Classified Lyrics – C.W. McCall
Singer: C.W. McCall
Title: Classified
I’s thumbin’ through the want ads in the Shelby County Tribune when this classified advertis#ment caught my eye. It said, “Take imme-di-ate delivery on this ’57 Chevrolet half-ton pickup truck. Will sell or swap for a hide-a-bed and thirty-five bucks. Call One-four-oh, ring two, and ask for Bob.”
Well, I called Bob up on the telephone, he says, “Hello, this is Bob speakin’.” I says “This here the Bob got the pickup truck for sale?” He says, “Yeah.” I says, “Where are ya?” He says, “Fourteen east on County 12, turn right on the one-lane gravel road, you can park in the yard, beware of the dog, wipe your feet off, knock three times, and bring your billfold.”
