I have a vague childhood memory of a song like this. Something to do with a driver trying to shake-off a little car that was following him. "beep-beep,beep-beep,his horn went beep-beep-beep" Each verse has the two cars going faster and faster until finally the little car draws alongside and asks how to "get this thing out of second gear" I don't think it made "Top of the pops" Sorry, not much help to your original request for chords and lyrics (why would you want them anyway?) but it may jog a memory for someone else.

Absolutely, Gareth. It was definitely late 50s, '58 if my poor old memory still works at all. It was a real hoot for the drag racing generation.

Yep....Pene got it but when I was a kid I just loved this one. The tempo keeps increasing throughout the song.

Thanks for the thread, oldheads. And thanks for the link to the DT, Jeff. I never would have thought to look for this song in the DT, but I've been wanting the lyrics for some time. I loved the song as a teenager.

If you remember the tune, the chords are a piece of cake, BRW.
