Studebaker

I left my home in Monterey
 Just another no prospects man
 Who'd rather work in the foundries
 Than put fishes in a can
 I'm 25 but I have not traveled far
 And I spend all my money on this misbegotten car
 And I'm up against it all like a leaf against the wind
 And the Studebaker keeps on breakin' down again
 This Studebaker keeps on breakin' down again
 I thought I'd go to Fresno to see my friend
 This damn Studebaker keeps on breaking down again
 ♪
 I was speedin' south on 99
 When the manifold started smokin'
 I ran her off the shoulder
 And now the axle's broken
 Made a sound that cracked my heart in half
 With less than half a-, half pint of vodka left
 I'm up against it all like a leaf against the wind
 And the Studebaker keeps on breakin' down again
