Blood on the Saddle - Car Mechanic's Blues Lyrics

Switch the ignition, there's fuel in your lines
Your radio sounds sweet and your headlight will shine
Your dashboard's so pretty and your seat feels so soft
The engine won't turn over, your timing's off

Well, since you won't start, I think you need a charge
Hoping maybe the generator won't get the spark
Like a car mechanic, I'll check your oil
Feel the radiator, see if it'll boil

I wanna start your engine and ride
I wanna start your engine and ride
Take me for a drive
I wanna start your engine and ride

I wanna pull down your top and check under the hood
The latch won't undo it, ain't working so good
Get down in your engine and play with all your wires
Stroke your starter and make your spark plugs fire

There's a short in this connection and it's way down below
I'm trying to fix it, but how I don't know
The battery looks new, but the amps are so slow
I step on the gas, but baby you won't go

I wanna start your engine and ride
I wanna start your engine and ride
Take me for a drive
I wanna start your engine and ride
