Race car Joe
When the wheels are rolling, he's alive
Going 94 in a '55
With a burning engine he would go
Down the Gladewater Highway, race car Joe
Past the Green Frog sign where they sold beer
He takes his orders from an engineer
Then he tells the tool pushers which way to go
It's one day's work for race car Joe
He's got the Camel points from one last drag
Before he takes the grandkids out to Six Flags
And the sun has weathered where the wrinkles show
But the years ain't broken race car Joe, yeah
ย
There's restless dreams, there's oil fires
There's broken drill bits on a blown-out tire
There's nude strip joints, it's a holy row
He's seen 'em all, race car Joe
He's six foot five, East Texas style
He's brand-new teeth now on a crooked smile
In a one-ton pickup, with a cancer glow
When he looks at you, race car Joe
When he laughs with you, race car Joe
When he smiles at you, race car Joe
