I got a Csixty-nine Chevy with a 396
Fuelie headsC and a Hurst on the floor
She's wAmaiting tonight down in the parking lot
Outside the SCeven-Eleven store
Me and my pCartner Sonny built her straight out of scratch
And he ridesC with me from town to town
We only Amrun for the money got no strings attached
We shut `em Cup and then we shut `em down
CTonight,C tonight the strip's just right
I wanna bClow `em off in my first heat
AmSummer's here and the time is right
For rCacin' in the street
We Ctake all the action we can meet
And we cCover all the northeast state
When the stAmrip shuts down we run `em in the street
From the fCire roads to the interstate
Now sCome guys they just give up living
And start dCying little by little piece by piece
Some guys come hAmome from work and wash up
Then go rCacin' in the street
CTonight, Ctonight the strip's just right
I wanna bClow `em all out of their seats
AmCalling out around the world
We're going rCacin' in the street

I met hCer on the strip three years ago
In a CCamaro with this dude from L.A.
I Amblew that Camaro off my back
And dCrove that little girl away
But now tChere's wrinkles around my baby's eyes
And she crCies herself to sleep at night
When I come Amhome the house is dark
She sighs &Cquot;Baby did you make it all right"
She Csits on the porch of her daddy's house
But Call her pretty dreams are torn
She sAmtares off alone into the night
With the eCyes of one who hates for just being born
For all the Cshut-down strangers and hot rod angels
RumCbling through this promised land
ToniAmght my baby and me we're gonna ride to the sea
And wCash these sins off our hands
CTonight,C tonight the highway's bright
Out oCf our way mister you best keep
`Cause sAmummer's here and the time is right
We're goin' rCacin' in the street
