Verse 1:

	          
	Well, she got her daddy's car
	                                       
	And she cruised through the hamburger stand, now
	             
	Seems she forgot all about the library
	                      Bb [2, 3: harmonies imply Bb7]
	Like she told her old man, now
	              
	And with the radio blastin' goes
	                             
	Cruisin' just as fast as she can, now

Chorus 1:

	                        
	And she'll have fun, fun, fun
	                       
	'Til her daddy takes the T-bird away
	                            [1, 3:   2, 4: ]
	(Fun, fun, fun, 'til her daddy takes the T-bird away)

Verse 2:

	Well, the girls can't stand her
	'Cause she walks, looks, and drives like an ace, now
	(You walk like an ace, now, you walk like an ace)
	She makes the Indy 500 look like
	The Roman chariot race, now
	(You look like an ace, now, you look like an ace)
	A lot of guys try to catch her
	But she leads 'em on a wild goose chase, now
	(You drive like an ace, now, you drive like an ace)

[repeat chorus]

Verse 3:

	Well, you knew all along
	That your dad was gettin' wise to you, now
	(You shouldn't-a lied, now, you shouldn't-a lied)
	And since he took your set of keys
	You been thinkin' that your fun is all through now
	(You shouldn't-a lied, now, you shouldn't-a lied)
	But you can come along with me
	'Cause we got a lot of things to do now
	(You shouldn't-a lied, now, you shouldn't-a lied)

Chorus 2 [2X]:

	And we'll have fun, fun, fun
	Now that Daddy took the T-bird away
	(Fun, fun, fun, now that Daddy took the T-bird away)

Coda [repeat to fade]:

	                                            
	Fun, fun, fun now that Daddy took the T-bird away
	                                   [harmonies imply ]
	Fun, fun, now that Daddy took the T-bird away
