Hot Rod Race - Red Foley[00:00:00]
Now me and my wife and my brother joe[00:00:06]
Took off in my ford from san pedro[00:00:09]
We hadn't much gasn' the tires was low[00:00:12]
But the doggone ford could really go[00:00:15]
Now along about the middle of the night[00:00:18]
We were rippin' along like white folks might[00:00:20]
When a mercury behind he blinked his lights[00:00:23]
And he honked his horn and he flew outside[00:00:26]
We had twin pipes and a columbia butt[00:00:41]
You people may think that i'm in a rut[00:00:44]
But to you folks who don't dig the jive[00:00:46]
That's two carburetors and an overdrive[00:00:49]
We made grease spots outta many good town[00:00:52]
And left the cops heads spinnin' round 'n' round[00:00:55]
They wouldn't chase they'd run and hide[00:00:58]
But me and that mercury stayed side by side[00:01:01]
I looked down at my bride[00:01:15]
Her face was blue i thought she'd died like is blue[00:01:16]
We left streaks through towns about forty feet wide[00:01:21]
But me and that mercury stayed side by side[00:01:24]
My brother was pale he said he was sick[00:01:27]
He said he was just a nervous wreck[00:01:30]
But why should i worry for what the heck[00:01:33]
Me and that mercury was still neck and neck[00:01:35]
Now on through the deserts we did glide[00:01:50]
A flyin' low and a flyin' wide[00:01:53]
Me an' that mercury was a takin' a ride[00:01:56]
And we stayed exactly side by side[00:01:58]
Looked in my mirror and i saw somethin' comin'[00:02:01]
I thought it was a plane by the way it was a runnin'[00:02:04]
A hummin' along at a terrible pace[00:02:07]
And i knew right then it was the end of the race[00:02:10]
When it flew by us i turned the other way[00:02:12]
The guy in the mercury had nothin' to say[00:02:15]
And i cloud she was a sweet bruk[00:02:18]
Was kid in a hopped up model a[00:02:21]
