Pontiac Blues
(Verse 1)
Well, I woke up this morninā, sun peekinā through the trees,
Saw my Pontiac sittinā, caught up in the weeds.
Rusty hood and broken wheels, dreams all laid to waste,
Aināt no more cruisinā, just a memory I chase.
(Chorus)
Got them Pontiac blues, oh, so low and down,
That old car used to roll, now itās just a ghost in this town.
With every tear that falls, I can hear that engine sigh,
Pontiac blues, baby, watch my good times die.
(Verse 2)
She used to shine like silver, turninā heads on the street,
Now sheās lost in the shadows, canāt feel the rhythm of her beat.
Once weād drive ātil sunset, laugh beneath the stars,
Now sheās rustinā in the field, a monument to my scars.
(Chorus)
Got them Pontiac blues, oh, so low and down,
That old car used to roll, now itās just a ghost in this town.
With every tear that falls, I can hear that engine sigh,
Pontiac blues, baby, watch my good times die.
(Bridge)
Time donāt stop for nobody, leaves you in the dust,
Every mile we traveled, now itās just a must.
Gonna sing my sad song, let the whole world know,
This broken-down beauty, sheās the last place I go.
(Chorus)
Got them Pontiac blues, oh, so low and down,
That old car used to roll, now itās just a ghost in this town.
With every tear that falls, I can hear that engine sigh,
Pontiac blues, baby, watch my good times die.
(Outro)
So here I sit and wonder, as the days slip away,
That old Pontiacās a memory, but Iām still here to stay.
With my Pontiac blues, Iāll carry on this tune,
Underneath the faded stars, and the light of the moon.
