Lyrics
Verse:
Well, my first car was a Lincoln ... there was nothing like that ride
Deep wide seats; cherry red ... shined it up for my big prom night
But Mama said, "Treat your date special ... take my new mini-van!"
Got to my girl's house ... she wouldn't come out; said, "I can't ride in that!"
Chorus:
Shoulda took the Lincoln ... man, what was I thinking?
Sometimes my brain oughta let my heart decide
Shoulda took the Lincoln ... gotta ask myself each time I compromise
What was I thinking? ... shoulda took the Lincoln
Verse:
Still had my Lincoln when I got married ... I said, "Honey, I got an idea!!
How 'bout a road trip?" ... She said, "Yeah!! ... but let's rent ourselves a big RV."
So we did, and we put all our stuff on top ... in one heck of a towering load
Came 'round a ridge ... hit a low bridge ... left our clothes all down the road
Chorus:
Shoulda took the Lincoln ... man, what was I thinking?
Sometimes my brain oughta let my heart decide
Shoulda took the Lincoln ... gotta ask myself each time I compromise
What was I thinking? ... shoulda took the ...
Bridge:
Lincoln ... all mine ... big V8 and them dual exhausts
Feeling so fine ... leather seats ... so slick and soft
It's my car!! It's my dream!! ... It's my rolling mission
From now on, I guarantee ... never gonna say again ...
Chorus:
Shoulda took the Lincoln ... man, what was I thinking?
Sometimes my brain oughta let my heart decide
Shoulda took the Lincoln ... gotta ask myself each time I compromise
What in the world was I thinking this time?
Shoulda took the Lincoln ... oh man, what was I thinking?
Sometimes my brain oughta let my heart decide
Shoulda took the Lincoln ... gotta ask myself each time I compromise
What was I thinking? ... shoulda took the Lincoln ... shoulda took the Lincoln
Gonna take it right now !!
