CI got a sixty-nine Chevy with a 396
Fuelie Fheads and a Hurst on the floor
DmShe's waiting tonight down in the parking lot
Outside the FSeven-Eleven store
Me and my Cpartner Sonny built her straight out of scratch
And he Frides with me from town to town
We only Dmrun for the money got no strings attached
We shut `em Fup and then we shut `em down
ToCnight tonight the strip's just right
I'm gonna Fblow `em off in my first heat
DmSummer's here and the time is right
For raFcin' in the streetC  
CWe take all the action we can meet
And we Fcover all the northeast states
When the Dmstrip shuts down we run `em in the street
>From the Ffire roads to the interstate
Now SCome guys they just give up living
And start dying Flittle by little piece by piece
Some guys Dmcome home from work and wash up
And go Fracin' in the street
CTonight tonight the strip's just right
I'm gonna Fblow `em all out of their seats
DmCalling out around the world
We're going Fracin' in the street
CHe met her on the strip three years ago
In a FCamaro with this dude from L.A.
He Dmblew that Camaro off his back and he Fdrove that little girl away
But now there's Cwrinkles around his baby's eyes
And she Fcries herself to sleep at night
When Dmhe comes home the house is dark
She says FBaby make it all right
She Csits on the porch of her daddy's house
But Fall her pretty dreams are torn
She Dmstares out alone into the night
With the eyes of Fone who hates for just being born
For all the Cshut-down strangers and hot rod angels
FRumbling through this promised land
DmTonight my baby and me we're gonna ride to the sea
And Fwash these sins off our hands
TConight tonight the highway's bright
Out of our Fway mister you best keep
Cause Dmsummer's here and the time is right
For Fracin' in the streetC  Bb  C  Bb  F  C
