Default What's your favourite song relating to Fords or cars?

There have been many many songs written around cars over the years.

Some are classics, for example, "Little Deuce Coupe" by the Beach Boys, while others from years back are not so well known.

I'll kick off, with a lesser known one released in 2000, "55 Ford" by The Refreshments, which is one of my favourites and part of my driving playlist while out cruising in my new Pony;

Not so much relating too, but referencing a Ford..

The Eagles, Take it easy.
'Well I'm a standin' on a corner in Winslow Arizona, such a fine sight to see.
It's a girl my lord in a flat bed Ford slowin' down to take a look at me.'

The imagine that this verse conjures up just takes you away to that time.

RoKWiz... Your videos are not working.

Only put the part after the V=, of the YouTube link in between the Tube code tags.
Don't cut and paste the rest.

e.g. If YouTube video link = https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GAGGvGOUP7I

Then only insert GAGGvGOUP7I between the Tube button tags.
