Songtexte Studebaker - Warren Zevon

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

This
