I see spots! B7 E The lines on the road just look like dots" E Took a corner, sideswiped a truck A7 Crossed my fingers just for luck E My fenders was clicking the guardrail posts B7 E The guy beside me was white as a ghost E A7 E B7 E Smoke was coming from out of the back A7 When I started to gain on that Cadillac E Knew I could catch him, I thought I could pass B7 E Don't you know by then we'd be low on gas E We had flames coming from out of the side A7 Feel the tension, man, what a ride! E I said, "Look out, boys, I've got a license to fly" B7 E And that Caddy pulled over and let us by E Now all of a sudden she started to knocking A7 And down in the dips she started to rocking E I looked in my mirror; a red light was blinking B7 E The cops was after my hot rod Lincoln E They arrested me and they put me in jail A7 And called my pappy to throw my bail E And he said, "Son, you're gonna' drive me to drinking B7 E If you don't stop driving that hot, rod, Lincoln!"
