Lyrics & Translation

[English]

I guess I should've known

By the way you parked your car sideways

That it wouldn't last

See, you're the kinda person that believes in makin' out once

Love 'em and leave 'em fast

I guess I must be dumb

'Cause you had a pocket full of horses

Trojan and some of them used

But it was Saturday night, I guess that makes it all right

And you say, "What have I got to lose?"

And honey, I say

Little Red Corvette

Baby, you're much too fast (Oh, oh)

Little Red Corvette

You need a love that's gonna last

I guess I should've closed my eyes

When you drove me to the place where your horses run free

'Cause I felt a little ill when I saw all the pictures

Of the jockeys that were there before me

Believe it or not, I started to worry

I wondered if I had enough class

But it was Saturday night, I guess that makes it all right

And you say: "Baby, have you got enough gas?"

Oh yeah

Little Red Corvette

Baby, you're much too fast

Yes, you are

Little Red Corvette

You need to find a love that's gonna last

Oh oh

Ooh ooh ooh

Ooh ooh ooh

A body like yours

Oughta be in jail

'Cause it's on the verge of bein' obscene

Now, move over, baby

Gimme the keys

I'm gonna try to tame your little red love machine

Little Red Corvette

Baby, you're much too fast

Little Red Corvette

Need to find a lover that's gonna last

Little Red Corvette (Ooh)

Honey, you got to slow down

(Got to slow down)

Little Red Corvette

'Cause if you don't, you're gonna run your little red corvette

Right in the ground

(Little Red Corvette)

Right down to the ground

(Honey, you got to slow down)

You, you, you got to slow down

(Little Red Corvette)

You're movin' much too fast, too fast

Need to find a love that's gonna last

Oh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Girl, you got an ass like I never seen

And the ride

I say, the ride is so smooth

You must be a Limousine

Oh, baby, you're much too fast

Little Red Corvette

You need a love

You need a love that's, uh, that's gonna last

(Little Red Corvette)

Babe, you got to slow down

(You got to slow down)

Little Red Corvette

'Cause if you don't, 'cause if you don't

You're gonna run your body right into the ground

(Right into the ground)

Right into the ground

(Right into the ground)

Right into the ground

(Right into the ground)

(Little Red Corvette, oh)

Ooh ooh ooh whoo

Ooh ooh ooh

Ooh ooh ooh

Ooh ooh ooh
