Had the first verse of this one simmering in my head for several days but never sat down to work on it till today. Thanks for the help on this one, Dawggy. Just a simple bluesy one.

Broke Down Buick Blues
(c) 2002 Lyrics by Bobbie Gallup ASCAP

Been walkin' these streets for mo' than a week
Rain's seepin' through the holes in my shoes
A man can't get far without any car
An' I got them broke down Buick blues
Yeah, them broke down Buick blues

My lady done gone and left me alone
Never even made no excuse
Now I'm missing my honey, my car and my money
An' I got them broke down Buick blues
Yeah, them broke down Buick blues

Ain't collected no pay since she went away
The boss man done tole me I'm through
Can't get to work on time, down to my last dime
An' I got them broke down Buick blues
Yeah, them broke down Buick blues

BRIDGE:
I used to cruise this town
With the ragtop down
Now all I got's this ol' car that don't run
She took my black Cadillac
An' she never looked back
Guess my cruisin' days are done

Cause Detroit City ain't got no pity
For a man with no wheels it's true
No sympathy for the likes of me
With them broke down Buick blues
Yeah, I got them broke down Buick blues

They'll tell you success in the music biz is all about who you know...but the truth is...it's about who knows you.
