The Car Was The One

O Carro Era o Cara

The Car Was The One

No verão de 63 eu tava na ativaIn summer '63 I was staying alive
na pista de corrida, sonhando em dirigirhanging at the races, hoping to drive
Quando acabaram o fim de semana e carregaram os carrosWhen they were done with the weekend and loading the cars
não consegui um passe, então fui pro barI couldn't get a pass so I went to the bar
Tô lá no canto tomando uma cervejaI'm up in the corner nursing a beer
quem entra rindo e brincando aqui?who should come laughing and joking in here
mas é o Bobby Brown, o vencedor da corrida de esportivosbut Bobby Brown, the winner of the sports car race
com uns amigos e uma garota, cara, ela iluminou o lugarwith some friends and a girl, man, she lit up the place
Bobby era um cara doido - um verãoBobby was a wild boy - one summer
ele derrubou a parede de um motel com um martelohe knocked down a motel wall with a hammer
Ele fazia qualquer coisa - uma noite por uma apostaHe'd do anything - one night for a bet
ele correu pelos milharais em um Corvettehe raced through the cornfields in a Corvette
Eu pensei que devia ser uma adrenalina ser assimI thought it's got to be a thrill to be like that
com a garota linda e ser o rei da pistawith the beautiful girl and be king of the track
Mas a verdade é que quando tudo acabouBut the truth is when all was said and done
era a Cobra dele que eu queria - o carro era o carait was his Cobra I wanted - the car was the one
Era a Cobra dele que eu queria - o carro era o caraIt was his Cobra I wanted - the car was the one
O carro era o cara - o carro era o caraThe car was the one - the car was the one
