F G Dm F F G Dm F
F G
I left my home in Monterey, just another low prospects man
Dm Dm
I'd rather work in a foundry than put fishes in a can
F F G
I'm thirty-five and I haven't traveled far
Dm Dm F
And I've spent all my money on this misbegotten car
Em F
I'm up against it all like a leaf against the wind
F Dm F
And this Studebaker keeps on breaking down again
Dm F G F F
My Studebaker keeps on breaking down again
C7 F
I thought I'd go to Fresno just to see my friend
G F F F G F
But my damn Studebaker keeps on breaking down again
G Dm F F G Dm F
F G
I was speeding south on ninety-nine when the manifold started smokin'
Dm Dm F
I ran her off the shoulder, and now the axle's broken
F G
It made a sound that cracked my heart in half
Dm Dm F
And with only half a half pint of vodka left
I'm up against it all like a leaf against the wind
And this Studebaker keeps on breaking down again
My Studebaker keeps on breaking down away
I thought I'd go to Fresno just to see my friend
But my damn Studebaker keeps on breaking down again
F G Dm F F G Dm F
F Dm F
My Studebaker keeps on breaking down again
Dm F G F F
My Studebaker keeps on breaking down again
C7 F
I thought I'd go to Fresno just to see my friend
G F F F G F
But my damn Studebaker keeps on breaking down again
F G Dm F F G Dm F
