MY PAPPY SAID SON
YOU'RE GONNA' DRIVE ME
TO DRINKIN' IF YOU DON'T
STOP DRIVIN' THAT
HOT ROD LINCOLN
4 BAR
BREAK
HAVE YOU HEARD
THE STORY OF THE
HOT ROD RACE
WHEN FORDS
AND LINCOLNS
WAS SETTIN' THE PACE
SAID STORY IS TRUE
I'M HERE TO SAY
I WAS DRIVIN' THAT
MODEL "A"
IT'S GOT A LINCOLN
MOTOR AND IT'S REALLY
SOUPED UP
THAT MODEL "A" BODY
MAKES IT LOOK LIKE
A PUP
IT'S GOT EIGHT CYLINDERS
AND USES THEM ALL
IT'S GOT OVERDRIVE
JUST WON'T STALL
WITH A FOUR BARREL
CARB
AND A DUAL EXHAUST
WITH FOUR ELEVEN
GEARS YOU CAN REALLY
GET LOST
IT'S GOT SAFETY TUBES
BUT I AIN'T SCARED
THE BRAKES ARE GOOD
TIRES FAIR
PULLED OUT OF
SAN PEDRO
LATE ONE NIGHT
THE MOON AND
THE STARS
WAS SHININ' BRIGHT
WE WAS DRIVIN' UP
GRAPEVINE HILL
PASSING CARS
LIKE THEY WAS
STANDING STILL
4 BAR
BREAK
ALL OF A SUDDEN
IN A WINK OF AN EYE
A CADILLAC SEDAN
PASSED US BY
I SAID BOYS
THAT'S A MARK FOR ME
BY THEN THE TAILLIGHT
WAS ALL YOU COULD SEE
NOW THE FELLAS
RIBBED ME
FOR BEIN' BEHIND
SO I THOUGHT I'D MAKE
THE LINCOLN UNWIND
TOOK MY FOOT OFF
THE GAS AND MAN ALIVE
I SHOVED IT ON DOWN
INTO OVERDRIVE
WOUND IT UP
TO A HUNDRED AND TEN
MY SPEEDOMETER SAID
THAT I HIT TOP END
MY FOOT WAS GLUED
LIKE LEAD TO THE FLOOR
THAT'S ALL THERE IS AND
THERE AIN'T NO MORE
NOW THE BOYS
ALL THOUGHT
I'D LOST MY SENSE
AND THEM
TELEPHONE POLES
LOOKED LIKE
A PICKET FENCE
THEY SAID SLOW DOWN
I SEE SPOTS
THE LINES ON THE ROAD
JUST LOOK LIKE DOTS
TOOK A CORNER AND
SIDESWIPED A TRUCK
CROSSED MY FINGERS
JUST FOR LUCK
MY FENDERS WAS
CLICKIN'
THE GUARDRAIL POSTS
THE GUY BESIDE ME
WAS WHITE AS A GHOST
4 BAR
BREAK
SMOKE WAS COMIN'
FROM OUT OF THE BACK
WHEN I STARTED TO GAIN
ON THAT CADILLAC
KNEW I COULD
CATCH 'EM
I THOUGHT I COULD PASS
DON'T YOU KNOW
BY THEN
WE'D BE LOW ON GAS
WE HAD FLAMES COMIN'
FROM OUT OF THE SIDE
FEEL THE TENSION
MAN WHAT A RIDE
I SAID LOOK OUT BOYS
I'VE GOT A LICENSE TO FLY
AND THAT CADDY
PULLED OVER
AND LET US BY
NOW ALL OF A SUDDEN
SHE STARTED
TO KNOCKIN'
AND DOWN IN THE DIPS
SHE STARTED TO ROCKIN'
I LOOKED IN MY MIRROR
A RED LIGHT
WAS BLINKIN'
THE COPS WAS AFTER
MY HOT ROD LINCOLN
THEY ARRESTED ME
AND THEY PUT ME
IN JAIL
AND CALLED MY PAPPY
TO THROW MY BAIL
AND HE SAID SON
YOU'RE GONNA' DRIVE ME
TO DRINKIN'
IF YOU DON'T STOP
DRIVIN' THAT
HOT ROD LINCOLN
