The Wysteria vines were climbin'
|
Every sunset was a watercolor,
|
The promise of a perfect summer
|
A blue eyed boy with a red TransAm.
|
We spent hours on his hood just laughing
|
In between the moonlight just dancing.
|
And it was way too short but oh so sweet
|
Don't know what it was to him but it was love to me.
|
|
That's why I hate Pontiacs,
|
Black vinyl seats
|
And Crackerjacks
|
With plastic rings
|
They play it back in that goodbye scene on a warm September night
|
|
That's why I hate river roads
|
With the windows down
|
And Tupelo, oh I hate that town.
|
'Cause all I know is that's where he was bound
|
And he never did come back
|
That's why I hate Pontiacs.
|
|
I filed away my wounded pride
|
I found someone and loved again;
|
Never take a trip to way back when.
|
|
'Til the radio plays a certain song
|
And it's like a finger on the trigger
|
Some old hurts they just hurt bigger.
|
Might have gotten past it long ago
|
but parts of yesterday ... they get tattooed on your soul
|
|
That's why I hate Pontiacs
|
Black vinyl seats,
|
And Crackerjacks
|
With plastic rings
|
They play it back in that goodbye scene on a warm September night.
|
|
That's why I hate river roads
|
With the windows down
|
And Tupelo, oh I hate that town.
|
'Cause all I know is that's where he was bound
|
And he never did come back.
|
|
That's why I hate Pontiacs
|
|
That's why I hate Pontiacs
|
Black vinyl seats
|
We were maniacs.
|
So wild and free 'til he took it back
|
That he loved me
|
And he drove off like the wind
|
|
That's why I hate Scorpios
|
You can't tie 'em down,
|
And Tupelo, Lord I hate that town.
|
'Cause all I know is that's where he was bound
|
And he never did come back.
|
|
That's why I hate Pontiacs
