One Piece at a Time (Originally Performed by Johnny Cash) [Vocal Version[00:00:00]

Well I left Kentucky back in '49 and[00:00:12]

Went to Detroit workin' on the assembly line[00:00:15]

The first year they had me[00:00:17]

Puttin' wheels on Cadillacs[00:00:18]

Every day I'd watch them beauties roll by[00:00:21]

And sometimes I'd hang my head and cry[00:00:24]

Cuz I always wanted me one[00:00:26]

That was long and black[00:00:28]

One day I devised myself a plan[00:00:31]

That should be the envy of most any man[00:00:33]

I'd sneak it outta there in a lunchbox in my hand[00:00:36]

Now gettin' caught meant gettin' fired[00:00:40]

But I figured I'd have it all by the time I retired[00:00:43]

I'd have me a car worth at least 100 grand[00:00:46]

I'd get it one piece at a time[00:00:50]

And it wouldn't cost me a dime[00:00:52]

You'll know it's me[00:00:55]

When I come through your town[00:00:56]

I'm gonna ride around in style[00:00:59]

I'm gonna drive everybody wild[00:01:02]

Cuz I'll have the only one there is around[00:01:04]

So the very next day when I punched in[00:01:09]

With my big lunchbox and with help from my friend[00:01:11]

I left that day with a lunchbox full of gears[00:01:14]

I've never considered myself a thief[00:01:18]

But GM wouldn't miss just one little piece[00:01:21]

Especially if I strung it out over several years[00:01:24]

The first day I got me a fuel pump[00:01:28]

And the next day I got me an engine and a trunk[00:01:30]

Then I got me a transmission and all the chrome[00:01:33]

The little things I could get in my big lunchbox[00:01:38]

Like nuts and bolts and all 4 shocks[00:01:40]

But the big stuff we snuck out my buddy's mobile home[00:01:42]

Now up to now my plan went alright[00:01:47]

'Til we tried to put it all together one night[00:01:49]

And that's when we noticed[00:01:52]

That somethin' was definitly wrong[00:01:53]

The transmission was a '53 and[00:01:57]

The motor turned out to be a '73 and[00:01:59]

When we tried to put in the bolts all the holes were gone[00:02:02]

So we drilled it out so that it would fit and[00:02:06]

With a little help from an adapter kit[00:02:09]

We had that engine runnin' just like a song[00:02:11]

Now the headlights they was another sight[00:02:16]

We had 2 on the left and 1 on the right[00:02:18]

But when we pulled out the switch all 3 of 'em come on[00:02:21]

The back end looked kinda funny too[00:02:25]

But we put it together and when we got through[00:02:28]

Well that's when we noticed that we only had 1 tail fin[00:02:30]

About that time my wife walked out and[00:02:35]

I could see in her eyes that she had her doubts[00:02:37]

But she opened the door and said[00:02:40]

"Honey take me for a spin"[00:02:41]

So we drove uptown just to get the tags and[00:02:44]

I headed her right on down main drag[00:02:47]

I could hear everybody laughin' for blocks around[00:02:49]

But up there at the court house they didn't laugh[00:02:54]

Cuz to type it up it took the whole staff and[00:02:56]

When they got through the title weighed 60 pounds[00:02:59]

I'd got it one piece at a time[00:03:03]

And it didn't cost me a dime[00:03:06]

You'll know it's me when I come through your town[00:03:08]

I'm gonna ride around in style[00:03:13]

I'm gonna drive everybody wild[00:03:15]

Cuz I'll have the only one there is around[00:03:17]

Uh yeah Red Rider this is the Cotton Mouth in the[00:03:24]

Psycho Billy Cadillac come on[00:03:27]

Huh [00:03:31]

Uh this is the Cotton Mouth and neg-a-tory on the[00:03:33]

Cost of this moe-sheen there Red Rider[00:03:35]

You might say I went right up to the factory and[00:03:38]

Picked it up it's cheaper that way[00:03:40]

Uh what model is it [00:03:44]

Well it's a 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59[00:03:46]

Automobile[00:03:53]
