Gear Head Blues — текст песни (Nine Pound Hammer)

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.
