[00:14.99]Well you heard the story of
[00:16.05]The hot rod race that fatal day
[00:17.37]When a ford and a mercury
[00:18.31]Went out to play
[00:19.74]Well this is the inside story
[00:20.64]And I'm here to say
[00:21.81]I was the kid that was
[00:22.74]Driving that model A
[00:24.98]It's got a Lincoln motor
[00:25.75]And it's really souped up
[00:26.58]And that model a body
[00:27.53]Makes it look like a pup
[00:28.56]It's got twelve cylinders
[00:29.21]Uses them all
[00:30.13]With an overdrive
[00:30.66]That just won't stall
[00:33.42]It's got a four barrel carb
[00:34.38]Dual exhaust 4 11 gears
[00:35.89]You can really get lost
[00:36.81]It's got safety tubes
[00:37.48]And I'm not scared
[00:38.14]The brakes are good
[00:39.3]And the tires are fair
[00:42.07]We left San Pedro late one night
[00:43.16]The moon and the stars was shining bright
[00:45.05]Everything went fine up the grapevine hill
[00:46.77]We was passing cars like
[00:48.44]They was standing still
[00:57.66]All of a sudden like a flick of an eye
[00:59.16]A Cadillac sedan had passed us by
[01:01.61]The remark was made
[01:02.22]There's the car for me
[01:03.09]By then the tail lights
[01:03.91]Were all you could see
[01:06.31]Now the fellas ribbed me for being behind
[01:07.55]So I started to make that Lincoln unwind
[01:10.11]I took my foot off the gas and man alive
[01:11.83]I shoved it on down into overdrive
[01:15.1]Well I wound it up to a hundred and ten
[01:16.65]Twist the speedometer off at the end
[01:18.05]I had my foot feed clear to the floor
[01:20.07]Said that's all there is
[01:20.9]And there ain't no more
[01:23.13]Went around a corner and I passed a truck
[01:24.53]I whispered a prayer just for luck
[01:26.25]Fenders was clicking the guardrail posts
[01:27.69]The guys beside me were white as a ghost
[01:31.07]I guess they thought I'd lost my sense
[01:32.6]The telephone poles looked like a picket fence
[01:34.72]They said slow down I see spots
[01:36.380005]The lines on the road just look like dots
[01:39.58]Smoke was rolling out the back
[01:40.979996]When I started to gain on that Cadillac
[01:42.75]I knew I could catch him
[01:43.7]And hoped I could pass
[01:44.54]But when I did I'd be short on gas
[01:54.44]Went around a corner
[01:55.06]With the tires in the side
[01:56.03]You could feel the tension
[01:56.85]Man what a ride
[01:58.33]I said hold on
[01:58.95]I've got a license to fly
[01:59.92]And the Cadillac pulled over
[02:00.64]And let me go by
[02:03.07]And then all of the sudden
[02:03.96]A rod started knocking
[02:04.55]When down in the dips
[02:05.41]She started to rocking
[02:06.72]I look in my mirror
[02:07.49]And a red light was blinking
[02:09.06]Cops was after my hot rod Lincoln
[02:18.92]Well they arrested me and put me in jail
[02:20.43]I called my pop to go my bail
[02:22.7]He said son you're gonna drive me to drinking
[02:24.97]If you don't quit driving that hot rod Lincoln
