door just blew away, I light a match to see the dash, and then I start to pray-ay. The frame is bent, the muffler went, the radio’s okay, Oh, what fun it is to drive this rusty Chevrolet.
I went to IGA, to get some Christmas cheer, I just passed up my left front tire, and it’s gettin’ hard to steer. Speeding down the highway, right past the county cops, I have to drag my swampers just to get the thing to stop.
Oh, rust and smoke, heater’s broke, the door just blew away, I light a match to see the dash, and then I start to pray-ay. The frame is bent, the muffler went, the radio’s okay, Oh, what fun it is to drive this rusty Chevrolet.
Bouncing through the snowdrifts in a big blue cloud of smoke, People laugh as I drive by, I wonder what’s the joke? I have to get to Wal-Mart to pick up my layaway, ‘Cause Santa’s coming soon in his big old rusty sleigh.
Oh, rust and smoke, heater’s broke, the door just blew away, I light a match to see the dash, and then I start to pray-ay. The frame is bent, the muffler went, the radio’s okay, Oh, what fun it is to drive this rusty Chevrolet. Hey!
