Lyrics

Here I come in my '57
She's a real low rider, paint perfection
With a custom engine painted black with flames
Ain't nobody gonna call that hot rod tame
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, hoo-hoo
Ooh-hoo, hoo, hoo
A-hoo-hoo
V8 engine with the fuel injection
283, that's my ounce of perfection
Get that rod out when it's very late
Haven't gotten around to gettin' license plates
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, hoo-hoo
Ooh-hoo, hoo, hoo
A-hoo-hoo
Well, I'm cruising low, and I'm cruising mean
Well, I'm cruising slow in my street machine
You're my hot rod mama
And you're really built for speed
You're built for speed, baby!
When I reach that final destination
I will drive up on and leave a compensation
With a little reeling and a lot of rockin'
You're my hot rod mama in your fishnet stockings
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, hoo-hoo
Ooh-hoo, hoo, hoo
A-hoo-hoo
Well, I'm cruising low, and I'm cruising mean
Well, I'm cruising slow in my street machine
You're my hot rod mama
And you're really built for speed
You're built for speed
You're built for speed
You're built for speed
You're built for speed
You're built for speed
You're built for speed
You're built for speed
You're built for speed
You're built for speed
You're built for speed
You're built for speed
You're built for speed
You're built for speed
You're built for speed...
