detroit made

Singer: john hiatt

i got me a deuce and a quarter

babe

she will ride you right

pick you up 'bout half past nine

we can ride all night

came up from the country

baby

city's where i stay

got me a deuce and a quarter

babe

that's all i got to say

she's detroit made

deuce and a quarter

babe

she's detroit made

deuce and a quarter

babe

big block

she'll do all the work

so we can ride in style

leather on those bucket seats

carpet

double pile

chrome that takes the moonlight on

sea to shining sea

you can hear those glass pipes rumble

to the statue of liberty

now

when i first got outta high school

i drove an old farm truck

all the girls they walk right by me

didn't even say good luck

now

i ride in my 225

they all wanna be my friend

i'll pick you up later tonight now

babe

if you can wait 'til then

just about every cat i know

wants him a coupe de ville

i pay half the price and get twice as nice

and they still tryin' to pay that bill

now

i can't say everythings ok
