| [00:12.92] |
Well I left Kentucky back in '49 and |
| [00:15.20] |
Went to Detroit workin' on the assembly line |
| [00:17.70] |
The first year they had me puttin' wheels on Cadillacs |
| [00:22.41] |
Every day I'd watch them beauties roll by |
| [00:24.91] |
And sometimes I'd hang my head and cry |
| [00:27.25] |
Cuz I always wanted me one that was long and black |
| [00:31.91] |
One day I devised myself a plan |
| [00:34.26] |
That should be the envy of most any man |
| [00:36.92] |
I'd sneak it outta there in a lunchbox in my hand |
| [00:41.43] |
Now gettin' caught meant gettin' fired |
| [00:43.82] |
But I figured I'd have it all by the time I retired |
| [00:46.33] |
I'd have me a car worth at least 100 grand |
| [00:50.78] |
I'd get it one piece at a time |
| [00:53.17] |
And it wouldn't cost me a dime |
| [00:55.52] |
You'll know it's me when I come through your town |
| [01:00.15] |
I'm gonna ride around in style |
| [01:02.45] |
I'm gonna drive everybody wild |
| [01:04.99] |
Cuz I'll have the only one there is around |
| [01:09.79] |
So the very next day when I punched in |
| [01:12.09] |
With my big lunchbox and with help from my friend |
| [01:14.68] |
I left that day with a lunchbox full of gears |
| [01:18.98] |
I've never considered myself a thief |
| [01:21.42] |
But GM wouldn't miss just one little piece |
| [01:23.68] |
Especially if I strung it out over several years |
| [01:28.38] |
The first day I got me a fuel pump |
| [01:30.68] |
And the next day I got me an engine and a trunk |
| [01:33.08] |
Then I got me a transmission and all the chrome |
| [01:37.52] |
The little things I could get in my big lunchbox |
| [01:39.97] |
Like nuts and bolts and all 4 shocks |
| [01:42.51] |
But the big stuff we snuck out my buddy's mobile home |
| [01:47.10] |
Now up to now my plan went alright |
| [01:49.10] |
'Til we tried to put it all together one night |
| [01:51.69] |
And that's when we noticed that somethin' was definitly wrong |
| [01:56.20] |
The transmission was a '53 and |
| [01:58.40] |
The motor turned out to be a '73 and |
| [02:01.02] |
When we tried to put in the bolts all the holes were gone |
| [02:05.47] |
So we drilled it out so that it would fit and |
| [02:07.74] |
With a little help from an adapter kit |
| [02:10.24] |
We had that engine runnin' just like a song |
| [02:14.89] |
Now the headlights, they was another sight |
| [02:16.79] |
We had 2 on the left and 1 on the right |
| [02:19.50] |
But when we pulled out the switch all 3 of 'em come on |
| [02:24.09] |
The back end looked kinda funny too |
| [02:26.14] |
But we put it together and when we got through |
| [02:28.65] |
Well that's when we noticed that we only had 1 tail fin |
| [02:33.18] |
About that time my wife walked out and |
| [02:35.49] |
I could see in her eyes that she had her doubts |
| [02:37.89] |
But she opened the door and said |
| [02:39.53] |
'Honey, take me for a spin' |
| [02:42.82] |
So we drove uptown just to get the tags and |
| [02:44.62] |
I headed her right on down main drag |
| [02:47.82] |
I could hear everybody laughin' for blocks around |
| [02:52.12] |
But up there at the court house they didn't laugh |
| [02:54.76] |
Cuz to type it up it took the whole staff and |
| [02:56.95] |
When they got through the title weighed 60 pounds |
| [03:01.33] |
I'd got it one piece at a time |
| [03:03.74] |
And it didn't cost me a dime |
| [03:06.10] |
You'll know it's me when I come through your town |
| [03:10.45] |
I'm gonna ride around in style |
| [03:13.00] |
I'm gonna drive everybody wild |
| [03:15.42] |
Cuz I'll have the only one there is around |
| [03:21.87] |
Uh, yeah Red Rider this is the Cotton Mouth in the |
| [03:24.67] |
Psycho Billy Cadillac, come on |
| [03:28.56] |
Huh? |
| [03:30.87] |
Uh, this is the Cotton Mouth and neg-a-tory on the |
| [03:32.76] |
Cost of this moe-sheen there Red Rider |
| [03:35.40] |
You might say I went right up to the factory and |
| [03:37.46] |
Picked it up, it's cheaper that way |
| [03:40.75] |
Uh, what model is it? |
| [03:42.81] |
Well it's a 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59 |
| [03:49.61] |
Automobile |
| [03:52.13] |
It's a 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70 |
