ramblin' jimmie dolan - hot rod race lyrics

Loading...

now me and my wife and my brother joe
took off in my ford from san pedro
we hadn’t much gas and the tyres were low
but that doggone ford could really go

now long about the middle of the night
we were ripping along like plain folks might
when a mercury behind me blinked his lights
and he honked his h+rn and he flew outside

we had twin pipes and the columbia b+tts
you folks might think that i’m in a rut
but to you folks who don’t dig the jive
that’s two carburetors and an overdrive

we made grease sparks out of many good towns
and left thе cops’ heads spinnin’ round and round
they wouldn’t chase, thеy‘d run and hide
but me and that mercury stayed side by side

now we were ford men and we likely knew
that we would race until something blew
and we thought it over
now wouldn’t you?

i looked down at my lovely bride
her face was blue, i thought she’d died
we left streaks through town about forty feet wide
but me and that mercury stayed side by side
my brother was pale, he said he was sick
he said he was just a nervous wreck
but why should i worry, for what the heck
me and that mercury were still neck and neck

now on through the deserts we did glide
and a+flyin’ low and a+flyin’ wide
me and that mercury was a+takin’ a ride
and we stayed exactly side by side

then i looked in the mirror and i saw somethin’ comin’
and i thought it was a plane by the way it was a+runnin’
hummin’ along at a terrible pace
and i knew right then it was the end of the race

when it flew by us i turned the other way
and the guy in the mercury had nothin’ to say
for it was a kid in a hopped up model “a”
yeah, just a hopped up model “a”
