8 Dirt Racer Songtext
von Adam Brand

Well, good evening ladies and gentlemen and welcome
To this full throttle thrill show that is World Series Sprint Cars
Well folks, they′ve come from far and wide for this one
Three of the best that Uncle Sam can slam down
And some fearless Aussies, gettin' ready to get it on
We′re about to go hot lappin', the track is in excellent shape
You're about to feel the ground pound folks
As we get ready to rack ′em and stack ′em for hot laps

Dirt racer, whose gonna set quick time?
Whose gonna start this race at the head of the line?
Got the right rear tyre and it's locked on tight
Got the big main wing and it′s set just right
When the power goes down and the horses bite
Well, you'd better believe there′s gonna be a fight, tonight, alright


We're green
Dirt racer, it′s gonna be your night
Dirt racer, you've got it all on the line
The whole wide world will know your name
When you're standing there in victory lane
Dirt racer

Well, General John Day leads ′em around in the you beaut ute
As we get set for the four wide salute
Come on ladies and gentlemen, get up on your feet and salute these heroes
Ooh, the place is electric, you can cut the air with a knife

Got fresh-faced kids, just out of school
Got wise old veterans, they ain′t no fools
Max, the throttle stompin' family man from Warnambool
When the best of the best, they roll into town
Talk is cheap, time to settle this now
When the power goes down, and the horses bite
(650 horses and they′re gonna use every one of them)
Well, you'd better believe there′s gonna be a fight, tonight, alright

(We're green)
Dirt racer, gonna be your night
Dirt racer, you′ve got it all on the line
The whole wide world will know your name
When you're standing there in victory lane
Dirt racer


All hell breaks loose as these guys crush the size nines to the firewall
Hammering into turn one and two, ooh we got one into the wall
They gas it up down the back straightaway, smokin' those big right rear tyres
Ooh, we′re gonna go three wide, hold on to your heart pills
Drew Kruck is your race leader but here comes Furr, he′s got that puppy flat workin'
Up on the high line as they come out of four, we′ve got a challenge for the lead

Dirt racer, it's gonna be your night
Dirt racer, you′ve got it all on the line
The whole wide world will know your name
When you're standing there in victory lane
Dirt racer, it′s gonna be your night
Dirt racer, you've got it all on the line
The whole wide world will know your name
When you're standing there in victory lane

Come on race fans, get up on your feet and make some noise for your new world series champ

This′ll be the ride of your life

Well folks, that′s all from us at world series sprint cars
But remember to drive home carefully
Leave the speeding to us and gas it up at the track
And don't forget to tell your friends and neighbours
That Saturday night is speedway night, ooh yeah, ha ha ha
Fans of all ages, they love these things with wings
Mark 3 with their hair on fire, that′s what we love about sprint cars
Light 'em up boys, ooh yeah!
