[00:00:00] Riding with Private Malone (In the Style of David Ball) (Demo Vocal Version) - ProSource Karaoke (专业卡拉ok)

[00:00:04] I was just out of the service thumbing through the classifieds

[00:00:10] When an ad that said "Old Chevy" somehow caught my eye

[00:00:15] The lady didn't know the year or even if it ran

[00:00:20] But I had that thousand dollars in my hand

[00:00:25] It was way back in the corner of this old ramshackle barn

[00:00:30] With thirty years of dust and dirt on that green army tarp

[00:00:35] When I pulled the cover off it took away my breath

[00:00:40] What she called a Chevy was a sixty six Corvette

[00:00:46] I felt a little guilty as I counted out the bills

[00:00:52] What a thrill I got when I sat behind the wheel

[00:00:58] I opened up the glove box and that's when I found the note

[00:01:03] The date was nineteen-sixty six and this is what it wrote

[00:01:08] He said "My name is Private Andrew Malone

[00:01:14] And if you're reading this then I didn't make it home

[00:01:20] But for every dream that shattered another one comes true

[00:01:25] This car was once a dream of mine now it belongs to you

[00:01:31] And though you may take her and make her your own

[00:01:37] You'll always be riding with Private Malone"

[00:01:47] Well it didn't take me long at all I had her running good

[00:01:52] I love to hear those horses thunder underneath her hood

[00:01:56] I had her shining like a diamond and I'd put the rag top down

[00:02:02] All the pretty girls would stop and stare as I drove her through town

[00:02:08] The buttons on the radio didn't seem to work quite right

[00:02:13] But it picked up that oldie show especially late at night

[00:02:20] I'd get the feeling sometimes if I turned real quick I'd see

[00:02:24] A soldier riding shotgun in the seat right next to me

[00:02:30] It was a young man named Private Andrew Malone

[00:02:36] Who fought for his country and never made it home

[00:02:42] But for every dream that's shattered another one comes true

[00:02:47] This car was once a dream of his back when it was new

[00:02:52] He told me to take her and make her my own

[00:02:58] And I was proud to be riding with Private Malone

[00:03:09] One night it was raining hard I took the curve too fast

[00:03:14] I still don't remember much about that fiery crash

[00:03:20] Someone said they thought they saw a soldier pull me out

[00:03:25] They didn't get his name but I know without a doubt

[00:03:30] It was a young man named Private Andrew Malone

[00:03:36] Who fought for his country and never made it home

[00:03:42] But for every dream that's shattered another one comes true

[00:03:47] This car was once a dream of his back when it was new

[00:03:52] I know I wouldn't be here if he hadn't tagged along

[00:03:58] Yeah that night I was riding with Private Malone
