As recorded by Chuck Berry

Intro
Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]Cm[/ch
Dear Dad, don't get mad, what I'm asking for
ch]F[/ch
Is by the next semester can I get another car?
ch]Cm[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
This one here is sickning on a wide dual road
[ch]G[/ch] N.C.
I might as well be walking as to drive this old Ford
ch]Cm[/ch
Almost every time I try to go and pass a truck
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
If I ain't going downhill, Dad, I'm, out of luck
ch]Cm[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
And even if I get by it's still a rugged risk
[ch]G[/ch] N.C.
The way this old Ford keep a hitting and a miss
N.C.
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]Cm[/ch
Last week when I was driving on my way to school
ch]F[/ch
I almost got a ticket about a freeway traffic rule
ch]Cm[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
It's now a violation driving under forty-five
[ch]G[/ch] N.C.
And if I push to fifty this here Ford will nosedive
ch]Cm[/ch
Dad, I'm in great danger out here trying to drive
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
The way this Ford wiggles when I'm approaching forty-five
ch]Cm[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
I have to nurse it along like a little stubborn pup
[ch]G[/ch] N.C.
And cars whizzing by me, Dad, look like I'm backing up
N.C.
Verse 3→ Phiên khúc
ch]Cm[/ch
She just don't have the appetite for gas somehow
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And Dad, I got four carburetors hooked up on it now
ch]Cm[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
I tried to hook another to see if it'd do a little good
[ch]G[/ch] N.C.
But ain't no place to put it unless I perforate the hood
ch]Cm[/ch
So Dad, send the money, see what I can see
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Try to find a Cadillac, a sixty-two or three
ch]Cm[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
Just something that won't worry us to keep it on the road
ch]G[/ch] N.C. [ch]Cm[/ch
Sincerely, your beloved son, Henry Junior Ford
