Word's around McDonald's
|
There's a new kid in town
|
Blew in from McLean County,
|
Fastest ride around
|
The Dukes don't believe what they done heard:
|
King lost by five car lengths
|
And then he lost his nerve.
|
Don't know who done it, but
|
He blew away the King
|
Rumor fancy turbo feedin' his machine
|
|
Well the King and his friends are the real live Dukes
|
Readin' hot rod mags in the back of Algebra class
|
Don't give a damn about nothin' at all
|
'cept for a four-barrel carb
|
and an over-haul
|
|
King told the kids
|
He was Number One
|
Said it was his town
|
They's gonna have to run
|
Final showdown at the 4th Street light
|
Howlin' full moon on a hot summer night
|
|
CHORUS:
|
Pedal to the metal
|
First sight of green
|
Send shivers down your spine
|
When you hear those hemi's scream
|
The Duke sat stunned as the kid pulled away
|
To leave the King a pauper to try another day.
