I'd like to call somebody to the stage that you know as a folk
But you haven't met in his other role

Paul is a with a unique point of view and commentary
And in this capacity, and gentlemen
Please with me to the stage, my good friend
My compatriot, Stookey

That was the sound of a ball
Or if a ping-pong enthusiast, that was a sound of a ping-pong ball
Except generally you'll

That's the sound of a match between a golfer and a enthusiast

I golf today, 18 holes I played golf, wooo
I did pretty good too, I think you have been very proud of me
Four. Five. Six

I don't like sports very
There's a vast of sports that I'm not invlved in.

And I don't to swim, really
You what swimming is to me?

But I didn't come out here to about sports
I really, I came out here, talks about status
And I cannot of one material object that has more status in this country
Than the
And it starts at a very age now, right?
I mean, now at 14, kids want the car,
get cheaters permits so they can drive
You get a learners permit at 15, a permit at 14
And it's, I guess it's really necessary
You a lot of face calling up a girl and asking her
If you can peddle right over and pick her up,

They don't really go for that any
And if you look on all the times you had the automobile
Aside a few interesting saturday evenings
You got to admit that one of the times of all
Was a afternoon, if you could get the car
You down the stairs, ker-clunk ker-clunk ker-clunk ker-clunk

Beautiful day for a drive, I think go out

Hey, I got an idea, he he
Yeah, what's
Lets go to a drive-in and look at the girls, hehehe
Oh, ok
Well, here they are, but they're all from our high
Wait a minute, there's a car load there
There's a place right to them, lets go get it

Don't at 'em
Here's the conversation in the girls car you never

Here come
There are
look at 'em

Remember the time when drive-ins first
And the girls used to out to take your order?
Now you're you know, if you get a girl in slacks who delivers it
I understand they're putting in conveyor belts in some drive-in resturants
There was a time when the little girls came running out in short little
them?
You in
And the little girl come running up
May I take your sir?
Yes, but I don't it's on the menu, ha ha
They don't, they let you flirt any more now
give you a little green box with a white button on it
A speaker grill, right

Oh, ok, um, like one cheeseburger deluxe special extra
The one you out here with the little white cup
With that whatever that's in there, we'll it, whatever it is
And uh, we'd like two medium rare with everything on 'em
And one hamburger, no, one hamburger, meat, no
One frank, and chiliburgers, ok?
Alright, and we'd two chocolate shakes, regular thick, for spoons you know THICK
And we'd like two strawberry thin
Water them down, or them down a little, ok
'Cause we got somebody here with chapped lips and they'd it thin
Can, you understand I mean?
Are you

Well, could you tell us we have please?

And four
We'll it
And after you get your order in, you got at least 40 minutes to wait
Even if it's just a cup of coffee you got 40 to wait
And you get out of your car, right
Remember was a time when drive-ins first opened
You to pull in and get out, exchange hellos, greetings
Evidentally some people were out and exchanging
Something a little heavier than and greetings
They have policemen to keep you in your car
You can be 47 old and drop your credit cards on the ground
Officer, that's my
I don't care who you are kid in the car
If you do get out, you gotta be careful
Because the new resturants radar now
So you have to crawl on your belly between the
You get over to the of the car

Psssst here!
I can't up, they'll spot me
Put down your

Power windows,
Whoo, this is a fancy car
Hey, you're a fancy broad

If you did manage to get out of the drive-in without being maimed
There was a sporting event taking at the traffic light
Remember, with all of two
Mr. Businessman who drove a 4-door family with black-wall tires
Automatic
Seated to him in a 1941 gray primer coated Ford
With rear end 2 inches off the ground
Tomato for mufflers
his back to the drivers window, his left arm draped over the steering wheel
His right hand gripped the gearshift lever
A sneer on sat THE KID

Well, Mr. Businessman has had his bands tightened, and
Those of you who are not quite what I mean
By your bands tightened
The bands are the rings in an transmission
Which actually affect the change
Uh huh, I'll give you an
This is an automobile tight bands

is an automobile with loose bands

Well, Mr. Businessman has had his bands tightened
And he thinks he will show THE KID a thing or two
Meanwhile, THE KID
Has these 2 fingers up over his left arm
This is the universal signlanguage among for dragging
You probably Winston Churchill during the war years
everyone assumed meant V for victory
Actually if also recall Winston Churchill smokes a cigar, right?
He used to hold it in here,
And he would turn to his friends on the stage and say
Want a
See, and the picked it up
The changes
The changes to amber and Mr. Businessman decides to get very daring
He pulls the transmission down into low
He one foot on the brake
holding the foot on the brake, in order to get that extra fast start
He pulls the automatic transmission into low
And pushes down on the accelerator inches
The car is hemorraging
He knows, he knows, he knows he's gonna have to have another job
He's not gonna let THE KID him up
The light changes to green, Mr. is off

at the speedometer, 80, 90, 95, 96, 97, 98 miles an hour
Looks out the window and The Kids not even
You know what's

He looks in the view mirror and The Kids still back at the corner
He races anybody
He just sits and scares the hell out of them
