Rebecca Lynn Howard - That's Why I Hate Pontiacs lyrics

Wisteria vines were climbin' Every sunset was a watercolor Had the promise of a perfect summer A blue-eyed boy with a red Trans-Am We spent hours on his hood, just laughin' In between the moonlight dancin' And it was way too short but oh so sweet Don't know what it was to him But it was love to me (Chorus) That's why I hate Pontiacs Black vinyl seats, yeah And Cracker Jacks The plastic rings They play it back That goodbye scene On a warm September night It'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 It's why I hate Pontiacs (2nd Verse) 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 I might have gotten past it long ago But parts of yesterday They get tattooed on your soul (Repeat Chorus) 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 It'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 It's why I hate Pontiacs That's why I hate Pontiacs
