Lyrics
Written by: MARK BRINE
Chorus:Antiques, tell me what’s an antiqueThat word has got me so confusedHas it got you wonderin’ too(I see it almost everywhere)And I get so all confusedAntiques, tell me what’s an antique
Whenever Mom ‘n Dad take a ride‘N travel thru the countrysideI always read the signs along the wayBut every time I see that oneAntiques, well it leaves me dumb‘Cause I just can’t fig’re what it’s ‘spose t’ say
When I chance t’ see ‘n ice cream signThere ain’t no question in my mind what it means‘N a big ole smile comes shinin’ thruOr the restaurant signs, gas station signsYeah, I know just what is down the lineBut, antiques … what in the heck’s an antique?©2003 Mark Brine Music (BMI)
