We
D
drove
north from New Orleans
in a 55 Bel -Air
G
D
Music on the bench,
G
D
seat expectation in the air
There's room for a man to wear his hat
in this church of red and cream
G
D
And we are pilgrims of purpose,
driving in this dream
And is that a fifty -five, man?
G
D
I used to drive a fifty -five
What's she got under the hood, man?
G
D
G
D
G
D
She makes me feel alive
G
D
Live oaks, draped with Spanish moss
G
D
Like rags of shoals and ball gowns
G
D
Shade the shame -faced dowagers
G
D
along the river road
And on the bluffs at Vicksburg,
G
D
the big guns still guard the river
G
D
Men sing the barges
G
D
as they haul their heavy loads
Is that a fifty -five, man?
G
D
I used to drive a fifty -five
G

What's she got un der the hood, man?
G

She makes me feel alive

Outside the closed -down undertakers

to Lincolnhurst's standing
Rusting and appealing

The church where Sonny Boy lies buried,
burned down to the ground
G

The crucifix of rusty nails and ashes

there
G
D
There's no panther in the cane break,
no devil at the crossroads,
G
D
but here's a fifty -seven
Cadillac and it's tearin' down the road.
It's Bird Breath and his buddies,
G
D
they're comin' from Chicago.
G
D
They got a fifth of whiskey,
they got a hundred miles to go.
They are barreling from the west side
D
G
Is that a .55?
D

Man, I used to drive a .55

Boy, she's got an other hood, man,

G
D
Oh, the young people are left here
G
D
for the steel mills and assembly lines
G
D
For the marshalling yards
and the killing floor
G
D
Many years ago
But the cities, they are dying
G
D
And the industries are wasted
G
D
But there sure is no good reason
G
D
To come back here anymore
G
D
Is that a fifty -five man
G

Who used to drive a fifty -five?
What's she got under the hood,
G

She makes me feel alive
