Asked a girl what she wanted to be
She said baby Can`t you see
I wanna be famous a star of the screen

Baby you can drive my car (see note)
Yes I`m gonna be a star
Baby you can drive my car
And baby I love you

Miscellaneous info:
Note: In the transcription of the chorus, the moving parallel thirds on the 2nd and 3rd strings are the piano part, presented for information and completeness. I don`t mean to suggest that both parts be played by one guitarist (certainly not when it gets to the [35576-]).
