Lyrics

I don't look all that ragged for all the time it's been
I'm weakened underneath me where my frame is rusted thin
And this year's state inspection I just barely passed
Won't you drive me 'cross the country, boy
This year could be my last

I'm a tailfin road locomotive from the days of cheap gasoline
For sale on the side of the road going nowhere
A rusty old american dream

I rolled off the line in detroit back in 1958
Spent twodays on the showroom, that's all I had to wait
I've been good to all who owned me, so have no fear;
Come on, boy, put your money down and get me out of here!

I'm a tailfin road locomotive from the days of cheap gasoline
For sale on the side of the road going nowhere
A rusty old american dream

This car needs a young man to own him
One who will polish the chrome
I will give you the rest of my lifetime
But don't let me die here alone
Just jump me some juice to my batt'ry
Give that old starter a spin
Hear me whir, sputter, backfire to the carberator
And roar into life once again

I'm a tailfin road locomotive you can polish my chrome so clean
We can fly off into the sunset together
A rusty old american dream, still runnin'
A rusty old american dream
