[Kzyxtalk] [MCN-Discussion]- Seeking a ridge-runner car for my neighbor; oh, and also announcing /Memo of the Air: Good Night Radio on KNYO and KMEC tonight!/

[David Gurney]

1,000 Car - by the Bottle Rockets

A thousand dollar car, it ain't worth nothin'
A thousand dollar car, it ain't worth shit
Might as well take your thousand dollars
And set fire to it
A thousand dollar car ain't worth a dime
You lose your thousand dollars every time
Oh why did I ever buy a thousand dollar car

A thousand dollar car is gonna let you down
More than it's ever gonna get you around
Replace your gaskets and paint over your rust
You still end up with something that you'll never trust
A thousand dollar car, its life was through
'Bout 50,000 miles 'fore it got to you
Oh why did I ever buy a thousand dollar car

A thousand dollar car ain't gonna roll
'Til you throw at least another thousand in the hole
Sink your money in it, and there you are
The owner of a two thousand dollar thousand dollar car

If you only got a thousand dollars
You outta just buy a good guitar
Learn how to play and it'll take you farther
Than any old thousand dollar car
If a thousand dollar car was truly worth a damn
Then why would anybody ever spend ten grand
Oh why did I ever buy a thousand dollar car
