The Lyrics
In his car he wants to escort me
But I'm frightened of the velocity
Oh there must be something magic inside
Not understood
Cause he tells me that the horses all hide
Under a hood
Honk honk, speedin' round now
Horseless carriage
Honk honk, through the town now
Horseless carriage, uh-huh
I fear this strange metal animal
Because I know it is unnatural
Oh, he says that twenty miles to the hour
Is nothing to spurn
But I feel my inner workings turn sour
As though in a churn
Beep beep, gearin' down now
Horseless carriage
Beep beep, hear that sound now
Horseless carriage, uh-huh
He wants me
To spend an evening with him
He wants me
If we can go for a "spin"
Honk honk, speedin' round now
Horseless carriage
Honk honk, through the town now
Horseless carriage
Beep beep, hold on now
Horseless carriage
Beep beep, bumpy ground now
Horseless carriage
Honk honk
He said sit up, he said sit up
Ye gods, can't you slow it down
Honk honk, horseless carriage
I wish he would let me walk
But I'm frightened of the velocity
Oh there must be something magic inside
Not understood
Cause he tells me that the horses all hide
Under a hood
Honk honk, speedin' round now
Horseless carriage
Honk honk, through the town now
Horseless carriage, uh-huh
I fear this strange metal animal
Because I know it is unnatural
Oh, he says that twenty miles to the hour
Is nothing to spurn
But I feel my inner workings turn sour
As though in a churn
Beep beep, gearin' down now
Horseless carriage
Beep beep, hear that sound now
Horseless carriage, uh-huh
He wants me
To spend an evening with him
He wants me
If we can go for a "spin"
Honk honk, speedin' round now
Horseless carriage
Honk honk, through the town now
Horseless carriage
Beep beep, hold on now
Horseless carriage
Beep beep, bumpy ground now
Horseless carriage
Honk honk
He said sit up, he said sit up
Ye gods, can't you slow it down
Honk honk, horseless carriage
I wish he would let me walk

Glad to see you getting into some history and machinery- 555! Hard to believe that it all started with Karl Benz's 1886 Motorwagen with ICE powerplant:
