lyrics

I’m a friendly stranger in a black sedan
Won’t you hop inside my car?
I’ve got pictures, candy, I’m a lovable man
And I can take to to the nearest star

I’ll be your vehicle, baby
I’ll take you anywhere you wanna go
I’ll be your vehicle, baby
By now I’m sure you know

That I love you
Need you
Want you
Got to have you, child
Great God in Heaven, you know I love you

If you wanna be a movie star
Well I can take you to Hollywood
If you wanna stay just like you are
Well you know that I think you should

I’ll be your vehicle, baby
I’ll take you anywhere you wanna go
Be your vehicle, woman
By now I’m sure you know

That I love you
Need you
Want you
Got to have you, child
Great God in Heaven, you know I love you

‘Cause I love you
Need you
Want you
Got to have you, child
Great God in Heaven, you know I love you

You know that I love ya
I’ll take you anywhere
Anywhere you wanna go
I’ll be your vehicle, baby
I’ll be your vehicle, baby
Take you anywhere
I’ll be your vehicle, baby

‘Cause I love you
Need you
Want you
Got to have you, child
Great God in Heaven, you know I love you
