Key A capo 2
[Intro]
G G
[Verse 1]
G
There's nothing in the world that pleases me
D7 G
Like a pretty little girl from across the sea
But I think I went a little too far
D7 G
I got myself a foreign car
[Chorus 1]
D7
Cause you can't get in and you can't get out
G
Unless you do some squirming about
D7
Maybe you're not a lover but in case you are
G G G
You can't do much loving in a foreign car
[Verse 2]
G
You can fill up the tank and drive all day
D7 G
On a gallon of gas you'd go a long long way
But if it's a love buggy you're looking for
D7 G
Don't waste your time in a foreign car
[Chorus 2]
D7
Cause you don't have a room for your heart to beat
G
All crowded up in a bucket seat
D7
Well the pretty moon a shining up among the stars
G
Love sure does suffer in a foreign car
[Solo]
| D | D G | G D |

[Verse 3]
G
Take a ride with me tonight after dark
D7 G
See the little foreign buggy’s down in the park
I cannot figure out what they go there for
D7 G
You can't make love in a foreign car
[Chorus 2]
D7
Cause you don't have a room for your heart to beat
G
All crowded up in a bucket seat
D7
Well the pretty moon a shining up among the stars
G G
Love sure does suffer in a foreign car
