CHORUS

Well I never learned to drive, boys

But you know when i do

I'll go up to the blueys

And drink tinnies till I spew

I'll wake up in the morning

Just glad to be alive

But I never learned to drive, boys

I never learned to drive

Well I wish I owned a Peugeot ute from 1962
With chromed up type A hubcabs
All done up in Holden blue
I’d cruise around the suburbs
My girlfriend by my side
But I never learned to drive boys, I never learned to drive

CHORUS

Well I wish I owned a Datsun Z from 1975
Id knock holes in the muffler
Down the Main Street I would drive
and by that burbled roaring
Lord you’d know that I’d arrived
But i never learned to drive boys, I never learned to drive

CHORUS

Well I wish I owned a Hoey
In shiny Mazda green
I’d hoon it though the car shows
Hear those v8 pistons scream
And all the crowd assembled
Would wonder at the scene
But I never learned to drive boys, I never learned to drive

CHORUS

Hell, I’d even drive a Beetle with peeling green veneer
A grinding in one cylinder
And missing second gear
Cos you know that piece of shit
Would still go anywhere but here
But I never learned to drive boys, I never learned to drive
