C
I got a sixty-nine Chevy with a 396
F
Fuelie heads and a Hurst on the floor
Dm
She's waiting tonight down in the parking lot
F
Outside the Seven-Eleven store
C
Me and my partner Sonny built her straight out of scratch
F
And he rides with me from town to town
Dm
We only run for the money got no strings attached
F
We shut `em up and then we shut `em down
C
Tonight tonight the strip's just right
F
I'm gonna blow `em off in my first heat
Dm
Summer's here and the time is right
F C
For racin' in the street
C
We take all the action we can meet
F
And we cover all the northeast states
Dm
When the strip shuts down we run `em in the street
F
From the fire roads to the interstate
C
Now Some guys they just give up living
F
And start dying little by little piece by piece
Dm
Some guys come home from work and wash up
F
And go racin' in the street
C
Tonight tonight the strip's just right
F
I'm gonna blow `em all out of their seats
Dm
Calling out around the world
F
We're going racin' in the street
C
He met her on the strip three years ago
F
In a Camaro with this dude from L.A.
Dm F
He blew that Camaro off his back and he drove that little girl away
C
But now there's wrinkles around his baby's eyes
F
And she cries herself to sleep at night
Dm
When he comes home the house is dark
F
She says Baby make it all right
C
She sits on the porch of her daddy's house
F
But all her pretty dreams are torn
Dm
She stares out alone into the night
F
With the eyes of one who hates for just being born
C
For all the shut-down strangers and hot rod angels
F
Rumbling through this promised land
Dm
Tonight my baby and me we're gonna ride to the sea
F
And wash these sins off our hands
C
Tonight tonight the highway's bright
F
Out of our way mister you best keep
Dm
Cause summer's here and the time is right
F C Bb C Bb F C
For racin' in the street
