Well it's late July and it's scorching hot
In the Piggly Wiggly parking lot.
No traffic light cause it got shot
Way back in '88.
Tanned legs dangle from an old tailgate,
Somebody yells, "Let's go to the lake!"
There's still a [?]
In the back of my Chevrolet.
It's long, it's red,
It's a car with a bed.
Come on, let's go.
Let's take a ride in the El Camino.
Well it's hard to keep it between the lines
Cause Mary Lou Langley is looking so fine.
Bobby's throwin' bottles at speed limit signs
And missing 'em by a mile.
Full moon shinin' on a Tennessee night,
Everybody is singing "Dixieland Delight."
Goin' 30 miles an hour but that's alright,
We'll be there in a little while.
It's long, it's red,
It's a car with a bed.
Come on, let's go.
Let's take a ride in the El Camino.
Aw, take a ride!
We prowl in the Fishhead Sloo
And everybody puts on their birthday suits
Except for me and Mary Lou...
We got better things to do.
It's still long, it's red,
It's a car with a bed.
Come on, let's go.
We're gonna take a ride in the El Camino.
Come on and take a ride in the El Camino.
