"Foreign Car" was done by Hank Locklin on his 1962
album titled "Please Help Me I'm Falling". Side 1
started with "Please Help Me I'm Falling". Side 2
led off with "Send Me The Pillow That You Dream On"
Those 2 alone make it a great album. But it also
included "My Old Home Town" and "It's A Little
More Like Heaven". "Foreign Car" was the last
song on side 2. The album had 12 songs. Some more
of the words are as follows:
Take a ride with me tonite after dark
See the little foreign buggers down in the park
I cannot figure out what they go there for
You can't make love in a foreign car
Cause you don't have room
For your heart to beat
All crowded up in a bucket seat
Maybe you're not a lover
But in case you are
You can't do much loving in a foreign car

This was one of the first albums I ever purchased.
I have listened to it for over 35 years now.
Should you wish to have all the lyrics, let me
know. Good to see there are still people
interested in older country songs which are really
great!

P.S. There is some good guitar playing on Foreign
Car, being a guitar player myself, and enjoying
the guitar playing on the older records.
