Chris Knight - My Old Cars Lyrics
Everyone I ever owned, except the one I'm driving now
Been stripped down to the bare bone and sent outta town
There's a Mustang and a GTO, bloody seats, and caved in grill
There's a scar on my forehead, for every busted windshield
'Cause I droven every one of 'em over the edge
It's a wonder I wasn't killed
My old cars, rise up from the wheel
I wish to hell and back was far enough
To outrun, your memory
I drive by that junkyard, count the times you broke my heart
Watchin' Jack play with a socket wrench
Drinkin' beer and yankin' parts
I can count these broken bones, cause broken bone will heal
Ain't no big deal
My old cars, they haunt me still
'Cause I droven every one of 'em over the edge
It's a wonder I wasn't killed
My old cars, rise up from the wheel
I wish to hell and back was far enough
To outrun, your memory
Last week I bought a 442, black as ace of spades
I sold my half of grandpa's land, bes he's rollin' is his grave
My friends say I'll get over you
But my friends they just don't know
Gonna take her out on a 41, see how fast she can go
My old cars, they haunt me still
'Cause I droven every one of 'em over the edge
It's a wonder I wasn't killed
My old cars, rise up from the wheel
I wish to hell and back was far enough
To outrun, your memory
I wish to hell and back was far enough
To outrun, your memory

Ford Mustang ♡
There were no survivors, Rest in Pieces
Had a '72 Tonino with a 351C and a 65 'Stang with a 302....this song brings back some good memories
How fast did the 442 go out on 41?? I had a 69 442, would get it.
+Wilma Haggard Wilma, 31 went thru the middle of the town I grew up in but we took the 69 442 out on I-75 before it was finished between Chattanooga and Atlanta. That's where u could really run it. I think 133 was about the top speed.
Hwy 41 runs through his home town.
my old car 1969 roadrunner black on black straight up mopar power
How did I just find this song? It's bad ass, I love it! And so will my hubby (Lawd every time we see an old muscle car he has to tell me everything about it, LOL). I am going to have to check out that website, it will probably bring me to tears. Hmmh, perhaps I will find my 70 Chevelle to spruce up on there :)
THIS IS AMAZING SONG!
Yea you're right it's SAMs savage town
Chris Knight is BIG here in Texas we love him....
the only good old car song on youtube so far
hey do you know where that charger rt picture was taken from ? My husband swears it was the one he helped build for his dad, who sold it....but he is pointing out technicals that do not sound typical, can you help solve a issue? thanks have a merry christmas!
Oh thank you, I really enjoyed this :-). Not heard of Chris Knight before, a friend from the States sent me this link
If I was a car, Id be a bit worn and dinged from some careless owners but still with enough fire under the hood to take you anywhere you need to go LOL
Absolutely wonderful! When and where is his next concert, does anyone know?
Yes I agree 100 %
yeah ‘My Old Cars”always looked at the women in my life as cars too. Some were high octane hot rods that were dangerous for my health, other cost me a bundle and some were wrecks from the get go. I rode them as far as I could take them, some I left by road side with the pink on the seat, others got crashed,some I just had to let go. I miss them all but especially the one I wish I didn’t have to part with. That one that would have kill’d me had I stayed on the gas. But each haunts my memories,
Cool video man! Nice work
@noweirdbeard Knight can describe a complicated story in very simple real terms. He is awesome.
i had to see an idiot sell a 2 66 impalas and an early 80's camaro for junk and he wouldnt sell them to anybody besides the junk yard
Poor muscle cars :(
@rmstudio Yeah, I'm from eastern ky where justifed is set and Chris is pretty big there. Songs like down the river would really fit the show.
@chico280 I was running out of pictures
That extreme close up of his neck was just brilliant..
seems a lot of yall would like the lyrics. i got em so message me if you'd like me to send it your way.
I don't know. If you search all you can find are sites that say they have lyrics but only sale ringtones. Whats up with that.
Seriously, why are the lyrics to this song unfindable?
This kicks ass! Wish I still had my '67 LeMans...
Great song, does anybody have the lyrics of it? Cause I can't find them anywhere...
Great video! I am a HUGE fan of CK and this song gets me because right now I'm 24 and I own a 2005 GTO and I just KNOW one day I'm gonna think of that car and start singing this song. Probably around the time my hair starts going and me heart gets broken for the 100th time. God bless and I'm glad to see other CK fans on the internet. Music is my fire for life and Chris' albums have saved my life. I got to tell him that in person too!
Chris Knight seems to rock out a little more on his new album
Easily my favourite Chris Knight song from his new album "Heart of Stone". All the songs are superb to be honest, but this song has something...
Thanks Man. I put it together quick the shots of the 442 sliding came from The Hitcher trailer.
good video,just seen chris in concert not to long ago..
