E A B7

My pappy said son your going to drive me to drinking 
If you don't stop drivin' that hot rod Lincoln

intro

Have you heard the store of the hot rod race 
where Fords and Lincolns was settin the pace ?
That story is true I'm here to say,
I was drivin that model A

Its got a Lincoln motor and its really souped up.
That model A body makes it look like a pup.
It's got 8 cylinders and uses 'em all
Got overdrive just won't stall

With a 4 barrel carb and duel exhaust 
With 411 gears you can really get lost.
Got safety tubes, but I ain't scared
The breaks are good the tires fair

Pulled out of San Pedro late one night
and the moon and the stars were shining bright.
We were driving up Grapevine hill
passin car like they were standing still

break

All of a sudden in the blink of an eye
a Cadillac sedan passed us by. I said
Boy's that's a mark for me
by then the tail lights was all you could see 

Know the fellas ribbed for being behind
so I thought I's make the Lincoln unwind
took my foot off the gas and man alive
I shoved it on down into overdrive.

Wound up to hundred an ten
My speedometer said I'd 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
Them telephone poles look like a picket fence
They said, slow down I see spots
The lines on the road just looked like dots.

Took a corner side swiped a truck.
Crossed my fingers just for luck
My fender was clickin' the guard rail post
the guy beside me was white as a ghost

Smoke was comin from out of the back
when I started to gain on that Cadillac.
knew I could catch him, I thought I could pass.
Don't ya know by then we'd be low on gas

Had flames comin' from out of the side.
Feel  the tension, man, what a ride.
I said, Look out boys I got a license to fly
And that caddy pulled over and let us by.

know all of a sudden she started to knockin
and down in the dips she started to rockin.
I look in the mirror, a red light was blinkin
the cops was after my hot rod Lincoln

They arrested me and they put me in jail
and I called my pappy to throw my bail
And he said son your going to drive me to drinkin
if you don't stop drivin' that hot rod Lincoln
