I just want to drive (My MGB)

Hey everyone! I just did "A Thing" as JC would say I created this song with a wee bit of help from Andy Irvine AKA AI. The song is a wee bit "Anti-EV" and cars are stuffed with too much tech. The footage shows me driving my 50-year "Old Analog" MGB Roadster V8. in the beautiful Aberdeenshire countryside. It all came together perfectly!
The title "I just want to drive"
I remember when a tank of gas
Wouldn't cost me all I had
Now I’m workin' just to fill 'er up,
Oh, Lord, ain't that sad?
They put screens in every corner,
With buttons, I don’t know,
But all I need’s that open road,
And the wheels that take me home.
I just wanna drive, don’t need all the fuss,
Give me a truck that don’t talk back or make a scene for us.
No fancy gadgets, no Wi-Fi inside,
All I need's that engine purrin', and the wind on my side.
Yeah, I just wanna drive, I just wanna drive.
They say it's progress, but I ain't sure,
Cars used to be so pure.
Now it's autopilot this and that,
Where’s the freedom that I adore?
I don’t need a screen to tell me
Where my heart wants to go,
Just a simple ride and a highway sign
To show me what I know.
I just wanna drive, don’t need all the fuss,
Give me a truck that don’t talk back or make a scene for us.
No fancy gadgets, no Wi-Fi inside,
All I need's that engine purrin', and the wind on my side.
Yeah, I just wanna drive, I just wanna drive.
Don’t need a car that’s smarter than me,
Don’t need a loan for eternity.
Just give me a ride that runs on dreams,
Where freedom's still the key.
I just wanna drive, don’t need all the fuss,
Give me a truck that don’t talk back or make a scene for us.
No fancy gadgets, no Wi-Fi inside,
All I need's that engine purrin', and the wind on my side.
Yeah, I just wanna drive, I just wanna drive.
Keep your tech and your rising costs,
All that’s real is what we’ve lost.
I don’t need a million lights to thrive,
No, I just wanna drive…
I remember when a tank of gas
Wouldn't cost me all I had
Now I’m workin' just to fill 'er up,
Oh, Lord, ain't that sad?
They put screens in every corner,
With buttons I don’t know,
But all I need’s that open road,
And the wheels that take me home.
I just wanna drive, don’t need all the fuss,
Give me a truck that don’t talk back or make a scene for us.
No fancy gadgets, no Wi-Fi inside,
All I need's that engine purrin', and the wind on my side.
Yeah, I just wanna drive, I just wanna drive.
They say it's progress, but I ain't sure,
Cars used to be so pure.
Now it's autopilot this and that,
Where’s the freedom that I adore?
I don’t need a screen to tell me
Where my heart wants to go,
Just a simple ride and a highway sign
To show me what I know.
I just wanna drive, don’t need all the fuss,
Give me a truck that don’t talk back or make a scene for us.
No fancy gadgets, no Wi-Fi inside,
All I need's that engine purrin', and the wind on my side.
Yeah, I just wanna drive, I just wanna drive.
Don’t need a car that’s smarter than me,
Don’t need a loan for eternity.
Just give me a ride that runs on dreams,
Where freedom's still the key.
I just wanna drive, don’t need all the fuss,
Give me a truck that don’t talk back or make a scene for us.
No fancy gadgets, no Wi-Fi inside,
All I need's that engine purrin', and the wind on my side.
Yeah, I just wanna drive, I just wanna drive.
Keep your tech and your rising costs,
All that’s real is what we’ve lost.
I don’t need a million lights to thrive,
No, I just wanna drive…

The song was inspired by my partner Linda, who came up with the phrase "I Just Want to Drive" after reading an article about soaring prices and cars stuffed with too much tech.
