Lyrics
1. A young man with an automobile
Sitting alone one night near the shore
He asked me to take a walk with him
We went through the park, night after dark
And we were sitting there all alone
When a man with the seventy horse crew
Ask me to take a long ride with him
Asked me to take a long ride with him
Chorus:
I am the young man with the auto
We’ll go through the wonderful field
Girlies like you with eyes so blue
You’re the queen of the motor crew
Are you willing to marry me
A young man of the motor crew?
Are you willing to marry me
A young man of the motor crew
2. One evening I sat in the same park
Thinking of that night’s wedding joyride
When my husband hollers, “Is that you?
Oh, come take a joyride to Dover
We’ll go through the sweet field of clover
On that automobile joyride, my dear
With the young man of the motor crew
With the young man of the motor crew
