B
Well, if you're one of the millions
who own one of them
gas-drinking, piston-clinking, air-polluting,
smoke-belching, four-wheeled buggies
from Detroit City, then pay attention
I'm about to sing your song song

Verse 1
B
Well, I'm not a man appointed judge
E
To bear ill-will and hold a grudge
F#
I said me a few choice words
B
All about that demon automobile
E
A metal box with the polyglass wheel
B
F#
B
The end result to a dream of Henry Ford
F#
Well I've got a car that's mine alone
E
That me and the finance company own
B
F#
A ready-made pile of manufactured grief
B
And if I ain't out of gas in the pouring rain
E
I'm a-changin' a flat in a hurricane
B
F#
B
I once spent three days lost on a cloverleaf
C#
Well it ain't just the smoke and the traffic jam
That makes me the bitter fool I am
But this four-wheel buggy is
F#
A-dollaring me to death
C#
For gas and oils and fluids and grease
And wires and tires and anti freeze
And them accessories
F#
Well honey, that's something else
B
Well you can get a stereo tape and a color TV
E
Get a back-seat bar and reclining seats
B
And just pay once a month,
F#
like you do your rent
B
Well I figured it up and over a period of time
E
This four thousand dollar car of mine
B
F#
Costs fourteen thousand dollars
B
And ninety-nine cents, well now
Chorus 1
F#
E
B
Lord Mr. Ford, I just wish that you could see
What your simple horseless carriage
B
Well it seems your contribution to man
E
To say the least, got a little out of hand
B

Well Lord Mr. Ford what have you done

Verse 2
B
Now the average American father and mother
E
Own one whole car and half another
B
And I bet that half a car is a
F#
Trick to buy, don't you
B
But the thing that amazes me, I guess
E
Is the way we measure a man's success
B
F#
By the kind of automobile
C#
Well now, red light, green light, traffic cop
Right turn, no turn, must turn, stop
Get out the credit card honey,
C#
Well now, all the cars placed end to end
Would reach to the moon and back again
And there'd probably be some
F#
Fool pull out to pass
B
Well now, how I yearn for the good old days
E
Without that carbon monoxide haze
B
F#
A-hanging over the roar of the interstate
B
Well if the Lord that made
the moon and stars
E
Would have meant for me
and you to have cars
F#
B
we were all born with a parking space
Chorus 2
