The Great Car Dealer War - Drive-By Truckers

Been drinkin' all night long, got a job to do

Got paid 500 bucks just to light the other few

To pour the gasoline, to strike the match

Leave without being seen, chris blade pontiac

I don’t ask questions, i don’t assume

You’ll do the same if you know what’s good for you

You pay attention, don’t hang around

It’s so exciting when it all comes down

Didn’t kill nobody, didn’t mean no harm

Just making money and having fun

Didn’t kill nobody, but i know the score

I just start the fires in the great car dealer war

Big jim stephens was the chevy giant

Brand new showroom, million dollar inventory

A tall, beautiful mansion at the lake

From the used car lot 3 years before

Things lead to another, and more and more

Hired by the same man, i burned out the night before

Didn’t kill nobody, didn’t mean no harm

In 6 months time, i burned every damn one

Didn’t kill nobody, like i said before

I just start the fires in the great car dealer war

I just start the fires in the great car dealer war

Big jim stephens, he ain’t no more

Gunned down in cold blood

On his brand new showroom floor

Blood on the corvettes, for all to see

On the monte carlo and the brand new iroc-z

No need to investigate, they haven’t still

Someone took the fall, so i’m sure they never will

I don’t ask questions, i don’t assume

I just take a long hard look when i walk into a room

Didn’t kill nobody, didn’t mean no harm

Just making money and having fun

Didn’t kill nobody, like i said before

Just another soldier in the great car dealer war

Didn’t kill nobody, didn’t mean no harm

It ain’t never personal, just a job to be done

Didn’t kill nobody, but i know the score

Done my tour of duty in the great car dealer war
