Stolen cars and winding hills
captured on these movie reels
Pretty girls who want to dance or sing
wearing nothing but a shoe string
and they ain’t a’wearin’ no shoes
they ain’t a’wearin’ no shoes
They’d trade it all for a place behind the wheel
of stolen cars on winding hills

She was married at twenty two
to a man who left her black and blue
Word got out why she left town
It got around where she’d be found
What’s a girl to do?
What’s a girl to do?
She’s someone’s daughter, somebody’s next meal
in them stolen cars on those winding hills

But there’s a place beneath her skin
where she won’t let anybody in
She hides it from the camera’s lens
to give up to just one man at a time
to give up to just one man at a time

Stolen cars and winding hills
captured on these movie reels
Some girls will do about anything
to paint their nails and their face with the cocaine
They live with them blues
They live with them blues
In California, everything looks so real
even stolen cars and winding hills
