Description: Several years ago, Jack wrote this song both celebrating and lamenting his ownership of two 80's GM vehicles. In the time since it's conception, the Camaro for which the song is named has been sold, but the tune has become a live favorite of Apex fans. Now, FINALLY, you can bring the magic home with you. Thank you for your loyal and passionate support of our music--and for your patience ;)

lyrics

In a worn-out Chevrolet I turn the key and start my day,
Take a drive down Watson Road and wait for my head to explode.
I wanna drive but it don't seem right for me to be with you tonight.
There's lots of stuff that I gotta fix, so, let's get you up on the lift.

And no one else's got what you got,
Four-wheel disc and new exhaust...

And I was waiting on a lube job.
Almost did it in the parking lot.
I was waiting on the old girl to start for me.

Tondelayo
Tondelayo

Got lots of stuff so I need a van--throw it all right in the back.
Think I'll get one with a bed, so we can lay our pretty heads.
I see your 454 Trans Am, watch you blow by real fast.
You know I got a Camaro--It's my baby, Tondelayo.

And no one else's got what I got
Just built a brand-new engine block.

And I was waiting on a lube job.
Almost did it in the parking lot.
I was waiting on the old girl to start for me.
