One of my all time favorite little songs is "Mercedes Benz" by the late Great Janis Joplin. (

Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz?
My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends.
Worked hard all my lifetime, no help from my friends,
So Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz?
Oh Lord, won't you buy me a color TV?
Dialing For Dollars is trying to find me.
I wait for delivery each day until three,
So oh Lord, won't you buy me a color TV?
Oh Lord, won't you buy me a night on the town?
I'm counting on you, Lord, please don't let me down.
Prove that you love me and buy the next round,
Oh Lord, won't you buy me a night on the town?
Everybody!
Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz?
My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends,
Worked hard all my lifetime, no help from my friends,
So oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz?
That's it!
@30pics4jackiesdiamond I hadn't heard of this early work by N. Kidman but yup it was used in the series. It just is strange and fun. @miata2u Thanks, here is the youtube link ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qev-i9-VKlY) hope you like it.
@deborah63 Thank you very much for the fav, Janis Joplin was a real character gone much too soon.
@cjphoto Thank you, I did think about you when I asked my husband if I could barrow his toy Porsche for the shot, toys and all.
@gardencat Thank you. They have gotten so fancy - I like the old ones, there is alate 1950's one that see parked downtown now and then.
