D5 
Mr. Smith had an Oldsmobile 
G5 
Baby blue with wire wheels 
D5                                           A5 
He took her home the day that she was advertised 
D5 
He said she leaked when it would rain 
G5 
Sounded like an aeroplane 
D5                     A5            D5 
But I knew she was a jewel in disguise 
A5        D5    G5 
She had a 455 Rocket 
 
The biggest block alive 
D5                                      A5 
I couldn't hardly wait just to take my turn 
D5 
She was made for the straight aways 
G5  
She grew up hatin' Chevrolets 
D5                       A5      D5          
She's a rocket, she was made to burn  
 
 
Well whose junkpile piece of Chevelle is this? 
Did you Boys come here to race or just kiss? 
Hmmm   Don't you want to know what I got underneath my hood? 
I know she might sound like she's missing 
But buddy, she could teach you a lesson 
In just a quarter mile, and I'll smoke you good 
 
In my 455 rocket 
The kind the police drive 
I couldn't hardly wait just to take my turn 
She was made for the straight aways 
She grew up hatin' Chevrolets 
She's a rocket,  she was made to burn 
 
I'm telling you and I ain't ashamed 
I cried when that wrecker came 
As we skid I thought I heard angels sing  
We hit the curve and began to sail 
Took out most the safety rail 
Even the cop asked me, "Man what'd you have in that thing?" 
 
I had a 455 rocket 
The very kind you drive 
You oughta watch yourself when you take that turn 
She was made for the straight aways 
She grew up hatin' Chevrolets 
She's a rocket, she was made to burn, burn 
Lord she's a rocket, she was made to burn. 
We do sing and play your USA music in Aussie Land.
