Old Beat Up Car

This old beat-up car
It ain't going nowhere
But if it could go somewhere
I'd take it for a ride
I'd take it way down south
Somewhere south of Texas
South beneath the border
Señorita by my side

Now when they look at me
They think that I'm a wild man
Some say I'm a sad man
But if they knew where I'd been
I've been way down south to Vietnam
Fighting for the big man
Eating from a tin can
With some good friends by my side

There came a time I met a woman
We rolled the die, gave it a chance
I thought for sure she was salvation
She was for sure when we danced
When we danced

This old beat-up car
I think it was a Cadillac
An old-time '50s Cadillac
The kind with wings that fly
And if this car could fly
I'd fly it way down south
Somewhere south of Texas
Señorita by my side

I say I'd fly it way down south with
A señorita
Named Margarita
By my side (side)
By my side (side)
