[Intro] Gm Ab Gm Ab [Verse 1]
           Gm
Well there she is undercover
A wild, wild lover
         Ab
Take her out and show her off like a movie star

      Gm
I got all my boys with me
Coolio is lookin' spiffy
        Ab
And I'm lookin' for a safe spot to park the ride

  Gm
I slipped the man a twenty
The keys to my honey, say
Ab
   Have her back in 45

     Gm
He ensures with a wink
And jumps into the frontseat
Ab
Purring like a kitty
Throws her ass in drive
Gm
You can hear it comin'
A big 8 hummin'
Ab
Stereo thumping through American steel

         Gm
With the boom-boom-tick
The bass so thick
    Ab
The line so sick

                  Gm
Sittin' on stock wheels
65 down the trucking side(?)
         Ab
With the hoola-hoop just shaking by the dashboard light

Gm
   I gotta keep the chrome brighter than bright

  Ab
I gotta keep it clean
I gotta keep it tide [Chorus]
Bb
Born in the '60's

          Gb
When they still took pride

Cm
Making sure beneath you was a

Db7    C7    B7       Bb
Swank, Swank    Ride

Db7    C7    B7       Bb
Swank, Swank    Ride

Db7    C7    B7       Bb
Swank, Swank    Ride
[Verse 2]
        Gm
All the looks, the props

                              Ab
I get when I'm waiting at the light

                                             Gm
The cops, the kids, they're checkin' out the ride

                                  Ab
And I, like a proud daddy I would brag

                                                Gm
And rims are all are nice but I'm never rocking mags

                                                Ab
But if you wanna drag, I think you better think twice

                                           Gm
A natural born killer's still quick and precise

                                               Ab
And like a little this, could be wonder what I got
Well it don't stop
         Gm
I keep a special display, out of sight

Ab
Farming out green and Barry White

             Gm
'Cause we're on our way up inspiration points

    Ab
The ladies love to hear a rockin' sexy joint

           Gm
I hear the summery races are going off

Ab
Bumper rides are such another thing gone

      Gm
And I wonder who she likes more me or the car
[Chorus]

[Instrumental] Db7 C7 B7 Bb7 A7 [Bridge]
Ab
At full force fools
A hot Chevy Truth ends at the BM Smashin' out in the GM See Suburban Flat out I'm cadillacing No jackin' everything so ain't sense in jackin' Don't you never try to touch my fiat, BI I put the five inch CI To meet just on your Fiat Here they go jumpin' in a Buick Regal Still pickin' up tips like a seagull In a Jeep Beetle
Gm
   It don't get no better
When you get more tenor (?)
    Ab
You get horse power
At miles by how what
    Gm
The more the merrier my
Paint this chariot
         Ab
And them suckers on the block
and I still travel stock
Gm
Look out for hoes whose all on them per-io

Ab
Rubbin' those skin tight mater-io

Gm
At home we pass through
everybody say there they go
      Ab
Smash Mouth and Coolio
loud clear no stereo [Chorus]
