Racing In The Street

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

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