Dead Man`s Curve
Jan & Dean
(Christian/Berry/Kornfeld/Wilson)
I was cruisin` in my Stingray late one night
When an XKE pulled up on the right
And rolled down the window of his shiny new Jag
And challenged me then and there to a drag
I said, `you`re on, buddy, my mill`s runnin` fine
Let`s come off the line, now, at Sunset and Vine
But I`ll go you one better if you`ve got the nerve
Let`s race all the way
To Dead Man`s Curve`
Chorus:
Dead Man`s Curve, it`s no place to play
Dead Man`s Curve, you must keep away
Dead Man`s Curve, I can hear `em say:
`Won`t come back from Dead Man`s Curve`
The street was deserted late Friday night
We were buggin` each other while we sat out the light
We both popped the clutch when the light turned green
You shoulda heard the whine from my screamin` machine
I flew past LaBrea, Schwab`s, and Crescent Heights
And all the Jag could see were my six taillights
He passed me at Doheny then I started to swerve
But I pulled her out and there we were
At Dead Man`s Curve
Partial chorus:
Dead Man`s Curve, it`s no place to play
Dead Man`s Curve
Dramatic interlude:
Well - the last thing I remember, Doc, I started to swerve
And then I saw the Jag slide into the curve
I know I`ll never forget that horrible sight
I guess I found out for myself that everyone was right
