Little Deuce Coupe Lyrics
You don't know what I got
Little deuce Coupe
You don't know what I got

But I've got the fastest set of wheels in town
When something comes up to me he don't even...

Double entandra too - shes my little loose kook :)

"the four on the floor--S/B "..a four on the floor, meaning a 4-speed transmission with the shifter mounted on the floor rather than on the steering column, as Dad's car would have had it.
"she purrs like a kitten till the lake pipes roar" Lake pipes were a type of exterior, chrome exhaust pipes that visibly ran along the lower, outside of the car or at the edge of the running board. Compared to "scavengers" which hung underneath.
