Darlene

She got a scooped-out hood, a 4-barrel carburetor

got high-octane and a stuck accelerator

Spandex bra ridin' halogen heads

she run the needle to the red, you're just a rock between the treads

Darlene

Why do you do the things you do?

Darlene

My ass is tired of chasing you

You gonna rip up all the road the way you runnin' that thing

you make a clunky pile-of-junky old jalopy start to sing, Darlene

She got big fat tires, hot distributor wires

she got a hemi semi jack-and-jimmy super heavy-duty tranny

leave you at the light like granny, starin' at that fine fine fanny

taillights disappearin', don't you wish that you were steerin'?

Darlene

Why do you got to be so tough?

Darlene

My V-8 engine ain't enough.

She put the pedal to the floor, you hear the muffler start to roar

and the she's servin' up the dust and then she's blowin' off your doors, Darlene.

Well, the lights are burnin' down the tree:

red, red, red, green!

I gave it all I had but I was smoked and I was screened

I tried to catch up with Darlene, she wasn't playin' my game

She want a one-ton man, I got a quarter-ton frame!

Darlene

Why do you do the things you do?

Darlene

My ass is tired of chasing you

you gonna rip up all the road the way you runnin' that thing

you make a clunky, pile-of-junky old jalopy start to sing, Darlene
