Listening to NRBQ Lyrics

We started dating during Watergate.
We would stay up late
trashing Nixon.
Showed you my collection of vinyl sides
- LPs and 45s -
my addiction.
Even though it started out with a bang
things got much better when
you took me back to your parent's
in their basement den.
And yours were stacked floor-to-ceiling
covering every wall.
Then we made out a little.

Later that night I drove around with you
listening to NRBQ.

I had a charger with a big V8.
That mother started great.
Yeah, it hauled a**.
It had an after-market stereo
with FM radio
and an 8Track.

And together we would ride side-by-side
that year all summer long
and we'd turn on each other to our favorite songs.
And we'd sing out loud
with the windows rolled down
and your head on my shoulder.
And every night I'd drive around with you
listening to NRBQ.
All summer long - driving around with you
listening to NRBQ.

Got us tickets on your birthday
for a show in Detroit
and we drove four hours one-way.
When we got there we sat down in front
and started to kiss.
And then Terry took a solo and it went like this:
And now I'm older with a wife and kid.
Won't believe what I did
with my vinyl.
Put it on eBay and sold all of it
and though I regret it
"All Sales Final".

But every now and then you pop in my head
and it brings me a smile
and yeah, I still miss that Charger every once in a while.

Though I wouldn't change a thing about the life I have now
you know I still keep your picture.

And I remember driving 'round with you
listening to NRBQ.
All summer long - driving around with you
listening to NRBQ.
I wonder know if you remember, too
all the things we'd do
listening to NRBQ.
