MGBGT The Monkees

Lately, my mind is driftin' back to former days that used to be
I think about some folks I knew and of my MGB GT
People, let me tell you that if I had to make a recipe
For fun in driving, I would have to spell it MGB GT

Cruising, choosing, using and amusing myself, not a care
Striving, thriving, hot rod driving, not arriving anywhere
Folks, this little car of mine was like a kitten purring throatily
Sometimes, it even seemed to soar into the heavens, my red MGB GT

Tooling, fueling my good feeling, schooling me in ways to go
Soaring, flooring it, adoring it, my little way to go
Folks, this little car of mine was like a kitten purring throatily
Sometimes, it even seemed to soar into the heavens, my red MGB GT

(But I)
I learned you have to lose some things
Before you treasure them, that's how it goes
(And I)
I didn't give time to my car
And lost my car to time, what did I know?

And so life carries on and lots of things are better now for me
And yet I think back on those golden times when I had my red MGB GT
(But I and I)
