Version 4
I saw her when I was 17 down at Hansen's Chevrolet
I made up my mind to get her any how, any way
So that whole summer I worked until I had enough
And I went, and I put my money down for a Deluxe
We drove her that whole summer, where the waters fell to due, south
We drove her when the men came and shut that power down
We rode her down to Bond Street to the unemployment lines
We rode her on Main Street, sheet cars and vacancy signs
Oh Chevrolet Deluxe, I bought her with all the accessories
But Mister, I can't keep my payments up
Oh Chevrolet Deluxe, I lost my heart, ah she took my guts
Solo acoustic demo, probably recorded at Telegraph Hill Studio in Holmdel, NJ around September or October 1979.
Thanks Jake (ol'catfishinthelake at BTX and Greasy Lake) for the lyrics help.
