Here's one of mine. It fits several blues tunes. There really was a used car lot in Detroit called Repo Depot.


REPO DEPOT

Well, you've been lying to me, baby,
I can read it in your face.
Gonna get myself a set of wheels
And I'm gonna blow this place.
Yeah I'm going to Repo Depot
Repo Depot's where I'm bound
Where another man's misfortune
Might be your ticket out of town.

Down at Repo Depot
They've got every car that's made
From a 97 Jeep-o
To a Cadillac Escalade.
Yeah, down at Repo Depot
That place of great renown
Where another man's misfortune
Might be your ticket out of town.

Chevrolet Camaro,
Dodge Arrow, Geo Prizm,
They've even got a Yugo,
That product of Communism.
You go down to Repo Depot,
Find the cheapest cars around
Where another man's misfortune
Might be your ticket out of town.


They're warranted for 30 days,
They're guaranteed to start.
I'm gonna leave you, woman,
Gonna repossess my heart
Down at Repo Depot,
Repo Depot's where I'm bound
Where another man's misfortune
Might be your ticket out of town.
