The Refreshments - Continental lyrics

rate me

Well I believe my death will be

Quick and accidental

And I want you to bury me

In my continental

I’ve driven this old car all my life

Going places with me precious wife

And now that she’s gone and I am not

This old car is all that I’ve got

I don’t mean to be sentimental

I got something on my mind that’s sacramental

And I believe my death will be

Quick and accidental

And I want you to bury me

In my continental

Well I know that I am asking quite a bit

My last wish is unusual I admit

And I realize you’ll have to get me quite a hold

To fit both me, my car and my soul

Now, I don’t mean to be sentimental

I got something on my mind that’s sacramental

And I believe my death will be

Quick and accidental

And I want you to bury me

In my continental

They made him in 56 and 57

And that’s how I wanna ride on him to heaven

Just put me behind the wheel and down I go

My funeral’s gonna be quite a show

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust

Soon I’ll be going home, in god I trust

And now I’m flying down the road I can’t be late

I know my wife is waiting by the gate

Now, I don’t mean to be sentimental

I got something on my mind that’s sacramental

And I believe my death will be

Quick and accidental

And I want you to bury me

In my continental

I believe my death will be

Quick and accidental

And I want you to bury me

In my continental

In my continental

Yeah in my continental.
