She was a beauty in the trader, so I signed my name
C C/G C G
Now she’s parked out back and I’m feelin’ a little unwise
[Verse]
C C/G G
Got a smooth shift, low miles
C C7 F
But a peek under her skirt just drives me wild
C C/G G C
Boy, it’s hard to see anything coming with stars in your eyes
[Chorus]

Does anybody wanna buy a half-ton van?

Your best offer is my worst fear

Why don’t you take her for a spin?
F C Amin7
She’ll go anywhere, the dealer swore she can
G C
Does anybody wanna buy a half-ton van?
[Verse]
C C/G G
Cold heat, hot air
C C7 F
Test drive her off the main road, she’s better than fair

That crack in the windshield’s what’s keepin’ the price way down
C C/G G
Don’t mind the holes, don’t mind the smell

Leaks a little oil, but you can barely tell
C C/G G C
Been sittin’ on the lot for months, what a find I’ve found
[Chorus]

Between you and me… It’s better than it seems

No lowballs, I know what I got in this thing
C C/G C C/G
I was gonna take it through the auto-wash

But it needs some new weather-stripping

But if you take it off my hands, I’ll fill the tank for free
[Chorus]
F
Does anybody wanna buy a half-ton van?
C C/G C C/G
You’d be the envy of nearly every traveling band

Just keep her away from snow, salt, and sand
G C
Does anybody want to buy a half ton van?
[Outro]
F G
Resale value’s fair
C
Make me an offer
