There can't be many people on the planet that don't recognise this Janis Joplin original, recorded three days before her demise. There have been many covers - all with the original lyrics - so here is a motor mechanic's version with new words....

Oh! Lord , won't you buy me a torque wrench today
My friends will come runnin' when you do what I pray
My knuckles are bleedin' my life blood a-way
So Lord won't you buy me a torque wrench today.

Next verse....?

Oh! Lord , won't you buy me a splitter today
Me ball joints need changin', they got too much play
I should have greased 'em long before this day,
So Lord won't you buy me a splitter today

Oh Lord won't you buy me a T4 (Testbook version 4.Computer Diagnostic System) today?
My friends all drive Rovers, and I so need to play.
I've searched high and low, and even Ebay.
So Lord won't you buy me a T4 today?
