Joey lived a mile outta Southern Cross<br /> | |
Working on trucks for the local pit boss<br /> | |
Friday nights when he'd come to town<br /> | |
They'd all line up to see him lay some<br /> | |
Rubber down<br /> | |
<br /> | |
Joey had a ute built in '74<br /> | |
With a 350 Chevy and 4 on the floor<br /> | |
Chrome wire wheels and customised back<br /> | |
He could run the main street ¼ mile in under 10 flat<br /> | |
<br /> | |
'Cause he's the king of the road out here<br /> | |
He's won four big Ford's and an old John Deer<br /> | |
He won the summer nationals twice<br /> | |
He's the king of the road out here on Friday nights<br /> | |
<br /> | |
Was a summer's night and I remember it well<br /> | |
A city boy thought he had a story to tell<br /> | |
He had a turbo charged flash in the pan<br /> | |
He walked up to Joey and said<br /> | |
Hey, I hear you're the man<br /> | |
<br /> | |
The whole town was there, it was quite a scene<br /> | |
It was the biggest race there ever had been<br /> | |
That little car looked pretty in red<br /> | |
Now Joey's gran is driving it instead<br /> | |
<br /> | |
You might have Brocky in the city spotlight<br /> | |
But you ain't ever seen Joey on a Friday night<br /> | |
Folks come a-running from miles around<br /> | |
Just to see our Joey laying rubber down |
