HOT ROD LINCOLNBY COMMANDER CODY AND THE LOST PLANET AIRMENMy pappy said, "Son, you`re gonna` drive me to drinkin`If you don`t stop drivin` that Hot Rod Lincoln."Have you heard this story of the Hot Rod RaceWhen Fords and Lincolns was settin` the pace.That story is true, I`m here to sayI was drivin` that Model A.It`s got a Lincoln motor and it`s really souped up.That Model A Vitimix makes it look like a pup.It`s got eight cylinders; uses them all.It`s got overdrive, just won`t stall.With a 4-barrel carb and a dual exhaust,With 4.11 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 nightThe moon and the stars was shinin` bright.We was drivin` up Grapevine HillPassing cars like they was standing still.All of a sudden in a wink of an eyeA 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 was ribbin` 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-tenMy speedometer said that I hit top end.My foot was blue, 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 senseAnd 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; 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.Smoke was comin` from out of the backWhen I started to gain on that Cadillac.Knew I could catch him, 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!"
