John Prine - Automobile lyrics

February morning, my car won't start today

I turned the key at 8:03 and the battery passed away

Inside a' my automobile

I want my automobile

I want my automobile

I want to drive it all around this world

Bride's gettin' married in the Springtime

Widow's gettin married in the Fall

I got married in high school

Or I wouldn't of got married at all

I'd be drivin' my automobile

Be drivin' my automobile

Be drivin' my automobile

I wanna drive it all around this world

Everybody said to the new groom

Groom, what ya gonna be

I said I'm gonna be a symphony

Just as soon as I find a key

To my automobile

I want my automobile

I want my automobile

All around this world

Spoken:

Let's take a ride

Columbus sailed the ocean

Moses parted the sea

Dolores left me yesterday

Well, I think she took the key

To my automobile

I want my automobile

I want my automobile

Wanna drive it all around this world

Now I held a little bitty baby

I held a woman all night

Whenever I get the hiccups

I hold my breath 'til my head gets light

Then I drive my automobile

Yeah I drive my automobile

I drive my automobile

I'm want to drive it all around this world

February morning, my car won't start today

Yeah, I turned the key at 8:03

And the battery passed away

Inside a' my automobile

I'm drivin' my automobile

Wanna my automobile

Wanna drive it all around this world

Go on.

Spoken:

It is a beautiful day for a ride

Hey, get your head down I can't see anything

Someone give me a cigarette

I don't want to take my hands off the wheel

We ought to take the air filter off this sucker.

So we can see what it will really do.

Uh oh, it looks to me like a HOS-PITAL Zone

Everybody get quiet. Shhhhhhhh.

Don't wake the dead up.

We're almost out. Hang on. Uh Oh here we go.

Well, you can just hold it until we get to the next town.
