Driver's Seat - Sniff 'n the tears - 1978

A road trip from Texas to the east coast, to the music: Driver's Seat, by Sniff 'n the tears, 1978. Lyrics:

Doing alright
A little jiving on a Saturday night
And come what may
Gonna dance the day away

Jenny Was Sweet, She'd Always Smile For The People She'd Meet
On trouble and strife
She Had Another Way Of Looking Alive

News is blue (the news is blue)
Has its own way to get to you
What can I do (what can I do)
When I remember my time with you

Pick up your feet
Got to move to the trick of the beat
There is no elite
Just take your place in the driver's seat

Driver's seat, oohoo, driver's seat, yeah

Doing alright
A little jiving on a Saturday night
And come what may
Gonna dance the day away

Driver's seat, oohoo, driver's seat, yeah

Jenny was sweet
There is no lead
Pick up your feet, pick up, pick up
Pick up your feet, gonna dance the day away

Driver's seat, oohoo, driver's seat, yeah
Driver's seat, oohoo, driver's seat, yeah
Driver's seat...

This really grew on me.....having watched this now several times I must say this is one very special vid. Not sure exactly why, but the whole theme of the drive, the girl, the underlying soundtrack, the editing....it all meshes superbly and really tells a cool, happy story. One of these little gems you just fall over on YouTube!! You're a very lucky guy, BTW. PS-Your politics are refreshing, too.

Best vid I've seen in a long time. I think I'll will watch it again.

This is too cool!! The only thing that could make it better would be a muscle car or classic car LOL. Well Done!! Great song choice!!

[dajdooley]

Great job all around. The video is great and the girl is awesome. It looks as if you had a very good time making this fun little gem. I have always loved this tune, and now I can add a very nice face to it. Jenny was, and is, sweet. Peace out...

@jymmyjaymes grew up in Northampton....small world. Played soccer at the Catty Y and went to the punk shows at the W Catty playground

I remember my feelings at the time of this song blaring on the radio waves. Catasaqua High, lifting weights at the Catty "Y" after school. My good friends with me, Chris, Joe, Gary you know who you are, what we were, how we loved being in that time passage, our future dreams being molded...

If that's her boyfriend, it would be like when Drew Barrymore married Tom Green.

Great vid.....she's hot & the guy looks like the lead singer of Madness!
