Acapulco Blue

Played a little restaurant gig made enough in tips
To buy some chrome Cragar mags and spinners
Straight six, three speed, Kenwood with JVCs
Bad Company and Lynyrd Skynyrd
In a parking lot at Duncanville High
I’d sit out on the hood and watch the girls go by
I was hell on wheels in that ‘68 Coupe
Just living life in Acapulco Blue, Acapulco Blue
Five bucks bought half a tank
And I’d fly that old Mustang across the Trinity River
For Thunderbird and a pack o' smokes
Then I’d hit all them back roads drive it like we’d all just live forever
By Mountain Creek Lake, Mary Jane and Michelob
In that big back seat, she pulled me close
And the wheels turned fast, next thing we knw
We took that ride in Acapulco Blue, Acapulco Blu
It’s sitting in a junkyard now, all the windows broke out
Like some old horse put out to pasture
Buried deep in that glovebox are some memories I’ve lost
I can close my eyes and go right back there
To that parking lot at Duncanville High
I’d sit out on the hood and watch the girls go by
I was hell on wheels in that ‘68 Coupe
Just living life in Acapulco Blue, Acapulco Blue
Straight six, three speed, Kenwood with JVCs
Bad Company and Lynyrd Skynyrd
