I Should'A Had A V8

Well, I said pretty baby
Hey we got a little money
So let's go gamble in the morning
Let's do it right
We'll rock the night away
So I started up the car but we didn't get far
We stalled right in the intersection
I knew it there and then when I heard the motor whine
It was way past trade in time

I gotta get a V-8, I gotta get a V-8
It's the only motor ever made that never gets there late
You can get a little car if you wanna save gas
But I'm the kind of guy who likes to get there fast
I can't wait
I gotta get a V-8
I gotta get a V-8

So I put out a feeler for a used car dealer
And I walked right into that showroom
He started out a-taking
Even 'fore I got a-waking through the door
He made a direction for the latest selection
Of the greatest cars ever on offer
I really shouldn't do it 'cause I'm giving it away
There it is on the showroom floor

Well, it's got a V-6, yeah, it's got a V-6
It'll save ya on gas
But it's fast enough to get your kicks
It's got plenty of power
Just look at her shine
Put 10 percent down
Pay the rest on time
How's tricks
You gotta get a V-6
You gotta get a V-6

Well, he talked to fast and the deal sounded good
He hustled me right out of the showroom
He handed me a paper
Just sign it on the dotted line
He dangled the keys right in front of my nose
For $1500 you can take it
Any colour that you want you could drive it home today
The car is now all mine
You know what

I should'a had a V-8
I should'a had a V-8
It's the only motor ever made that never gets there late
You can get a V-6 if you wanna save gas
But I'm the kind of guy who likes to get there fast
I'm late
I should'a had a V-8

I should'a had a V-8
I should'a had a V-8
It's the only motor ever made that never gets there late
You can get a V-6 if you wanna save gas
But I'm the kind of guy who likes to get there fast
I'm late
I should'a had a V-8
I should'a had a V-8
