Chorus:
C5
Slow down, little Jaguar
C5
Keep cool, little Thunderbird Ford

C5
Ten miles stretch on an Indiana road
C5
T'was a sky blue Jaguar and a Thunderbird Ford
C5
Jaguar setting on ninety-nine
C5
Tryin' to beat the Bird to the county line
C5
Just a half-a-mile from Ludenville
C5
Had a speed sign sitting at the top of the hill
C5
It said, "35 miles, and stay in line"
C5
But the Jaguar and Thunderbird never read the sign

Chorus:
Slow down, little Jaguar
C5
Keep cool, little Thunderbird Ford

C5
Ludenville was a real small town
C5
Had a hundred and two and nine acres of ground
C5
Some stool pigeon put the sheriff wise
C5
Told him, "Park down in Ludenville and catch 'em guys"
C5
Sheriff laid low down, hid in the weeds
C5
Parked for eight days, didn't nobody speed
C5
All of a sudden, dust rose on the road
C5
Said, "Here come the Jaguar and Thunderbird Ford"

Chorus:
Slow down, little Jaguar
C5
Keep cool, little Thunderbird Ford

C5
Sheriff doubled clutched second, put it in third
C5
Took right after the Jaguar and Thunderbird
C5
He knew he'd get a bonus and a big fat fine
C5
If he caught 'em 'fore they crossed that county line
C5
Sheriff never drove his car a hundred and flat
C5
But if he aimed to get 'em, he'd have to do more than that
C5
Crest of the hill, is about a yard behind
C5
There wasn't but two more miles to the county line

Chorus:
Slow down, little Jaguar
C5
Keep cool, little Thunderbird Ford

C5
Old Sheriff was countin' on the downward grade
C5
With the tall wind pushin', he had it made
C5
Thunderbird saw the Jaguar gainin' speed
C5
And waved "Goodbye, Jaguar" and pulled in the lead
C5
Jaguar said, "You ain't won the race yet"
C5
And pulled back around the Bird like a sabre jet
C5
Sheriff's front bumper was a yard behind
C5
When the T-Bird, Jaguar crossed the line

Chorus:
Slow down little Jaguar
C5
Keep cool little Thunderbird Ford

C5
Slow down, little Jaguar
C5
Keep cool, little Thunderbird Ford
C5
Slow down, little Jaguar
C5
Keep cool, little Thunderbird Ford
C5
Slow down, little Jaguar
C5
Keep cool, little Thunderbird Ford
C5
Slow down, little Jaguar
C5
Keep cool, little Thunderbird Ford
