Detroit Made Songtext

von John Hiatt

I got me a deuce and a quarter, babe
She will ride you right
Pick you up about half past nine
We can ride all night

I came up from the country, baby
City's where I stay
Got me a deuce and a quarter, babe
It's all I got to say

She's a Detroit made
Deuce and a quarter, babe
She's a 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

She's a Detroit made
Deuce and a quarter, babe
She's a Detroit made
Deuce and a quarter, babe

Now when I first got out of high school
I drove an old farm truck
All the girls they walked right by me
Didn't even say good luck

Now I ride my 225
They all wanna be my friend
I'll pick you up later tonight now, baby
You can wait till then

She's a Detroit made
Deuce and a quarter, babe
She's a Detroit made
Deuce and a quarter, babe

She's a Detroit made
Deuce and a quarter, babe
She's a Detroit made
Deuce and a quarter, babe

Now just about every cat I know
Wants him a Coupe De Ville
I pay half the price and get twice as nice
And they're still trying to pay that bill

Now I can't say everything's okay
Riding in my car
But I got me a deuce and a quarter baby
She goes like a shooting star

She's a Detroit made
Deuce and a quarter, babe
She's a Detroit made
Deuce and a quarter, babe

She's a Detroit made
Deuce and a quarter, babe
She's a Detroit made
Deuce and a quarter, babe
