Super Blue
Appeared on Acrylic Teepees and Stories from the Curve
(David Munyon / John Scott Sherrill / Don Devaney)
Chrome and blue fire on a rainy street in 1966
Everybody in this whole town says,
"there goes that kid"...
You could hear him coming seven block away
Always playing "Peggy Sue"
And written there on his license plate,
It said...Super Blue
SUPER BLUE... AH, SUPER BLUE
Ah, nothing could ever slow him down
Not even that one girl's kiss
There really was no rival for that 396
He was always talking about California
And the things he was gonna do
But, even today... down at the Stop n' Save
You could still see Super Blue
SUPER BLUE... AH, SUPER BLUE
Zero to sixty in 4,9
140 at the quarter mile line
He was really flyin' through the cold night air
Sometimes he wonders as the years go past
How'd he ever go so fast and get nowhere
But, he still keeps it shinin' like a diamond
Here in 1994
And drives around listenin' for "Peggy Sue"
But he don't hear it anymore
Every now and then he leaves a little rubber
But nothin' like he used to do
And the kids all say who is that old man
In that cool Super Blue
SUPER BLUE... AH, SUPER BLUE
