Song lyrics
The big three killed my baby
no money in my hand again
the big three killed my baby
nobody's coming home again

Their ideas made me want to spit
a hundred dollars goes down the pit
30,000 wheels are rollin'
and my stick shift hands are swollen
everything involved is shady
the big three killed my baby

The big three killed my baby
no money in my hand again
the big three killed my baby
nobody's coming home again

Why dont you take the day off and try to repair
a billion others dont seem to care
better ideas are stuck in the mud
the motors runnin' on tuckers blood
dont let them tell you the future's electric
cause gasolines not measured in metric
30,000 wheels are spinnin'
and oil company faces are grinnin'
now my hands are turnin' red
and i found out my baby is dead

The big three killed my baby
no money in my hand again
the big three killed my baby
nobody's coming home again

Well i've said it now, nothings changed
people are burnin for pocket change
and creative minds are lazy
and the big three killed my baby

And my baby's my common sense
so dont feed me planned obsolescence
yeah my baby's my common sense
so dont feed my planned obsolescence
im about to have another blowout
im about to have another blowout

This song is amazing. I love the White Stripes. And this song is great because its about there only song that takes a stand. A stand against the Car companies, The Big Three. This goes with my favorite line

[lyrics=]"Dont let them tell you the futers electric. Because Gasolines not measured in metric." [/lyrics]

That is great, it says so much in only a few words.

Jack White and his wife are having a baby. I guess because the big three killed his first one.

"People are burnin' for pocket change/and creative minds are lazy..."
Metal-blues! An auto industry put-down.
