Going For a Song

She was going, going, going
Going for a song
When I heard that engine running
I knew she was the one


Well how could I resist her
She was sweeter than a song
The price was right, she was going cheap
Yeah’ she was going for a song


I was thinking of the summertime
Thought this soft top could be fun
I didn’t come tyre kicking  
No I never haggled with the sum


She was going, going, going
Going for a song
When I heard that engine running
I knew she was the one


Sometimes were not searching
When surprizes come our way
This sporty little classic
Just simply blew me away


Wow’ what a steal I was thrilled
I never expected this
Bargains don’t come everyday
Especially not like this


She was going, going, going
Going for a song
When I heard that engine running
I knew she was the one


She was mint inside and out
Her paint gleaming like the sun
It must have been my lucky day
She still had miles to run


She was on the button
On the money too
Yeah’ she was going for a song
That came right out the blue 


She was going, going, going
Going for a song
Yes this motor was a blessing
Always dreamed of owning one
