[Instrumental Intro - Rock 'n' Roll Guitar Riff with a Doo-Wop Beat]
[Verse 1]
I was cruising down the boulevard, with my baby by my side,
In my cherry-red hot rod, with the flames on the hide.
We were listening to the radio, under the moon so bright,
When she turned to me and said, "Let's go for a little ride."
[Pre-Chorus]
We were flying down the highway, with the wind in our hair,
When she said, "I've got a secret, baby, that you oughta hear.
I've been seeing another guy, and he's got a hot rod too,
And I'm leaving you, baby, for that other fancy fool."
[Chorus]
I want my hot rod back, yeah, I want it back right now,
She can keep her new boyfriend, but my hot rod's not allowed.
I want my hot rod back, yeah, I want it back so bad,
She can have the house, the kids, and the dog, but I want my hot rod back.
[Verse 2]
She said she was sorry, as she walked out the door,
But I could see in her eyes, she didn't love me anymore.
She took the keys to my hot rod, and she drove away in style,
Leaving me with nothing but my tears and a broken smile.
[Pre-Chorus]
I begged and I pleaded, but she just laughed in my face,
She said, "You'll never catch us, baby, in this hot rod race.
He's got a supercharger, and he's not afraid to use it,
And I'm his girl now, baby, so you'll just have to lose it."
[Chorus]
I want my hot rod back, yeah, I want it back right now,
She can keep her new boyfriend, but my hot rod's not allowed.
I want my hot rod back, yeah, I want it back so bad,
She can have the house, the kids, and the dog, but I want my hot rod back.
[Bridge - Spoken]
You know, I loved that girl with all my heart,
But I loved that hot rod even more, right from the start.
And if she thinks she can take it away, she's got another thing coming,
'Cause I'm gonna get my hot rod back, and I ain't gonna be humming.
[Guitar Solo with Doo-Wop Background Vocals]
[Verse 3]
So I called up my buddies, and we hatched a plan,
We're gonna steal my hot rod back, like a real outlaw band.
We'll sneak up on 'em quietly, and we'll catch 'em by surprise,
And I'll be driving my hot rod, under that moonlit sky.
[Chorus]
I want my hot rod back, yeah, I want it back right now,
She can keep her new boyfriend, but my hot rod's not allowed.
I want my hot rod back, yeah, I want it back so bad,
She can have the house, the kids, and the dog, but I want my hot rod back.
[Outro]
So here's to the hot rods, and the hearts that they break,
To the loves that we lose, and the chances we take.
But I know one thing for sure, as I drive away in the night,
I've got my hot rod back, baby, and everything feels just right.
