Asked a girl what she wanted to be
She said, Baby, can't you see?
I wanna be famous, a star of the screen
But you can do something in between
Baby, you can drive my car
Yes, I'm gonna be a star
Baby, you can drive my car
And maybe I'll love you
I told that girl that my prospects were good
And she said, Baby, it's understood
Working for peanuts is all very fine
But I can show you a better time
Baby, you can drive my car
Yes, I'm gonna be a star
Baby, you can drive my car
And maybe I'll love you
Beep beep mm beep beep, yeah
Baby, you can drive my car
Yes, I'm gonna be a star
Baby, you can drive my car
And maybe I'll love you
I told that girl I could start right away
When she said, Listen, baby, I got something to say
I got no car and it's breaking my heart
But I've found a driver and that's a start
Baby, you can drive my car
Yes, I'm gonna be a star
Baby, you can drive my car
And maybe I'll love you
Beep-beep mm beep-beep, yeah
Beep-beep mm beep-beep, yeah
Beep-beep mm beep-beep, yeah
Beep-beep mm beep-beep, yeah
Beep-beep mm beep-beep, yeah

 "> I'd have this playing on the car stereo and a friend of my son's would always sing "beep-beep-beep, beep-beep-beep, yeah!" oblivious to the violation of rhythm. He never could get it right, but he enjoyed it. |

| Hawk24 | Posted: Dec 07, 2007 - 06:23 This is a great tune that serves as a hell of a kick-off for the 'Rubber Soul' album. |

I think Rubber Soul shows exactly how not to be a cookie-cutter band. Unfortunately, few bands nowadays break the mold. |
