Judge that towin’ sign wasn’t there before
They put it up so they could tow me.
Now, that’s really low.
I said, “Now, we goin to court!”
They put up two more.
Why they had to go and do like that way for.

When you park your car way down in New Orleans
You better take a picture of the whole dang scene.
And, don’t you forget to put the time stamp on.
You might just come out to find your car is gone.

My old junk heap ain’t that pretty
And she ain’t that slick.
But I paid for that ride.
I didn’t pull no tricks.
Now that I finally got the title that says it’s really been bought,
I got to buy it back again from the towin’ lot.

Judge that towin’ sign wasn’t there before
They put it up so they could tow me.
Now, that’s really low.
I said, “Now, we goin to court!”
They put up two more.
Why they had to go and do like that way for.

When they put up that sign they put it up so high
They had to either climb a ladder or drop down from the sky.
Why they had to put it out of sight like that?
I couldn’t even see it through my cowboy hat.

Now, don’t you laugh at my vehicle.
Don’t you say nothing mean.
She’s a little crumpled up but she’s a fine machine.
Why they need all the money on my credit card
Just to drive my car out of that towin’ yard.

Judge that towin’ sign wasn’t there before
They put it up so they could tow me.
Now, that’s really low.
I said, “Now, we goin to court!”
They put up two more.
Why they had to go and do like that way for.
