Lyrics

Looka here, Daddy, I want to tell you, please get out of my sight I'm playin' quits now, right from this very night You've had your day, don't sit around and frown You've been a good old wagon, Daddy, but you done broke down Now, you'd better go the blacksmith shop and get yourself overhauled There's nothing about you to make a good woman fall Nobody wants a baby when a real man can be found You've been a good old wagon, honey, but you done broke down When the sun is shinin', it's time to make hay Automobiles operate, you can't make that wagon pay When you were in your prime, you love to run around You've been a good old wagon, honey, but you done broke down There's no need to cry and make a big show This man has taught me more about lovin' than you will ever know He is the king of lovin', this man deserves a crown He is a good old wagon, Daddy, and he ain't broke down
