Cozy Little Compact Car

Call my baby
On the phone
I told her, "Baby, don't go far,"
"I'll be over right away in my cozy little compact car."

When I saw her with a crowd
My heart fell like a fallen star
'Cause she asked them all to come
In my cozy little compact car

I found it hard to grin
As they started to climb in
Lucy, Frank, and Jim and Mary-Sue
Then came Harry, and Lenore
And before I closed the door
A half a dozen more jammed in there too

Started rolling down the road
The squeaking like an old guitar
What a way to spend the day
In my cozy little compact car

There wasn't room to sneeze
Just elbows, arms, and knees
As we passed the drug store on the square
And then I thought I screamed!
When she saw the football team
And said, "C'mon! There's lots of room to spare!"



My girl was so close
It was fun
We were like olives in a jar
And we'd go out every night
With the whole gang packed in tight
In my cozy little compact car
