Baby, you can drive my car
Yes, I'm gonna be a star
Baby, you can drive my car
And maybe I'll love you
I told that girl I could start right away
And she said, Listen baby, I've got something to say
I got no car, and it's breaking my heart
But I found a driver and that's a start
Baby, you can drive my car
Yes, I'm gonna be a star
Baby, you can drive my car
And maybe I'll love you
Beep beep, beep beep yeah
NOTE: "I arrived in the studio with this fairly good tune, but
it had crappy lyrics, like 'I can give you diamond rings, I can
give you golden rings, I can give you anything', and John said,
'Oh!', he didn't like them and we had a deep sad moment. So, I
said to him, 'I'll tell you what, let's have a cup of tea and
a ciggie and we'll just relax for a minute.' After that, we
just jollied up and I said, 'I'll tell you what then, how about
this girl in LA who wants a chauffeur." (Paul McCartney)
