Big Jake 

Born in the back seat of a bootlegger's run 
His daddy got there at the rise of the Sun 
The doctors  never  could understand 
Being born with a smile and a that wrench in his hand 

Go so fast 
Go so far 
In his wake  
No one can beat Big Jake 

Don't know how 
Don't know why 
For God's sake 
No one can beat Big Jake 

They clocked him breaking the speed of sound 
As the sonic boom was a shaking the ground 
He won so much but couldn't be banned 
Holding a big trophy and that wrench in his hand 

Go so fast 
Go so far 
In his wake  
No one can beat Big Jake 

Don't know how 
Don't know why 
In his wake  

His racing days are far behind 
As he burned up all the plans he designed 
He was the best to drive over this land 
Buried with a bible and a that wrench in his hand  

Go so fast 
Go so far 
In his wake  
No one can beat Big Jake 

Don't know how 
Don't know why 
For God's sake 
No one can beat Big Jake
