Hot Rod Race - Arkie Shibley/Betty Hutton[00:00:00]

Now me and my wife[00:00:14]

And my brother joe[00:00:16]

Took off in my ford[00:00:17]

From san pedro[00:00:18]

We hadn't much gas[00:00:19]

The tires were low[00:00:20]

But the doggone ford[00:00:21]

Could really go[00:00:22]

Now[00:00:24]

Along about the middle[00:00:25]

Of the night[00:00:26]

We were rippin' along[00:00:27]

Like white folks might[00:00:28]

When a mercury behind[00:00:29]

He blinked his lights[00:00:30]

And he honked his horn[00:00:31]

And he flew outside[00:00:32]

We had twin pipes[00:00:34]

And a columbia butt[00:00:35]

You people may think[00:00:37]

That I'm in a rut[00:00:37]

But to you folks[00:00:39]

Who don't dig the jive[00:00:39]

That's two carburetors[00:00:40]

And an overdrive[00:00:41]

We made grease spots[00:00:43]

Outta many good town[00:00:44]

And left the cops heads[00:00:46]

Spinnin' round and round[00:00:47]

They wouldn't chase[00:00:48]

They'd run and hide[00:00:49]

But me and that mercury[00:00:50]

Stayed side by side[00:00:51]

Now we were ford men[00:00:54]

And we likely knew[00:00:55]

That we would race[00:00:56]

Until somethin' blew[00:00:57]

And we[00:00:58]

Thought it over[00:00:59]

Now[00:01:00]

Wouldn't you[00:01:00]

I looked down[00:01:03]

At my lovely bride[00:01:03]

Her face was blue[00:01:04]

I thought she'd died[00:01:05]

We left streaks through towns[00:01:06]

About forty feet wide[00:01:07]

But me and that mercury[00:01:08]

Stayed side by side[00:01:09]

My brother was pale[00:01:24]

He said he was sick[00:01:25]

He said he was just[00:01:26]

A nervous wreck[00:01:27]

But why should I worry[00:01:28]

For what the heck[00:01:29]

Me and that mercury[00:01:30]

Was still[00:01:31]

Neck and neck[00:01:32]

Now on through the deserts[00:01:33]

We did glide[00:01:35]

A flyin' low[00:01:36]

And a flyin' wide[00:01:37]

Me an' that mercury[00:01:38]

Was a takin' a ride[00:01:39]

And we stayed exactly[00:01:40]

Side by side[00:01:41]

I looked in my mirror[00:01:56]

And I saw somethin' comin'[00:01:57]

I thought it was a plane[00:01:58]

By the way it was a runnin'[00:01:59]

It was a hummin' along[00:02:00]

At a terrible pace[00:02:01]

And I knew right then[00:02:02]

It was the end of the race[00:02:03]

When it flew by us[00:02:05]

I turned the other way[00:02:06]

The guy in the mercury[00:02:07]

Had nothin' to say[00:02:08]

For it was a kid[00:02:09]

In a hopped up model a[00:02:10]
