Crazy Little Compact Car - Brian Hyland

Call my baby

On the phone

I told her, «Baby, don’t go far,»

«I'll be over right away in my cozy little compact car.»

When I saw her with a crowd

My heart fell like a fallen star

'Cause she asked them all to come

In my cozy little compact car

I found it hard to grin

As they started to climb in

Lucy, Frank, and Jim and Mary-Sue

Then came Harry, and Lenore

And before I closed the door

A half a dozen more jammed in there too

Started rolling down the road

The squeaking like an old guitar

What a way to spend the day

In my cozy little compact car

There wasn’t room to sneeze

Just elbows, arms, and knees

As we passed the drug store on the square

And then I thought I screamed!

When she saw the football team

And said, «C'mon!

There’s lots of room to spare!»

My girl was so close

It was fun

We were like olives in a jar

And we’d go out every night

With the whole gang packed in tight

In my cozy little compact car
