 x2
 I guess  I should have known
 by the way  you parked your car sideways
 That it wouldn't last.  See you're  the kinda person
 That believes  in makin' out once
love  'em and leave  'em fast.
 I guess  I must be dumb 'cause you had a pocket  full of horses
Trojan  and some  of them used
 but it was Saturday  night
 I guess that makes  it all right
 and you say what  have I got  to lose".
 And honey I say:
Little  red  corvette
baby  you're much  too fast.
Little  red  corvette
you  need a love that's gonna  last.
 A body  like yours ought to be in jail
 'Cause it's on the verge of bein' obscene.
 Move over baby
give  me the keys.
 I'm gonna try  to tame your little red love  machine.

 2nd verse
 Guess I should have closed my eyes
 when you drove me to the place
 Where your horses run free
 'cause I felt a little ill
 When I saw all the pictures of the jockeys
 that were there before me.
 Little red corvette baby
 you're much to fast. . .
 Little red corvette
 honey you gotta slow down.
 Little red corvette
 'cos if you don't you're gonna run into the ground.
