Adam Carroll - Race Car Joe guitar chord

Race Car Joe

Adam Carroll

Capo 4

F C

When the wheels are rolling, he's alive

G C

Going 94 in a '55

F Am

With a burning engine he would go

G C

Down the Gladewater Highway Race Car Joe

F C

Past the Green Frog sign where they sold beer

G C

He takes his orders from an engineer

C Am

He tells the tool pushers which way to go

G C

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

The sun has weathered where the wrinkles show

But the years ain't broken Race Car Joe

Solo

Restless dreams, oil fires, broken drill bits

On a blow out tire, there's nude strip joints

It's a holy row

He's seem 'em all Race Car Joe

Six foot give, East Texas style, 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
