While riding in my Cadillac what to my surprise

A little Nash Rambler was following me about one third my size

The guy must have wanted to pass me up As he kept on tootin his horn

I'll show him that a Cadillac is not a car to scorn

Beep Beep * * Beep Beep * * His horn went Beep Beep Beep

I pushed my foot down to the floor to give the guy the shake

But the little Nash Rambler stayed right behind He still had on the brake

He must have thought his car had more guts As he kept on tootin his horn

I'll show him that a Cadillac is not a car to scorn

My car went into passing gear and we took off with dust

Soon we were doin ninety must have left him in the dust

When I peeked in the mirror of my car I couldn't believe my eyes

That little Nash Rambler was right behind

You'd think that guy could fly

Now we're doin a hundred and twenty as fast as I could go

The Rambler pulls along side of me as if I were goin slow

The fellow rolled down his window and yelled for me to hear

"Hey buddy how can I get this car out of second gear?"
