verse 1
Said goodbye to that car
That took a bullet in the roof in New Haven
That saw our sad estrangement
Idling there on the pavement
119,657 and the engine blew
119,657 and I thought of you
Said goodbye to that car in the cul-de-sac
Said goodbye to that car, took the plates off the back
verse 2
Pulled off the charms and the beads
Unceremoniously
It was the end of an era
I kicked off the rear view mirror
Bridge
From the first day it run and
To the rust stains in the cracks
I watched the heap of metal lose its sun
As the sky turned black
119,657 and the engine blew
119,657 and I thought of you
Said goodbye to that car in the cul-de-sac
Said goodbye to that car, took the plates off the back
Outro
119,657 and the engine blew
119,657 and I thought of you
119,657 and the engine blew
119,657 and I thought of you
119,657 and I thought of you
