Fun Fun Fun
Joe Elmore Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And she cruised through the hamburger stand now
Seems she forgot all about the library
Like she told her old man now
And with the radio blasting
Goes cruising just as fast as she can now
And she'll have fun fun fun
(Fun fun fun 'til her daddy takes the T-bird away)
Well the girls can't stand her
'Cause she walks looks and drives like an ace now
(You walk like an ace now you walk like an ace)
She makes the Indy 500 look like a Roman chariot race now
(You look like an ace now you look like an ace)
A lotta guys try to catch her
But she leads them on a wild goose chase now
(You drive like an ace now you drive like an ace)
And she'll have fun fun fun
'Til her daddy takes the T-bird away
(Fun fun fun 'til her daddy takes the T-bird away)
Well you knew all along
That your dad was gettin' wise to you now
(You shouldn't have lied now you shouldn't have lied)
And since he took your set of keys
You've been thinking that your fun is all through now
(You shouldn't have lied now you shouldn't have lied)
But you can come along with me
'Cause we gotta a lot of things to do now
(You shouldn't have lied now you shouldn't have lied)
And we'll have fun fun fun now that daddy took the T-bird away
(Fun fun fun now that daddy took the T-bird away)
And we'll have fun fun fun now that daddy took the T-bird away
(Fun fun fun now that daddy took the T-bird away)
(Wo wo wo wo woo woo woo)
(Fun fun now that daddy took the T-bird away)
(Fun fun now that daddy took the T-bird away)
(Fun fun now that daddy took the T-bird away)
(Fun fun now that daddy took the T-bird away)
(Fun fun now that daddy took the T-bird away)
(Fun fun now that daddy took the T-bird away)
The song 'Fun Fun Fun' by Joe Elmore is a classic rock and roll tune that tells the story of a girl who takes her father's car and goes out for a joyride, forgetting about all her responsibilities. The girl is having the time of her life, driving fast and blasting the radio, while boys try to impress her. However, the party comes to a halt when her father takes away the car keys, but she finds solace in the company of the singer who promises to show her a good time and make sure she keeps having fun.
The song is a timeless ode to youthful rebellion and the desire for freedom. The lyrics reflect the feeling of invincibility that comes with being young, and the fear of losing that freedom as one grows up. It portrays the power of music and the allure of fast cars as symbols of a carefree lifestyle.
