I (G)left my home in Monterey, just a(D)nother low prospects man. 

I'd (Am)rather work in the foundry than put (Em)fishes in a can.(C) 

I'm thirty-five and I (G)haven't traveled far,(D) 

And I've (Am)spent all my money on this misbegotten car.(Em) (C)  

I'm (Bm)up against it all like a (C)leaf against the (Am)wind, 

and this (G)Studebaker (Em)keeps on breaking (C)down again, 

My (Am)Stude(G)baker (D)keeps on (C)breaking (G)down again. 

I thought I'd go to (G7)Fresno just to (C)see my friend, (A7) 

But my (D)damn (G)Stude(C)baker (G)keeps on (D)breaking down a(G)gain.

I was (G)speeding south on ninety-nine when the (D)manifold started smokin'. 

I (Am)ran her off the shoulder, and (Em)now the axle's (C)broken. 

It made a sound that (G)cracked my heart in (D)half 

and with (Am)only half a half pint of vodka (Em)left, (C)  

I'm (Bm)up against it all like a (C)leaf against the (Am)wind, 

and this (G)Studebaker (Em)keeps on breaking (C)down again, 

My (Am)Stude(G)baker (D)keeps on (C)breaking (G)down again. 

I thought I'd go to (G7)Fresno just to (C)see my friend, (A7) 

But this (D)damn (G)Stude(C)baker (G)keeps on (D)breaking down a(G)gain.  

My (G)Studebaker (Em)keeps on breakin' (C)down again. 

My (Am)Stude(G)baker (D)keeps on (C)breaking (G)down again.
