44. Dead Man's Curve

(I'm unable to post video)

Dead Man's Curve by Jan & Dean


I was cruising in my Sting Ray late one night
When an XKE pulled up on the right
He pulled down the window of his shiny new Jag
And challenged me then and there to a drag

I said "You're on, buddy - my mill's running fine
Let's come off the line now at Sunset and Vine
But I'll go you one better, if you've got the nerve
Let's race all the way - to Dead Man's Curve"

Dead Man's Curve, is no place to play
Dead Man's Curve, you'd best keep away
Dead man;s Curve, I can hear 'em say
"Won't come back from Dead Man's Curve"
