5. "no money down" - chuck berry
As I was motorvatin' Back in town I saw a Cadillac sign Sayin' "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 you Ford And I'll put you in a car That'll eat up the road Just tell me what you want And then sign on that line And I'll have it brought down to you In a hour's time"
I'm gonna 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 wide 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 gotta talk to my baby When I'm ridin' alone"
Yes I'm gonna get that car And I'm gonna 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 burnin' aviation fuel No matter what that 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
