Lyrics
I saw the car and thought someone fantastic's gotta drive that
You came walkin' across the parking lot and there was just no lookin' back
That '57 Chevy was the start of something good
And it wasn't just the 350 that roared beneath the hood
It's all about the wheels
Oh baby, it's all about the wheels
Ridin' up Brownell Mountain on the back of your red dirt bike
My arms around your waist I was so happy to hold on tight
Drivin' over giant bolders as big as my '71 LeMans
I buried my chin in your shoulder and just smiled and hung on
It's all about the wheels
Oh baby, it's all about the wheels
It's all about the wheels
Oh honey, it's all about the wheels
Then there's Berry Big Block a '69 GMC stepside
The 396 roared and rumbled I couldn't wait to get inside
You didn't build that pickup truck to try to get in on some action
But you torqued it up added a ratchet and a rear-end posi-traction
It's all about the wheels
Oh baby, it's all about the wheels
It's all about the wheels
Oh honey, it's all about the wheels
Now it's twenty-five years later and we're still collecting wheels
Buying Hemming's monthly and keepin' an eye out for good deals
By the looks of our collection you might say our tastes have tamed
My Corvair and your Sharknose show our style hasn't waned
So meet me at midnight at the stopsign at Maple and Pine
We'll drag race our little beauties a quarter-mile in a straight line
The thrill will make you wanna push the peddle through the floor
No matter who wins the race I'll be climbing through your door
It's all about the wheels
Oh baby, it's all about the wheels
It's all about the wheels
Oh honey, it's all about the wheels
It's all about the wheels
Oh baby, it's all about the wheels
