Me an` earl was workin` the superslab outside a` that ogallala?
When outta town come a local clown in a `65 impala
Had a `coon tail flyin` off a` his whip antenna
We was haulin` a load a` them go-go girls
Truckin` `em over to o-town
Old boy got on his microphone
Says "how`s about a little showdown?"
Well, hot damn, i`m a gamblin` man,
So ev`rybody get yer bets down
`cause this old truck gonna make us a buck
Chicken in the bread pan, pickin` out vittles
Swing them heifers and away we go
Wake up, earl, we gots to race that pile a` junk over ta north platte city
Well, one-eyed bears and deuces wild
We got the back door pad-locked
He says, "bet five bucks and a side a` beef,
"i can beat them cows ta flat rock."
You hear that, earl? he says he`s gonna whip ol` bessie here!
I says, "call your five and raise ya ten
"jes` kiss that chevy goodby, boy
"`cause when bessie hits that floatin` gear
"you gonna be eatin` hereford pie. yeah."
Well, hot damn, i`m a gamblin` man,
So ev`rybody get yer bets down
`cause this old truck gonna make us a buck
She gonna round them curves at thirty gees
A trunk full a` cows an` a hood full a` bees
Move it up a notch, earl.
Yeah, that`s it. that`s floatin` gear! c`mon bessie!
Well, tuck it on in and head it for the barn
If we don`t win, we gonna sell the farm
If this old wreck don`t break my neck,
We gonna take them cows to a discatheque
I says, "come on, earl, let`s give it a whirl.
"that chevy is a-pickin` up speed."
Well, we crossed the platte at a hundred flat
Old bessie was a-blowin` the weeds
We definitely was in that monfort lane.
Yeah, we won the race with a bovine ace
When the chevy made a fatal pass
Yeah, he got too close
Got a terminal dose a` that good ol` hereford gas.
Phew!
Hot damn, i`m a gamblin` man,
So ev`rybody get yer bets down
`cause this old truck`s gonna make us a buck
She`s rollin` the boulevard shakedown
Hot damn, i`m a truckin` man
And i sorta like ta put my foot down
This old rig gonna blow your wig
Got go-go girls and a peterbilt cab
Gonna see ya all out on the superslab for a showdown Send " Super Slab Showdown" Ringtone to your Cell
