Lyrics
Pinks All Out was on my TV, the 1/4 mile strip looked like fun to me, got me a dragster made er go fast, with Nitro Methane and Airplane gas.
I'm Drag Racin down the 1/4 mile, Drag Racin, make me smile, Drag Racin - nothin I can't whip, on the strip!
I' staged at the tree, ready to race, when it turns green they are in 2nd place, 4:11 gears burnin' my wheels, and my cars faster than the Batmobile!
My drag racer's built for speed, a 1000 horsepower is what I need, Feelin' the G's makin' er scream, runnin' my dragster, livin the dream.
I'm feelin' the speed as I hit 4th gear, I was Hot today, I got no fear, but nothin better on the track today, 1st place again is what they say..
It's time to deploy the parachute, thinkin' bout the Race Queen, hope she's cute, gettin' that Wally was a lot of work, but today my dragster hit pay dirt!
