Текст песни Val Doonican — Oraffertys Motor Car + аккорды для гитары
Вступление
Capo 2nd fret
[Verse 1]
G C D G
Now Denny O'Rafferty's motor car is the greatest I declare
A D
It's made up of bits and pieces that he picked up here and there
Em Bm C D
The engine must be ages old but it's still got lots of power
G C D G
With a gallon of stout in the petrol tank it does ninety miles an hour.
[Verse 2]
G C D G
Oh, what a wonderful motor car; it's the greatest ever seen
A D
It used to be black as me father's hat, now it's forty shades of green
Em Bm C D
On TV and the radio and in every public bar
G C D G
The burning question of the day is Rafferty's motor car.
[Verse 3]
G C D G
Now two of the wheels are triangular and the third one's off a pram
A D
The fourth is the last remaining wheel from off a Dublin tram
Em Bm C D
The number plate's in Gaelic and the plugs won't even spark
G C D G
And the chassis came off of a tinkers' cart that collapsed in Phoenix Park.
[Verse 4]
G C D G
Now go for a ride in the motor car and you'll end up with the shakes
A D
The road from Cork to Dublin is a veil of pains and aches
Em Bm C D
When traffic lights turn red ahead you'd best jump out the door
G C D G
For the moment that Denny treads on the brakes his foot'll go through the floor.
[Verse 5]
G C D G
Oh, what a wonderful motor car; it's the greatest ever seen
A D
It used to be black as me father's hat, now it's forty shades of green
Em Bm C D
On TV and the radio and in every public bar
G C D G A
The burning question of the day is Rafferty's motor car.
[Verse 6]
A D E A
Now if you could see the upholstery your eyes would start to pop
B E
It's nothing but empty beer crates with a load of sacks on top
F#m C#m D E
The windscreen's gone to Lord knows where and there's mothballs in the horn
A D E A
And I reckon he'd only get half a quid if he took it to the pawn.
[Verse 7]
A D E A
Now Denny was driving around last week when the engine did the splits
B E
It went up in smoke and nearly blew O'Connell Street in bits
F#m C#m D E
They searched around for Denny and found he'd landed up by heck
A D E A
Away up on top of the GPO with his L plates round his neck.
[Verse 8]
A D E A
Oh, what a wonderful motor car; it's the greatest ever seen
B E
It used to be black as me father's hat, now it's forty shades of green
F#m C#m D E
On TV and the radio and in every public bar
A D E A
