Well I went down to the local arena
Asked to see the manager man
He came from his office, said “Son can I help you?”
Looked at him and said “Yes you can”

[Chorus]
Hey, I wanna drive the Zamboni
Hey, I wanna drive the Zamboni
Yes I do

Now e’er since I was young
It’s been my dream
That I might drive the Zamboni machine
Id get that Ice just slick as could be
And all the kids would look up to me

[Chorus]

Now the manager said “Son, I know it looks keen,
But that right there’s one expensive machine
And I got Smokey who’s been driving for years”
About that time I broke down in tears

Cuz I wanna drive the Zamboni
Hey I wanna drive the Zamboni

[Chorus]
