YourMissionForToday's Journal: Chevy Van Song

YourMissionForToday's note: This song is about a guy who picks up a hot hitchiker in his Chevy Van (replete with 8-track player and custom deep shag carpeting, no doubt) and then they totally get it on! Huge hit in the '70s. Great cover by Fu Manchu.

Chevy Van by Sammy Johns. copyright 2002 ASCAP/BMI

Gave a girl a ride in my wagon

She crawled in and took control

She was tired as her mind was a draggin'

I said "Get some sleep and dream of rock and roll"

Cause like a picture she was layin there
Moonlight dancin off her hair
She woke up and took me by the hand
We made love in my Chevy Van and that's all right with me

Her young face was like that of an angel

Her long legs

Were tan and brown

Better keep

Your eyes on the road son

Better slow this vehicle down

Cause like a picture she was layin there
Moonlight dancin off her hair
She woke up and took me by the hand
We made love in my Chevy Van and that's all right with me

I put her out

In a town that was so small

You could throw

A rock from end to end

Dirt road main street, she walked off in bare feet

It's a shame I won't be passing through again

Cause like a picture she was layin there
Moonlight dancin off her hair
She woke up and took me by the hand
She's gonna love me in my Chevy Van and that's all right with me
