<pre><font size='+2'>DEAD MAN S CURVE lyrics JAN AND DEAN</font><br>I was cruisin` in my Stingray late one night,<br />
When an XKE pulled up on the right<br />
He rolled down the window of his shiny new Jag,<br />
And challenged me then and there to a drag<br />
<br />
I said `You`re on buddy -- my mill`s running fine,<br />
Let`s come off the line now at Sunset and Vine<br />
But I`ll go you one better, if you`ve got the nerve,<br />
Let`s race all the way -- to Dead Man`s Curve`<br />
<br />
(Dead Man`s Curve) is no place to play<br />
(Dead Man`s Curve) you`d best keep away<br />
(Dead Man`s Curve) I can hear `em say:<br />
`Won`t come back from Dead Man`s Curve`<br />
<br />
The street was deserted late Friday night;<br />
We were buggin` each other while we sat out the light<br />
We both popped the clutch when the light turned green,<br />
You shoulda heard the whine from my screamin` machine!<br />
<br />
I flew past La Brea, Schwab`s and Crescent Heights,<br />
And all the Jag could see were my six taillights<br />
He passed me at Doheny then I started to swerve,<br />
But I pulled her out and there we were - at Dead Man`s Curve<br />
<br />
(Dead Man`s Curve) is no place to play<br />
(Dead Man`s Curve... [sounds of skids and crashes] )<br />
<br />
(Spoken): `Well, the last thing I remember, Doc,<br />
I started to swerve<br />
And then I saw the Jag slide into the curve<br />
I know I`ll never forget that horrible sight,<br />
I guess I found out for myself that everyone was right`<br />
<br />
Won`t come back from Dead Man`s Curve...<br />
<br />
(Dead Man`s Curve) is no place to play<br />
(Dead Man`s Curve) you`d best keep away<br />
(Dead Man`s Curve) I can hear `em say:<br />
`Won`t come back from Dead Man`s Curve`<br />
<br />
(Dead Man`s Curve) is no place to play<br />
(Dead Man`s Curve) you`d best keep away<br />
(Dead Man`s Curve) I can hear `em say:<br />

I was cruisin` in my Stingray late one night,
When an XKE pulled up on the right
He 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 running 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`

(Dead Man`s Curve) is no place to play
(Dead Man`s Curve) you`d best 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 La Brea, 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

(Dead Man`s Curve) is no place to play
(Dead Man`s Curve... [sounds of skids and crashes] )

(Spoken): `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`

Won`t come back from Dead Man`s Curve...

(Dead Man`s Curve) is no place to play
(Dead Man`s Curve) you`d best keep away
(Dead Man`s Curve) I can hear `em say:
`Won`t come back from Dead Man`s Curve`

(Dead Man`s Curve) is no place to play
(Dead Man`s Curve) you`d best keep away
(Dead Man`s Curve) I can hear `em say:
`Won`t come back from Dead Man`s Curve` (fade)
