Songs » C » C.w. Mccall » Super Slab Showdown
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 hows about a little showdown?
Well, hot damn, Im a gamblin man,
So evrybody 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 hes 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, Im a gamblin man,
So evrybody 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, thats it. thats floatin gear! cmon bessie!
Well, tuck it on in and head it for the barn
If we dont win, we gonna sell the farm
If this old wreck dont break my neck,
We gonna take them cows to a discatheque
I says, come on, earl, lets 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, Im a gamblin man,
So evrybody get yer bets down
cause this old trucks gonna make us a buck
Shes rollin the boulevard shakedown
Hot damn, Im 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
