  1. Ah este é o famoso...

    Robert Johnson imortalizou este carro em seu Terraplane Blues:

    And I feel so lonesome
    you hear me when I moan
    When I feel so lonesome
    you hear me when I moan
    Who been drivin my terraplane
    for you since I've been gone
    I'd said I flashed your lights mama
    your horn won't even blow
    I even flash my lights mama
    this horn won't even blow
    Got a short in this connection
    hoo-well, babe, its way down below
    I'm on hist your hood momma
    I'm bound to check your oil
    I'm on hist your hood momma mmmm
    I'm bound to check your oil
    I got a woman that I'm lovin
    way down in Arkansas
    Now you know the coils ain't even buzzin
    little generator won't get the spark
    Motors in a bad condition
    you gotta have these batteries charged
    But I'm cryin please
    please don't do me wrong
    Who been drivin my terraplane now for
    you-hoo since I've been gone
    Mr Highwayman
    please don't block the road
    Puh hee hee
    ple-hease don't block the road
    Casue she's restrin (?) a cold one hindred
    and I'm booked I gotta go
    Mmm mmm
    mmmm mmmm mmm
    You ooo oooo oooo
    you hear me weep and moan
    Who been drivin my terraplane
    for you since I've been gone
    I'm on get deep down in this connection
    keep on tanglin with your wires
    I'm on get deep down in this connection
    hoo-well keep on tanglin with your wires
    And when I mash down your little starter
    then your spark plug will give me a fire.

    Foi dos primeiros blues a traçar paralelo entre um carro e uma mulher.
    Ele diz que alguém andou dirigindo seu Terraplane enquanto esteve fora (possivelmente preso) numa alusão em que a mulher dele não era lá muito fiel heheheh

    Adoro este blues e nunca tinha procurado sequer uma foto do carro.
