Smell of Gasoline - Rev. Horton Heat

Betty was a girl

I knew back in school

A really funny person

She was pretty cool

She said that pistons pumping

Really turned her on

But the next thing she said

Was way long gone

She liked the smell of gasoline

Liked the smell of gasoline

We were only seventeen

She liked the smell of gasoline

Brother’s Chevy Nova

Parked in the front yard

All the neighbor boys

Were trying really hard

To hang around with Betty

Underneath the shade tree

But Betty only wanted

To hang around with me

So young and dumb

So dumb was I

Dumb not to hear what she implied

If I’d known then

What I know now

I’d been all over that

All over that and how
