lirik lagu chuck berry – dear dad
dear dad, don’t get mad,
what i’m asking for
is by the next semester
can i get another car ?
this one here is sick’ning
on a wide dual road.
i might as well be walking
as to drive this old ford.
almost everytime i try
to go and p-ss a truck,
if i ain’t goin’ down hill,
dad, i’m, out of luck.
and even if i get by,
it’s still a rugged risk,
the way this old ford
keep a hitting and a miss.
last week when i was driving
on my way to school,
i almost got a ticket
’bout a freeway traffic rule.
it’s now a violation
driving under forty-five,
and if i push to fifty,
this here ford will nosedive.
dad, i’m in great danger
out here trying to drive.
the way this ford wiggles
when i’m approaching forty-five/
i have to nurse it along
like a little stubborn pup,
and cars whizzing by me,
dad, look like i’m backing up.
she just don’t have the appet-te
for gas somehow,
and dad, i got four carburetors
hooked up on it now.
i tried to hook another
to see if i’d do a little good,
but ain’t no place to put it
‘less i perforate the hood.
well dad, send the money,
see what i can see,
try to find a cadillac,
a sixty-two or three.
just something that won’t worry us
to keep it on the road.
sincerely, your beloved son,
henry junior ford
