Previously-Owned Car for Sale

 

By Elton Camp

 

(This write assumes knowledge of the

TV program “The Dukes of Hazzard.”)

 

This car just simply runs like a dream

That it can fly, it does almost seem

 

It’s owners so smoothly get in and out

The doors never loudly slammed about

 

The car windows are always kept down

It’s the most aired-out car that is around

 

Driving country roads you’ll never hate

It almost makes them seem as if straight

 

Even if it should somehow get a dent or two

Just an hour later, the car looks like new

 

The suspension’s redone, front end realigned

So it should never fail and leave you in a bind

 

It was mainly driven by two fine young men

Often used to transport their elderly uncle in

 

How much they loved the car you can see

Since they named it General Robert E. Lee

 

So if it is a noteworthy automobile you seek

This is one that can be described as “unique”

 

Come on around and buy this vehicle for a song

You can be certain that it won’t last very long
