[Verse]

Am
Your daddy says that I'm no good

He don't know what's under my hood
Dm
427 straight pipe exhaust
Am
Lapping up hi-test, screw the cost

Earth angel speed demon, out of our way
Bbm
Bored out rocket blow em all away
Bm
Calloway cam I'm supercharged
Cm                          G
Daddy can't catch us in his beat-up Dodge


[Chorus]

A
Looking like the cover of a hot rod mag
D
Baby's wrapped up in a checkered flag
B
All souped up and ready to drag
E
My baby's wrapped up in a checkered flag
A
Can't be humble, gotta have the rumble

Can't be humble, gotta have the rumble

Can't be humble, gotta have the rumble

Can't be humble, gotta have the rumble


[Interlude]

Am


[Verse 2]

Am
Ten red lights, only stopped at five

Bury the needle I'm in over-drive
Dm
Dropped it on down to manual mode
Am
White line fever, king of the road

Hot rod momma gotta take the wheel
Bbm
Eyes are getting bleary it's part of the deal
Bm
Check the rear view put the pedal down
Cm                       G
I'm blasting out of this one-horse town


[Chorus 2]

A
Looking like the cover of a hot rod mag
D
Baby's wrapped up in a checkered flag
B
All souped up and ready to drag
E
My baby's wrapped up in a checkered flag
A
Can't be humble, gotta have the rumble

Can't be humble, gotta have the rumble

Can't be humble, gotta have the rumble

Can't be humble, gotta have the rumble


[Solo]

Am Dm Am
Em Dm Am


[Verse 3]

Am
Your brother got a Mustang thinks he's tough

Hit 4th gear leave him in the dust
Dm
8 barrels pumping in harmony
Am
Peel out, burn rubber, street symphony

Posi-traction on all the curves
Bbm
No slip, no slide, no need to swerve
Bm
Full tank, top down, by my side
Cm                  G
Rockabilly dream is coming alive


[Chorus 3]

A
Looking like the cover of a hot rod mag
D
Baby's wrapped up in a checkered flag
B
All souped up and ready to drag
E
My baby's wrapped up in a checkered flag
A
Can't be humble, gotta have the rumble
