| As I was motivating back in town |
| I saw a Cadillac sign saying 'No Money Down' |
| So I eased on my brakes and I pulled in the drive |
| Gunned my motor twice then I walked inside |
| Dealer came to me said «Trade in your Ford |
| And I’ll put you in a car that’ll eat up the road |
| Just tell me what you want and then sign that line |
| And I’ll have it brought down to you in a hour’s time» |
| I’m going to get me a car |
| And I’ll be headed on down the road |
| Then I won’t have to worry |
| About that broken down, ragged Ford |
| Well Mister I want a yellow convertible four door De Ville |
| With a Continental spare and a wire chrome wheel |
| I want power steering and power brakes |
| I want a powerful motor with a jet off-take |
| I want air condition, I want automatic heat |
| And I want a full Murphy bed in my back seat |
| I want short-wave radio, I want TV and a phone |
| You know I got to talk to my baby when I’m riding alone |
| Yes I’m going to get that car |
| And I’m going to head on down the road |
| Yeah, then I won’t have to worry |
| About that broken down, ragged Ford |
| I want four carburetors and two straight exhausts |
| I’m burning aviation fuel no matter what the cost |
| I want railroad air horns and a military spot |
| And I want a five year guarantee on everything I got |
| I want ten dollar deductible I want twenty dollar notes |
| I want thirty thousand liability that’s all she wrote |
| I got me a car |
| And I’m headed on down the road |
| No money down I don’t have to worry |
| About that broken down, ragged Ford |
