Prompt / Lyrics
I had the worst week with my car, Battery died wasn’t goin far Neighbor gave me a boost, that's that. Turned around and my tire was flat! My engine stalled at every light, I muttered, “Nothin’s goin’ right,” With a swift kick, she began to roar, Drove smoother than it ever did before! Been stranded more than I can tell, My dashboard’s lit up like a bell, Each time I fix it, somethin’ screws, I woke up with the car-gone blues! Locked my keys inside once again. Does this only happen to men? Just when I was ready to walk, Someone helped to get it unlocked. My tire blew on Highway Eight, I sat and thought, “Well, ain’t that great!” A buddy drove by waving, “Hey!” Gave me a lift and saved my day. Been stranded more than I can tell, My dashboard’s lit up like a bell, Each time I fix it, somethin’ screws, I woke up with the car-gone Blues! My car was stolen — I was mad, The cops showed up, it looked real bad, Turns out the thief had robbed a bank, The reward will fill up my tank! “Want to pay for my parking fine? Amazing — I was first in line! Someone tapped me from behind, She said, ‘I got this, I don’t mind!’” Been stranded more than I can tell, My dashboard’s lit up like a bell, Each time I fix it, somethin’ screws, I woke up with the car-gone Blues! Fuel in my car I went to Tim’s. Last two dollars, rolled up the rim. I really can't believe my luck, I won a prize. It was a truck! Been stranded more than I can tell, My dashboard’s lit up like a bell, Each time I fix it, somethin’ screws, I woke up with car-gone blues! Been stranded more than I can tell, My dashboard’s lit up like a bell, Each time I fix it, somethin’ screws, I woke up with the car-gone Blues Each time I fix it, somethin’ screws, I woke up with the car-gone Blues!
