[00:22.70]I got a sixty-nine Chevy with a 396
[00:28.51]Fuelie heads and a Hurst on the floor
[00:34.32]She's waiting tonight down in the parking lot
[00:39.68]Outside the Seven-Eleven store
[00:45.43]Me and my partner Sonny built her straight out of scratch
[00:51.62]And he rides with me from town to town
[00:56.63]We only run for the money got no strings attached
[01:02.18]We shut 'em up and then we shut 'em down
[01:07.13].
[01:08.20]Tonight, tonight the strip's just right
[01:13.50]I wanna blow 'em off in my first heat
[01:19.88]Summer's here and the time is right
[01:25.18]For goin' racin' in the street
[01:31.00].
[01:31.31]We take all the action we can meet
[01:35.94]And we cover all the northeast state
[01:41.93]When the strip shuts down we run 'em in the street
[01:46.81]From the fire roads to the interstate
[01:52.94]Some guys they just give up living
[01:58.07]And start dying little by little, piece by piece
[02:03.31]Some guys come home from work and wash up
[02:09.06]And go racin' in the street
[02:12.88].
[02:14.70]Tonight, tonight the strip's just right
[02:19.74]I wanna blow 'em all out of their seats
[02:25.82]Calling out around the world,
[02:30.49]we're going racin' in the street
[02:34.37].
[03:01.59]I met her on the strip three years ago
[03:06.15]In a Camaro with this dude from L.A.
[03:11.72]I blew that Camaro off my back and drove that little girl away
[03:23.60]But now there's wrinkles around my baby's eyes
[03:28.78]And she cries herself to sleep at night
[03:35.22]When I come home the house is dark
[03:40.38]She sighs "Baby did you make it all right"
[03:46.01]She sits on the porch of her daddy's house
[03:51.01]But all her pretty dreams are torn
[03:56.77]She stares off alone into the night
[04:01.33]With the eyes of one who hates for just being born
[04:07.45]For all the shut down strangers and hot rod angels
[04:13.51]Rumbling through this promised land
[04:18.25]Tonight my baby and me we're gonna ride to the sea
[04:24.45]And wash these sins off our hands
[04:28.39].
[04:29.63]Tonight tonight the highway's bright
[04:35.02]Out of our way mister you best keep
[04:41.32]'Cause summer's here and the time is right
[04:47.01]For goin' racin' in the street
[04:51.76].
