[Intro]
E A B7

[Verse 1]
E
Well, you heard the story of the Hot Rod race?
A
The fatal day when the Ford and the Mercury went out to play
E
Well this is the inside story, I'm here to say
B7 E
I'm the kid that was drivin' that Model A

[Verse 2]
E
I got a Lincoln motor and it's really souped up
A
That Model A body makes it look like a pup
E
It's got 12 cylinders and it uses them all
B7 E
With an overdrive, it just won't stall

[Verse 3]
E
I got a 4 by carb and a dual exhaust
A
With 4.11 gears you can really get lost
E
It's got safety tubes, and I'm not scared
B7 E
The brakes are good, and the tires are fair

[Verse 4]
E
Well, we left San Pedro late one night
A
The moon and stars was shinin' bright
E
Everything went fine up the Grapevine Hill
B7 E
Was passing cars like they was standing still

[Verse 5]
E
Well then all of a sudden like the flick of an eye
A
A Cadillac sedan passed us by
E
A remark was made, "There's a car for me!"
B7 E
By then the taillights was all you could see

[Verse 6]
E
Well, the fellas ribbed me for bein' behind
A
So I started to make that Lincoln unwind
E
I took my foot off the gas and man alive
B7 E
I shoved it down into overdrive

[Verse 7]
