Come over here, honey, I gotta talk to you
She knows I'm a certified mechanic
If it's broke I can fix it in a minute Got boxes full of wrenches
Got a background buildin' engines
And my name on a dirty shirt
So I said "Where'd you get those new Pirellis?"
She said "What the heck are new Pirellis?
"And why you gettin' so defensive?
"I was just out with my girlfriends
"For a sale at the mall and a hairdo
"Thought I'd drop the car off for a tune-up
"So what?"
I said "Baby, I ain't callin' you a liar, honey
"But a girl just don't go get a new set of tires"
Unless she's leavin'
Unless she ain't comin' back
Unless she drove 'em over broken gla** and run 'em all flat
Unless racin' Dale Jr. is her secret desire
A girl just don't go get a new set of tires
Now she knows she can tippy-toe right past me
In new clothes, shoes and shiny j**elery
With a box of chocolate candy
And a big bouquet of daisies
And I wouldn't even blink
But uh-uh, ain't no sneakin' around it
If it rolls, I know everything about it
I've been up and underneath it
I can eat and drink and sleep it
Baby, cars are my life
Now you might soap it and wash it in the drive, honey
But a girl just don't go get a new set of tires
Unless she's leavin'
Unless she ain't comin' back
Unless she drove 'em over broken gla** and run 'em all flat
Unless racin' Dale Jr. is her secret desire
A girl just don't go get a new set of tires
She can justify the glitter-eyes,
Gold toe nail polish, Gucci sungla**es
And the bottle of Italian red wine
Unless she's got her eyes on another town and another guy
A girl just don't go get a new set of tires
Unless she's leavin'
Unless she ain't comin' back
Unless she drove 'em over broken gla** and run 'em all flat
Unless racin' Dale Jr. is your secret desire
A girl just don't go get a new set
Unless she's leavin'
Unless she ain't comin' back
Unless she's prone to burnin' rubber at the drop of a hat
Unless racin' Dale Jr. is your secret desire
A girl just don't go get a new set of tires
Unless she's leavin'
Unless she's leavin'
Unless she's leavin'
