I'm gonna tell you the whole story, the whole truth.
Nothing but the truth.
I ain't gonna leave out a thing.
By the time you leave here tonight, you'll know the whole story. _
Cause my papa said, son, you're gonna drive me to drinking if you don't stop driving that hot rod Lincoln.

Have you heard the story of the hot rod race?
[A] Went forward, didn't link it, just set in place.
That [B] story's true and I'm here to say [E] cause I was driving that Model A.
_ _ It's got a Lincoln motor [B] and it's really souped up and [A] that Model A body makes it look like a club.
It's [B] got eight cylinders and a U.
When I'm all [E] gone over driving, it just won't stop. _ _
With four barrel cars and a dual exhaust [A] and four 11 gears, you can really get lost.
[B] It's got safety gears but I ain't [E] scared.
Brakes are good and the tires though.
_ _ _ Pulled out of San Pedro late one [A] night when the moon and the stars were shining bright.
[B] We was driving up old Grapevine Hill, [E] patting the car like [A] they was standing [Em] still. _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ [B] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ All of a sudden in the wink of an [A] eye, a Cadillac sedan passes [B] by and I said,
Hey boys, that's Mark with [E] me, Bob's and the taillights is all you can see.
_ _ Now the boys all read me for being behind so I [A] thought I'd make that Lincoln [B] unwind.
Took my foot off the gab, man [E] alive, I shoved it on [B] down in overdrive.
[A] _ _
[B] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ [E] Well I wound it up to 110 [A] miles per hour, sat in the wheel, hip top [B] and my foot was blue like lead to the [E] floor.
I saw the resident, ain't no more. _
Now the boys all thought I'd lost my [A] sense and in telephone poles looked like a picket [B] fence said race on down.
I see [E] spots and lines all the [B] road just look like. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
We took a corner side swipe and [A] struck back off my finger, just for luck.
[B] My offense was clicking the guardrail poles [E] and the guy beside me was white as a goat. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ Smoke was coming from out of the back when I [A] started to gain on that Cadillac.
When [B] I knew I could catch him and I thought I could pass but don't you know by then we'll be low on [E] gas. _ _
That flames come from out of the side, you [A] could feel the tension man, what a ride.
I [B] said look out boys, I got a nice reply and [E] that Caddy pulled over and let us by. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G#m] _ _
Then [E] all of a sudden she started to knock it [A] down and then she started rocking.
I [B] looked in the mirror, red light was blinking, [E] the cops was there for my hot rod licking.
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Em] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [B] Well Wilbur, [E] they arrested me and then they put me in jail [A] and then called my pappy to throw my bail.
He said son you're gonna drive me into drinking if you don't [E] stop driving that hot [C#] rod licking.
