The Lyrics

Chorus

Ping woes, damn Chevrolet
Thumbin' now to get me back home

I looked at the engine and what did I see
Thumbin' now to get me back home
I don't have a clue, it's all greek to me
Thumbin' now to get me back home

Chorus

The windshield's cracked and plates expired
Thumbin' now to get me back home
I need more duct tape and bailing wire
Thumbin' now to get me back home

Chorus

It sometimes runs and sometimes sits
Thumbin' now to get me back home
I'd take five bucks fot that piece of sh*t
Thumbin' now to get me back home

Stuart, Claude, and Ingeborg, thank you all very much for the votes and kind comments. And since I had no takers at $5, I'm dropping the price to $4.
