Lyrics
1) I: HAVE YOU SEEN MY SHADE TREE MECHANIC
I WANT HIM TO FIX MY CAR :I
HE'S LONG TALL AND SHORT
HE SMOKES A BIG CIGAR
2) I: HE WEAR'S DESIGNER JEANS
OILY FROM HEAD TO TOE :I
AND WHERE HE LIVES
I SWEAR NOBODY KNOWS
(LEAD)
3) I: HIS TOOLS ARE PLYERS AND SCREW DRIVERS
AND A PIECE OF BAILIN WIRE :I
HE CAN FIX YOUR BROKEN ENGINE
AND MEND YOUR OLD SPARE TIRE
(LEAD)
1) I: HAVE YOU SEEN MY SHADE TREE MECHANIC
I WANT HIM TO FIX MY CAR :I
