Mark & Emmylou - Red Staggerwing

"If I was a Maserati
A red 300s
I'd ride around to your house, baby
Give you a driving test.
If I was a Mustang racer
White with stripes of blue
You could ride me,baby
Whenever you wanted to."

Found her in a barn in Tennessee
I paid five bucks for my Bucket T

 

[Aluminny69]

Every lovely spot, near or far
You can reach them, too, in your car
Or you might be there now if you own a Jag already

The saddest classic I can think of....

I remember reading the story in the Hartford Courant the day the music died.

On Feb. 3, 1959, rock stars Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and J.P. Richardson were killed in a plane crash along with 21-year-old pilot Roger Peterson. This incident became known as “The Day The Music Died,” after Don McLean coined it in his 1971 song, “American Pie.”

I really don’t think anyone else will post “See the USA in your Chevrolet.” I remember hearing Dinah Shore singing the full version of this song on her tv show.

455 Rocket
Written by Gillian Welch and David Rawlings, Kathy Mattea had a hit with it.

"In my 455 Rocket
The kind the police drive
Couldn't hardly wait just to take my turn
She was made for the straightaway
She grew up hatin' Chevrolets
She's a rocket, she was made to burn"
