1
I was cruisin' in my Stingray late one night
2
When an XKE pulled up on the right
3
He rolled down the window of his shiny new Jag
4
And challenged me then and there to a drag
5
I said, "you're on, buddy, my mill's runnin' fine
6
Let's come off the line, now, at Sunset and Vine
7
But I'll go you one better if you've got the nerve
8
Let's race all the way
9
To Dead Man's Curve"
10
Dead Man's Curve, it's no place to play
11
Dead Man's Curve, you must keep away
12
Dead Man's Curve, I can hear 'em say:
13
"Won't come back from Dead Man's Curve"
14
The street was deserted late Friday night
15
We were buggin' each other while we sat out the light
16
We both popped the clutch when the light turned green
17
You shoulda heard the whine from my screamin' machine
18
I flew past LaBrea, Schwab's, and Crescent Heights
19
And all the Jag could see were my six taillights
20
He passed me at Doheny then I started to swerve
21
But I pulled her out and there we were
22
At Dead Man's Curve
23
Dead Man's Curve, it's no place to play
24
Dead Man's Curve
25
Well - the last thing I remember, Doc, I started to swerve
26
And then I saw the Jag slide into the curve
27
I know I'll never forget that horrible sight
28
I guess I found out for myself that everyone was right
29
"Won't come back from Dead Man's Curve"
