F G Dm F F G Dm F
I leFft my home in Monterey, just anoGther low prospects man
I'd rDmather work in a foundry than put fiDmshes in a can
I'm tFhirty-five and I hFaven't traveled fGar
And I've sDmpent all my money on this misbegotten cDmar F
I'm Emup against it all like a leFaf against the wind
And this StFudebaker Dmkeeps on breaking dFown again
My SDmtudebFaker Gkeeps on bFreaking dFown again
I tC7hought I'd go to Fresno just to seFe my friend
But my dGamn SFtudebFaker kFeeps on bGreaking down aFgain
G Dm F F G Dm F
I was spFeeding south on ninety-nine when the mGanifold started smokin'
I rDman her off the shoulder, and nDmow the axle's Fbroken
It made a sound that cFracked my heart in halGf
And with oDmnly half a half pint of vodka lDmeft F
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
My StFudebaker kDmeeps on breaking doFwn again
My SDmtudebFaker kGeeps on bFreaking dFown again
I thC7ought I'd go to Fresno just to see Fmy friend
But my dGamn StFudebFaker keFeps on bGreaking down agFain
F G Dm F F G Dm F
