Noirsville Tune of the Week

Ry Cooder - Crazy About an Automobile




Crazy About an Automobile

[Intro: Ry Cooder, Bobby King]

Man, I'm gonna tell you my story

Go on and tell about it, go on and tell about it more

Just what I've been doing

What you've been doing, Ry?

Well, you know I used to be particular about the womens that I picked

Uh huh

Yeah, they used to be tender, lean and tall, that's all

But the way things has been going, I'll take 'em knock-kneed and bow-legged

What?

I'll even take 'em bald!

Ah no, man

I'll tell you why

Please, tell me why!


[Chorus: Ry Cooder]

Every woman I know is crazy 'bout an automobile

Every woman I know is crazy 'bout an automobile

And here I am standing with nothing but rubber heels




Hey-hey, every woman I know, crazy 'bout an automobile

Oh, every woman I know, crazy 'bout an automobile

And here I am standing with nothing but rubber heels




[Verse 1: Ry Cooder]

Now look it here!

They say, walking women home is a thing of the past

Women wants to ride and ride around in class

Some like Cadillacs, boys, some like Fords

And some like anything as long as it rolls





[Chorus: Ry Cooder]

Crazy 'bout an automobile, alright

And here I am standing with nothing but rubber heels



[Guitar Solo]



[Chorus: Ry Cooder]

Well, every woman I know is crazy 'bout an automobile

Every woman I know, crazy 'bout an automobile

And here I am standing with nothing but rubber heels





[Verse 2: Ry Cooder]

One more thing I wanna tell you

Said, riding and loving just can't be beat

You and your woman in your own front seat

Now, she can play with your keys, shift your gears

Turn on your radio just loud enough to hear

Now, she can turn up your heat and flip on your fan

And then you start rolling just as fast as you can





[Chorus: Ry Cooder]

Crazy 'bout an automobile, alright

And just here I am standing with nothing but rubber heels




Every woman I know, crazy 'bout an automobile

Here I am standing with nothing but rubber heels



[Outro: Ry Cooder]

Man, when I get some money I just got to get me some kind of automobile

You don't seem like the women in this town just don't pay no attention to ya 'less you're driving, man

Hey, look at that big, fine Buick over there

Oh, I like that one

Hey now, looks like somebody left the keys in it

Oh, let's take a ride

Ooh, nothing but rubber heels

Noirsville Tune of the Week

Noir Claymation 


"My Baby Just Cares For Me"
Nina Simone
 

My baby don't care for shows
My baby don't care for clothes
My baby just cares for me
My baby don't care for cars and races
My baby don't care for high-tone places

Liz Taylor is not his style
And even Lana Turner's smile
Is somethin' he can't see
My baby don't care who knows
My baby just cares for me

Baby, my baby don't care for shows
And he don't even care for clothes
He cares for me
My baby don't care
For cars and races
Baby don't care for
He don't care for high-tone places

Liz Taylor is not his style
And even Liberace's smile
Is something he can't see
Is something he can't see
I wonder what's wrong with baby
My baby just cares for
My baby just cares for
My baby just cares for me
