Chauffeur's Blues Songtext

von Townes van Zandt

You're lookin' happy, Baby, drivin' around in your brand new automobile.
You're lookin' happy, Baby, drivin' around in your brand new automobile.
You know, I seen you, Baby, I seen your handsome driver at the wheel.

I don't mean to cause no trouble; Baby can I drive sometime?
She says, "Your chauffeur's a good chauffeur, Daddy,
No, but he ain't like mine, Like mine."

C'mon on and get me. Mama, let's go and have some fun.
I just wanna see Mama with that new car on.
Everything would be all right 'long about the break of dawn.

I see you drivin' around, Mama, in your brand new automobile. (2x)
You're lookin' happy, Baby, with your handsome driver at the wheel.
