CHEVROLET DELUXE

Version 1

I had a wife and kid, and I tried to settle down
I just wanted to live an honest life on the edge of an honest town
But in the end they left me danglin' danglin' in the night
And I went crazy tryin', tryin' to walk that thin line

Oh Chevrolet Deluxe, I bought you with all your accessories
Oh Chevrolet Deluxe, I bought you with all your accessories
But Mister, I can't keep my payments up
I lie awake at night and I wonder if I'm tough enough
To win back the hand of Chevrolet Deluxe


A quiet song, this was a hint of what was to come on the Nebraska album. It is a great example of the American dream, you can get what you want, but you pay back much much more than its worth. And when things appear to be going well, they can quickly turn sour and everything can be lost.

Recorded by Bruce alone in Colt's Neck, 1979. Check also version 2, version 3, version 4, version 5, and version 6.
