A thousand dollar car, it ain't worth nothin' A thousand dollar car, it ain't worth sh** Might as well take your thousand dollars And set fire to it A thousand dollar car ain't worth a dime You lose your thousand dollars every time Oh why did I ever buy a thousand dollar car A thousand dollar car is gonna let you down More than it's ever gonna get you around Replace your gaskets and paint over your rust You still end up with something that you'll never trust A thousand dollar car, its life was through 'Bout 50,000 miles 'fore it got to you
Oh why did I ever buy a thousand dollar car A thousand dollar car ain't gonna roll 'Til you throw at least another thousand in the hole Sink your money in it, and there you are The owner of a two thousand dollar thousand dollar car If you only got a thousand dollars You outta just buy a good guitar Learn how to play and it'll take you farther Than any old thousand dollar car If a thousand dollar car was truly worth a damn Then why would anybody ever spend ten grand Oh why did I ever buy a thousand dollar car
