Chicken

They drove the hottest hot rods that were ever raced in years
You could hear 'em burnin' rubber as they shifted through the gears
They must have lost their senses in their trail of smoke and flame
'Cos you had to be a maniac to play that crazy game

Chicken
Chicken
The winner of the game would holler "chicken"

The laughter of the couples could be heard abovе the roar
As they headеd t'ward each other with their pedals to the floor
The one that held it showed that he was not afraid to die
And the one that turned aside would hear the winning couples cry

Chicken
Chicken
The winner of the game would holler "chicken"

They knew they'd all be losers if they ever had a tie
But the closer they could make a scene the louder they would cry
The kicks were always greatest when they had the closest shave
And the voices coming back were like an echo from the grave

Chicken
Chicken
The winner of the game would holler "chicken"
And then one night it happened 'cos the devil had his way
He was clickin' off the seconds that were left for them to play
There might have been a winner but they had no way to tell
For the couples all were dead and there was no one left to yell

Chicken
Chicken
The winner of the game would holler "chicken"

 

"Shut Down"

Tach it up, tach it up
Buddy gonna shut you down

It happened on the strip where the road is wide
(Oooo rev it up now)
Two cool shorts standin' side by side
(Oooo rev it up now)
Yeah, my fuel injected Stingray and a four-thirteen
(Oooo rev it up now)
Revvin' up our engines and it sounds real mean
(Oooo rev it up now)

Tach it up, tach it up, tach it up
Buddy gonna shut you down

Declinin' numbers at an even rate
(Oooo movin' out now)
At the count of one we both accelerate
(Oooo movin' out now)
My Stingray is light the slicks are startin' to spin
(Oooo movin' out now)
But the four-thirteen's really diggin' in
(Oooo movin' out now)

Gotta be cool now power shift here we go

Superstock Dodge is windin' out in low
But my fuel injected Stingray's really startin' to go
To get the traction I'm ridin' the clutch
My pressure plate's burnin' that machine's too much

Pedal's to the floor hear the dual quads drink
(Oooo pump it up now)
And now the four-thirteen's lead is startin' to shrink
(Oooo pump it up now)
He's hot with ram induction but it's understood
(Oooo pump it up now)
I got a fuel injected engine sittin' under my hood
(Oooo pump it up now)

Shut it off, shut it off buddy now I shut you down
Shut it off, shut it off buddy now I shut you down
Shut it off, shut it off buddy now I shut you down
Shut it off, shut it off buddy now I shut you down
Shut it off, shut it off buddy now I shut you down

 

Remember Frankie Avalon, Annette Funichello and Beach Blanket movies?
Wide Track

Red hot and cool with a big chrome tach
Got a 421 in front and lots of torque in back
When it talks to the power shift I really got some action
For I've never been beaten in my new wide track

Wide track, my big wide track
Wide track, my big wide track
Wide track, my big wide track
Wide track, my big wide track

Big hot clutch she's ready for some action
She never breaks loose with posi-traction
My dual carbs and filters they don't need more gas
There's nothing in the road that I can't pass

Wide track, my big wide track
Wide track, my big wide track
Wide track, my big wide track
Wide track, my big wide track

Wide track, my big wide track
Wide track, my big wide track
Wide track, my big wide track
Wide track, my big wide track

I got the reputation the fastest shift in town
Everyone tries but I always shut 'em down
Red hot and cool with a big chrome tach
And I've never been beaten in my new wide track

Wide track, my big wide track
Wide track, my big wide track
Wide track, my big wide track
Wide track, my big wide track

 

Four on the Floor .....and a few more.....

I Got a four on the floor between the bucket seats
Yeah, I never miss a shift but my baby weeps
She never gets a huggin' as I cruise down the street
And this is what she says to me

I said four on the floor, no more on the huggin'
I'm gonna leave you now
Yeah, four on the floor really makes me sore
I'm gonna leave you now

Four on the floor with a big chrome stick
It turns on the guys but it bugs my chick
And now I gotta sell it and it makes me sick
But this is what she says to me

I said four on the floor, no more on the huggin'
I'm gonna leave you now
Yeah, four on the floor really makes me sore
I'm gonna leave you now

I sold my stick, I couldn't stand her buggin'
I got an automatic just to get some huggin'
There's no more draggin' but guaranteed lovin'
Now this is what she says to me

I said four on the floor, no more will I honey
I'm never gonna leave you now
Well you had your kicks when you had your stick
I'm never gonna leave you now

I sold my stick, I couldn't stand her buggin'
Well, I got an automatic just to get some huggin'
There's no more draggin' but guaranteed lovin'
Now this is what she says to me

I put it into second gear and start to go
And watch all the cars when you're startin' to go
First gear, drop it into second and a two
And watch 'em all run right up your tubes

 

409 and a few more.......

[Intro]
She's real fine, my 409
She's real fine, my 409
My 409

[Verse 1]
Well I saved my pennies and I saved my dimes (giddy up, giddy up 409)
For I knew there would be a time (giddy up, giddy up 409)
When I would buy a brand new 409 (409, 409)

[Chorus]
Giddy up, giddy up, giddy up 409 (giddy up, giddy up 409)
Giddy up 409 (409, 409)
Giddy up 409 (giddy up, giddy up 409)
Giddy up 40...
Nothing can catch her
Nothing can touch my 409 (409 ooooo)

[Instrumental Break]
(giddy up, giddy up oooo)
(giddy up, giddy up oooo)
(giddy up, giddy up oooo)
(giddy up, giddy up)

[Verse 2]
When I take her to the track she really shines (giddy up, giddy up 409)
She always turns in the fastest times (giddy up, giddy up 409)
My four speed, dual quad, Posi-Traction 409 (409, 409, 409, 409)


[Chorus]
Giddy up giddy up giddy up 409 (giddy up giddy up 409)
Giddy up 409 (409, 409)
Giddy up 409 (giddy up giddy up 409)
Giddy up 40...
Nothing can catch her
Nothing can touch my 409 (409, 409, 409, 409)
Giddy up 409 (409, 409, 409, 409)
Giddy up 409 (409, 409, 409, 409)
