Lyrics for No Money Down

As I was motivatin' 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 your Ford And I'll put you in a car Then eat up the road Just tell me what you want And then sign 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 shortwave 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 the cost I want railroad air horns And a military spark And I want a five-year guarantee On everything I got I want ten dollar deductible I want 20 dollar notes I want 30 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
