a break in the schedule

sufficient coolant leak

well we thought we were doing the right thing

now you cannot be too picky

in Cheyenne on a Sunday

then up walked the mechanic

with the perpendicular teeth

perpendicular teeth, oh yeah



by the 17th hour

they pulled us up in the bay

and funky tooth started diggin'

down under the hood

after clearing a path to the water pump

and taking a four hour break

by hour 27 we were all good

then we sailed from Little America, oh yeah



only two days later

on the way down to Deep Elem

we broke down in Oklahoma

where a wind come behind the rain

we got towed to a town called Perry

where a woman's car took priority

she had a kidney in a cooler

so two nights we had to stay

so she could deliver the kidney, oh yeah



when you go down to Deep Elem

down to the Gypsy Tea Room

tell 'em I'm broke down in Perry

and I'll try to make it back soon

oh sweet mama

your daddy got them Deep Elem blues

oh sweet mama

your daddy got them Deep Elem blues



now I know I will be paying

on the concept after it's through

unrealistic, maybe

but there's something I gots to do

I need a big ass bus with a satellite dish

a double-decker double-wide what I wish

I dream open eyed

that this be true

my double-decker double-wide, oh yeah



it's gonna have two icemakers

in both refrigerators

a silent but violent generator

to run the subwoofers and the disco ball

the escalator up to the dance hall

on the second floor with a giant sky light

driving range and jacuzzi just right

for skinny dipping right after the show

at 80 miles an hour

it's worth all the dou
