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
