My Heavy Chevy

Needs an oil change

Sitting here waiting for my brother to be done

He is having an assessment, and I'm sure it's not fun

I drive a Chevy

My Grandson says it's heavy

Whatever does that mean?

A compliment or is he being mean?

My car is newer than my Honey's

But he says I put too many miles on Chevy's

He says he has to change the oil 4-5 times a year

I whisper in his ear

What a nice, sweet Dear

you are. Then I say whatever would I do

without my Honey bunny boo

It works! Silly, I know

He wanted to change it today, but I had to go

I couldn't wait until tomorrow

He will be changing my oil in the snow!

Author's Note: Heavy Chevy was around in the 70s, and it was a performance-oriented version of the Chevelle, designed for young buyers seeking a sporty car at an affordable price. I didn't own one then, but I have owned a few sporty cars and trucks in my day.
