The above lyrics are from the Bill Haley and the Comets cover, which were partially edited for the "white" market. In the Joe Turner version, the third verse is: Wearing those dresses/the sun comes shinning through/can't believe my eyes/all of this belongs to you. The censors missed the meanig of meaning of "one-eyed cat/peeping in a sea food store" in the next verse. The correct last line of that verse is "...tell you ain't no child no more." |

Acually its not about drag racing, more a one on one road race, with the prize for cathching up with the woman is that she'll go out with him again. If he hadn't caught her, the relationship was toast. Note the begining: "motivating over the hill," drag racing isn't done on hills. For a very different theme, but the same time of race, see "Hot Rod Lincoln," or for humor "The Little Nash Rambler" |
