Chords with lyrics
#4 in 1958.
#1. (Slow)
E MajorE
While riding in my Cadillac, what to my surprise.
B7B7
A augmentedA little Nash Rambler was following me,
E MajorE
about one third my size.
E MajorE
The guy must have wanted to pass me up,
E MajorE
as he kept on tooting his horn.
E MajorE
I'll show him that a Cadillac is not a car to scorn.
CHORUS:
B7B7
Beep-beep, beep-beep..
E MajorE
His horn went beep, beep, beep.
#2.(A augmentedA bit faster.)
B7B7
I pushed my foot down to the floor,
E MajorE
to give the guy the shake.
B7B7
But the little Nash Rambler stayed right behind..
E MajorE
He still had on his brake.
E MajorE
He musta thought his car had more guts,
E MajorE
as he kept on tooting his horn.
E MajorE
I'll show him that a Cadillac is not a car to scorn.
CHORUS:
B7B7
Beep-beep, beep-beep..
E MajorE
His horn went beep, beep, beep.
#3. (Faster.)
E MajorE
My car went into passing gear and we
E MajorE
took off with gust.
E MajorE
Soon we were going ninety,
E MajorE
musta left him in the dust.
E MajorE
When I peeked in the mirror of my car
E MajorE
I couldn't believe my eyes.
B7B7
The little Nash Rambler was right behind,
E MajorE
you'd think that guy could fly.
CHORUS:
B7B7
Beep-beep, beep-beep..
E MajorE
His horn went beep, beep, beep.
#4.(Faster.)
E MajorE
Now we were doing a hundred and ten, this certainly
E MajorE
was a race.
E MajorE
For a Rambler to pass a Caddy, would be a big disgrace.
E MajorE
The guy must have wanted to pass me up,
E MajorE
as he kept on tooting his horn.
E MajorE
I'll show him that a Cadillac is not a car to scorn.
#5.(Very fast.)
E MajorE
Now we're going a hundred and twenty, as fast as I could go.
E MajorE
The Rambler pulled along side of me as if we were going slow.
E MajorE
The fella rolled down his window and yelled for me to hear..
E MajorE
'Hey buddy how do I get this car, outa sec..ond gear '
A augmentedA fifties smash from Kraziekhat.
