Well, I left Kentucky back in forty nine
- an' went to Detroit workin' on a 'sembly line
The first year they had me puttin' wheels on Cadillacs
Every day I'd watch them beauties roll by
- and sometimes I'd hang my head and cry
'Cause I always wanted me one that was long and black - CIRCLE
LEFT
I'd get it one piece at a time - and it wouldn't cost me a
dime
LEFT
ALLEMANDE come back and PROMENADE
I'm gonna ride
around in style - I'm gonna drive everybody wild
'Cause I'll have the only one there is around
(Figure):
Well now the HEAD two COUPLES PROMENADE - HALFWAY around with pretty little Maid
Come down the middle and do a full SQUARE THRU
All the way around to the outside two RIGHT AND LEFT THRU and turn you do
VEER LEFT and the COUPLES CIRCULATE - HALF TAG - SCOOTBACK across you go
SWING your Girl like Cotton Eyed Joe - take her by the hand and PROMENADE her home
I'm gonna ride around in style - I'm gonna drive everybody
wild
'Cause I'll have the only one there is around
Now, up to now my plan went all right
- 'til we tried to put it all together one night
And that's when we noticed that something was definitely wrong
The transmission was a fifty three
- and the motor turned out to be a seventy three
And when we tried to put in the bolts all the holes were gone - CIRCLE LEFT
I'd get it one
piece at a time - and it wouldn't cost me a dime
LEFT
ALLEMANDE come back and PROMENADE
I'm gonna ride
around in style - I'm gonna drive everybody wild
'Cause I'll have the only one there is around
The back end looked kinda funny too
- but we put it together and when we got through
Well, that's when we noticed that we only had one tail-fin
About that time my wife walked out
- and I could see in her eyes that she had her doubts
But she opened the door and said "Honey, take me for a spin"

ORIGINAL LYRICS:
Well, I
left Kentucky back in forty nine - an' went to Detroit workin' on a 'sembly
line
The first year they had me puttin' wheels on Cadillacs
Every
day I'd watch them beauties roll by - and sometimes I'd hang my head and cry
'Cause I always wanted me one that was long and black
I'd get
it one piece at a time And it wouldn't cost me a dime
You'll know it's me when I come through your town
I'm gonna ride around in style - I'm gonna drive everybody wild
'Cause I'll have the only one there is around
Now, up
to now my plan went all right - 'til we tried to put it all together one night
And that's when we noticed that something was definitely wrong
The
transmission was a fifty three - and the motor turned out to be a seventy three
And when we tried to put in the bolts all the holes were gone
The
back end looked kinda funny too - but we put it together and when we got
through
Well, that's when we noticed that we only had one tail-fin
About that time my wife walked out - and I could see in her eyes that she had
her doubts
But she opened the door and said "Honey, take me for a spin"
Ugh! Yeah, RED RYDER - this is the COTTON MOUTH in the PSYCHO-BILLY
CADILLAC Come on
Huh, This is the COTTON MOUTH - And negatory on the cost of this mow-chine
there RED RYDER
You might say I went right up to the factory - And picked it up, it's cheaper
that way
Ugh!, what model is it?
Well,
It's a '49, '50, '51, '52, '53, '54, '55, '56, '57, '58' 59' automobile
It's a '60, '61, '62, '63, '64, '65, '66, '67, '68, '69, '70 automobile.
