American Beauty

When at first I saw you
The sun was setting
It's rays danced right through
You were tall and just stunning 

Dressed all up in cobalt blue
As I passed by, my neck bending
I knew what I had to do
I acted fast, no hesitating

Turning back, I ran to you
A panic attack my heart was throbbing
Eyes on your rack, I could only drool
I paid cash for this beautiful machine.

My Chevy Silverado
