lament ofan iU-usedcsr I battle up the weary hills, I labour down the grade, . And in the wettest weather through the ’ mud my tyres wade; I fight to keep on going and to keep myself in gear And every other now and then I weep an oily tear. I run with tribulation when I do my daily stuff. My owner keeps on cursing me and the weather treats me rough; 1 shiver and I chatter when my radiator’s cold. And when the darn thing’s boiling hot my rage I cannot hold. The traffic cop insults me and the kids all laugh at me, Because my aching shaking is a funny thing to see; I know my inside’s wearing out I have the motor gout, And he’ll know all about it when he has my inside out. By he I mean my owner, it’s all his fault I guess, He buys the cheapest oil ’cos it costs a little less; But he doesn’t stop to reckon what is happening to me, When he could make my life a happy one by giving me Big Tree! BIG TREE MOTOR OIL
