Studebaker Lyrics

I left my home in Monterey just another low prospects man
I'd rather work in the foundry than put fishes in a can
I'm thirty-five and I haven't traveled far and I've spent all my money on this misbegotten car
I'm up against it all like a leaf against the wind and my Studebaker keeps on breaking down again
My Studebaker keeps on breaking down again
I thought I'd go to Fresno just to see my friend but my d*** Studebaker keeps on breaking down again

I was speeding south on ninety-nine when the manifold started smokin'
I ran her off the shoulder and now the axle's broken
It made a sound that cracked my heart in half and with only half a half pint of vodka left
I'm up against it all like a leaf against the wind and this Studebaker keeps on breaking down again
My Studebaker keeps on breaking down again
I thought I'd go to Fresno just to see my friend but my d*** Studebaker keeps on breaking down again

My Studebaker keeps on breaking down again
My Studebaker keeps on breaking down again
I thought I'd go to Fresno just to see my friend but my d*** Studebaker keeps on breaking down again
