(ver. 1)
Hal Ketchum

Verse 1

D                            G         A
My daddy bought this car before I was born.
D                      G        A
Sure like the radio, I love the horn.
G                    A               D
I love the great big shiny steerin' wheel,
G          A           D           G A D
Here in my daddy's Oldsmobile. 

Verse 2

                             G         A
Four kids can sure fill up a big back seat.
D                         G             A
They used to stop and get us something sweet.
G                                A       D
Now Mamma says: "Let's pray for one good meal."
G          A           D             G A 
Here in my daddy's Oldsmobile. 

Chorus

G
Mama kisses us goodnight,
D
Daddy reads his paper in the dashboard light.
G
Crushes out his cigarette, says:
D                  A
"Don't cry, honey, we ain't beat yet." 

Verse 3

D                         G       A
Another mornin' and we're up and gone.
D                        G         A
Daddy says there's work in San Antone.
G                            A       D
Two days of ridin', it ain't no big deal,
G          A           D             G A
Here in my daddy's Oldsmobile. 


Instrumental break. 


Chorus

G
Mama kisses us goodnight,
D
Daddy reads his paper in the dashboard light.

"Don't cry, honey, we ain't beat yet."

I love the great big shiny steerin' wheel,
G          A           D           G A D
Here in my daddy's Oldsmobile. 

G          A           D           G A D
Here in my daddy's Oldsmobile.
