Lyrics My Starter Won't Start - Townes Van Zandt

My Starter Won't Start

My starter won’t start this mornin'
And I’m about to lose my mind
My starter won’t start this mornin'
And I’m about to lose my mind
I wanna go and see my little baby
But my machine is all outa time
I got water in my gas tank
And my battery’s all run down
I got water in my gas tank
And my battery’s all run down
If I don’t see my little baby
I’m gonn' leave this lonesome town
Well blow your harmonica son…
My starter won’t start this mornin'
And my car won’t do a thing
My starter won’t start this mornin'
No my car won’t do a thing
I must begot some kind of bad disconnection
Somewhere in my piston ring
