Now we're going a hundred twenty
As fast as I can go
The _________ pulled along side of me
As if we were going slow
The fella rolled down his window
And yelled for me to hear
&quot;Hey buddy how do I get this car outa second gear?&quot;

'Well mister, I want a yellow convertible, four door DeVille
With a continental spare and a wide chrome wheel
I want air conditionin', I want automatic heat
I want a full Murphy bed in my back seat
I want short wave radio, I want TV and a phone...
I'm burnin' aviation fuel, no matter what the cost
I want railroad air horns and a military spot
And I want a five year guarantee on everything I got!'

This would be No Money Down by Chuck Berry. I furst heard it on that Rhino Recorss Hot Rod Box set. I later was able to notice it when it was used in a scene in Two Lane Black Top!

Reluctantly crouched at the starting line,
Engines pumping and thumping in time.
The green light flashes, the flags go up.
Churning and burning, they yearn for the cup.
They deftly maneuver and muscle for rank,
Fuel burning fast on an empty tank.
Reckless and wild, they pour through the turns.
Their prowess is potent and secretly stearn.
As they speed through the finish, the flags go down.
The fans get up and they get out of town.

This is a bit of tough one:

<span style="font-weight: bold">
I lost a girl it's just as well
She tried to save me from myself
I still got her on my mind
Tossing and turning in my bed

But if she had stayed another week,
I would have dragged her down with me
She took off 'cause she had enough
Is that what I thought love was?

I told her &quot;See you later&quot;
But it's hard to see at all
At the bottom of the barrel
With your back against the wall

I'm not a cool guy anymore
Left it behind and closed the door
I know you can't escape the past
Now I look back and have to laugh

I was my worst enemy
It almost got the best of me
What was I thinking of?
I couldn't stand the way it was</span>

Okay the &quot;bottom of the barrel&quot; line was my trigger.

It is Descendents: coolidge

Not sure the direction of the thread, so feel frse correct but here is my second one. Hint is that the song is only 20 years old and keeps the obligatory car reference.


&quot;Black coat, white shoes, black hat, Cadillac
Yeah, the boy's a time bomb&quot;
