lyrics

Althea Adelina Greene, the sweetest ride I seen. Camshaft and timing gear are all she really needs and down the road she speeds, me chasing after her.
Won't you come back to me, Althea Adelina Greene, won't you take me for a ride? We could be together true, we could travel to places never been before, and I would go away with her if she'll run, run, run, run,
run, run, run,
run, run, run, run
run, run, run
run, run, run, please start up and run, please, Althea.

Althea Adelina's down, she don't come around, stuck in the junkyard muck. How my heart burns when her wheels don't turn. When is she on the move? How's her engine been? It's a new one, 318. She would pass my inspection. I'd go with her in all directions if she'll run, run, run, run,
run, run, run,
run, run, run, run
run, run, run
run, run, run, please start up and run, please, Althea.

Althea Adelina's stray, a hundred fifty dollars away. I'm hoofing it on foot to work so I can pay to get her back, get her back on track. Without her I have no drive. All the eyes fall in line with my sweet '69. Her contours are smooth as a sheet, her muffler is soft and sweet, and her interior I would seat
all the passengers that get to ride her, feel her air-suspension shocks. Won't you come back to me, Althea Adelina Greene? I won't take you out in inclement weather. We won't travel hell for leather. I won't get you towed for not paying the parking meter. I'll take you out to a drive-in theatre.

If you'll run, run, run, run......

If I stick in my key will you start up and run?
If I stick in my key will you start up and run?
If I stick in my key will you start up and run, please Althea?
