Richard Thompson - MGB-GT lyrics

I've got a little car and she might go far She's the mistress of my heart now She's a '65 with an overdrive I fixed her in every part now 2 in the front and 2 in the back 110 on the old Hog's Back She's my MGB-GT she's a runner now I welded the sills and the old floor pan Cut the rust with the torch and the hacksaw Took the Rostyles off, put the spoke wheels on Got a brand new Salisbury axle WHen I drive through town the girls all smile They say, there's a man with retro-style MGB-GT she's a runner now Lockheed discs and twin SUs Original chrome on the grill now Looks llike a dream in racing green Competition's standing still now I sprayed her body, I strengthened her frame I stripped her right down and built her up again MGB-GT An Alpine's fine if you've got the time And a Healey'll set you back some TR4 cost a little bit more But it don't have the same attraction Hard top handy case of the weather I don't care if it rains forever MGB-GT
