Illinois Region AACA Favorite Things
Music by Rodgers and Hammerstein
Lyrics by Bill Vroman
Harleys and Corvettes and 36 Packards,
Red Bugs and Auburns and wood sided Chryslers,
The Plymouth Super Bird, the one with the wing.
These are a few of my favorite things.
Bob’s cream colored Caddy with wide white wall tires
Our bright red Chrysler with factory wires,
Humberto’s Lincoln with plenty of Bling.
These are a few of my favorite things.
If the carb coughs, when the breaks squeeek,
If the traffic’s been mad
I simply remember my favorite things
and then I don’t feel so bad.
Bob’s drop head Jaguar in burgundy livery,
Ed’s pickup truck and Phil’s sedan delivery,
Al’s 68 Charger with horsepower to bring,
These are a few of my favorite things.
Paul’s hot rod pickup and Jim’s Impala convertible,
Johns Hudson Coupe and Jerry’s Grand National,
Bob’s 36 Nash with the class that it brings,
These are a few of my favorite things.
Mike’s Stanley Steamers we all know so well,
Wendell’s Merc Monterey in spite of the smell,
Anything Jim Manz is willing to bring,
These are a few of my favorite things.
If the carb coughs, when the brakes squeek,
If the traffic’s been mad,
I simply remember my favorite things
and then I don’t feel so bad!
