A thousand dollar car it ain't worth nothin'
A thousand dollar car it ain't worth shit
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'll still end up with something that you'll never trust A thousand dollar car's life was through 'Bout fifty thousand miles before it got to you Oh why did I ever buy A thousand dollar car
Bridge
A thousand dollar car ain't gonna roll
Until you put 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
Verse 3
If you only got a thousand dollars You might as well buy a good guitar Learn how to play, it'll get you farther Than any old thousand dollar car If a thousand dollar car was to worth a damn Then why would anybody ever spend ten grand Oh why did I ever buy A thousand dollar car
