She named me Dale Darrell Waltrip Richard Petty
Rusty Awesome Bill Irvin Gordon Earnhardt Smith...
Johnson Jr.
I guess you could say momma was a NASCAR fan
I was born in Talladega up in the stands
The fans all cheered the second I arrived
The loudspeaker said "The boys' born to drive"
We didn't have money for a pacifier
So, I sucked on the valve of a Goodyear tire
A seven pound eight ounce son-of-the-south
Born with the taste for racing in my mouth
She named me Dale Darrell Waltrip Richard Petty
Rusty Awesome Bill Irvin Gordon Earnhardt Smith...
Johnson Jr.
I got my first real stock car when I was nine
An old one momma bought off of Jeff Bodine
The Winston Cup people said "The boys too young"
Until I qualified second at Darlington
How in the world can a nine year old child hit 197 at a time trial
The man said momma ought be ashamed...
"But by the way son, tell us what's your name"
I told them Dale Darrell Waltrip Richard Petty
Rusty Awesome Bill Irvin Gordon Earnhardt Smith...
Johnson Jr.
I got a "Toys-R-Us" sponsor and a new pit crew
Daytona loves little #52
The junior-high-school girls are all cheering for me
I'm out their intimidating #3
But I ain't got room on my cards or
my caps or the helmet I'm driving with
To write Dale Darrell Waltrip Richard Petty
Rusty Awesome Bill Irvin Gordon Earnhardt Smith...
Johnson Jr.
