"Shirley"
(Jennifer Finch)

Welcome the first lady to try and qualify in an NHRA-dragster competition ~ Shirley Muldowney!

Feels so real
Crushing the steering wheel
How many times
Must we toe this line
Halting me
Is a fantasy

Cha-cha! call her cha-cha!
What's drag racing coming to?

How many times must you be told
There's nowhere that we don't go

She's got good traction!

I suggest you find a seat in the grandstands, Because you don't want to miss this!

She's just here wants
What she wants to do

I wonder if Shirley's got in her to hold that throttle down

Kills your joke
As she's burning smoke

Shirley Muldowney is pulling ahead... and she Takes the red light

And you will find
Crossing the finish line

Shirley Muldowney has just set a new track record!

Satisfaction!

How much times must you be told
There's nowhere that we don't go

She's got good traction!

What's a beautiful girl like you doing racing in a place like this?

Winning.

Winning. winning. winning. winning.

The lady got through it
Winning.

What's drag racing coming to?

There's nowhere that we don't go

What's a beautiful girl like you doing racing in a place like this?

Winning.

Winning. winning. winning. winning.
