(Take a Beetle) to the Badlands Lyrics

Take a Beetle to the Badlands,
take a Ford to Florida,
take a Caddy to Calico,
take a Plymouth to Plymouth.
Take a Chevy through the Delta,
take a coup to Guadalupe,
take a Toyota to Dakota,
take a hearse to Heaven.

To my people on the East Coast,
in the land I love the most,
go ahead you deserve to boast...
talkin' 'bout mmmmmm.......

To my people on the West Coast,
many a good host,
I offer this toast
in the name of........(love, really)

Mama said, "Get your flat feet off the bed!"
There were four in the bed and the little one said
"Move over, I'm crowded."
So they all rolled over and one fell off,
now three in the bed and the little one said,
"Move over, I'm crowded."
(...and so on...)

Take a Beetle to the Badlands,
take a Ford to Florida,
take a Caddy to Calico,
take a Buick to Newark.
Take a Gremlin to the Kremlin,
take a pickup to Pennsyltucky,
take a Pinto to Providence,
take a Harley to Charley.

Standing on the state line
of the dominant paradigm.
Goodbye Palookavillei, Catalina's on my mind.
Wack a bully at a fruit-stand,
hey buddy I'm a traveling man.
Got a whole lot of shakin' to do and a-movin' across this land
Take a Beetle to the Badlands,
take a Ford to Florida,
take a Caddy to Calico,
take a Saturn to Saturn.
Take a limo to Louisville,
saddle up the Coup DeVille,
take a Toyota to Dakota,
take a (your car here)

Mama said...(what do you think she said?!)

Take a Nissan to Nashville,
saddle up the Coup DeVille,
take a rocket to Woonsocket,
take a scooter to Shibuya.
Take a Beetle to the Badlands,
take a ford to Florida,
take a Toyota to Dakota,
take a Hearse to Heaven.
