C
I got a sixty-nine Chevy with a 396
C
Fuelie heads and a Hurst on the floor
Am
She's waiting tonight down in the parking lot
C
Outside the Seven-Eleven store
C
Me and my partner Sonny built her straight out of scratch
C
And he rides with me from town to town
Am
We only run for the money got no strings attached
C
We shut `em up and then we shut `em down
C C
Tonight, tonight the strip's just right
C
I wanna blow `em off in my first heat
Am
Summer's here and the time is right
C
For racin' in the street
C
We take all the action we can meet
C
And we cover all the northeast state
Am
When the strip shuts down we run `em in the street
C
C
Now some guys they just give up living
C
And start dying little by little piece by piece
Am
Some guys come home from work and wash up
C
Then go racin' in the street
C C
Tonight, tonight the strip's just right
C
I wanna blow `em all out of their seats
Am
Calling out around the world
C
We're going racin' in the street

C
I met her on the strip three years ago
C
In a Camaro with this dude from L.A.
Am
I blew that Camaro off my back
C
And drove that little girl away
C
But now there's wrinkles around my baby's eyes
C
And she cries herself to sleep at night
Am
When I come home the house is dark
C
She sighs "Baby did you make it all right"
C
She sits on the porch of her daddy's house
C
But all her pretty dreams are torn
Am
She stares off alone into the night
C
With the eyes of one who hates for just being born
C
For all the shut-down strangers and hot rod angels
C
Rumbling through this promised land
Am
Tonight my baby and me we're gonna ride to the sea
C
And wash these sins off our hands
C C
Tonight, tonight the highway's bright
C
Out of our way mister you best keep
Am
`Cause summer's here and the time is right
C
We're goin' racin' in the street
