C
Now me
G
D
wife and my brother Joe
Took off in my Ford from San Pedro
We hadn't much gas and
the tires was low
D
But the dog gone Ford couldn't really go
G
Now along about the middle of the night
We were ripping along like
white folks might
When the Mercury behind,
he blinked his lights,
D
he honked his horn,
G
and he flew out of sight.
We had twin pots in the Columbia,
but you people may think that I'm in a rut.
But to you folks who don't think to jive,
D
that's two carburetors and an overdrive.
G
We made grease spots out of many a good town,
and left the cops' heads spinning
round and round.
They wouldn't chase,
D
they'd run and hide,
but me and that Mercury stayed
Now we were Ford men,
and we likely knew that we would race
until something blew,
D
and we thought it over and I wouldn't you
G
I look down at my lovely bride
her face was blue
I thought she had died
D
we left streaks through towns
about 40 feet wide but me and that
G
C
Mercury stayed side -by -side
G
D
G
my brother was pale
he said he was sick
he said it was just a nervous wreck
but
Why should I worry for
Me and that murky was
G
still neck and neck
Now on through the desert we did glide
A -flyin' low and a -flyin' wide
Me and that murky was takin' a ride
D
G
And we stayed exactly side to side
C

D
G
I looked in my mirror and I saw somethin'
comin'
I thought it was a plane by
the way it was a -runnin'
It was a -hummin' along
at a terrible pace
D
And I knew right then it was
G
the end of the race
When it flew by us I turned the other way
The guy in the Mercury had nothin' to say
For it was a kid in a hopped
D
G
