They go faster and faster until the Cadillac is going as fast as it can go. Then the Rambler pulls along side, the driver rolls the window down and yells "How do I get this thing out of second gear?"

Yes, the song is "Beep, Beep" by The Playmates and released by Roulette Records a couple millenia ago. I have it on an album called Goofy Gold that I actually bought from a t.v. commercial many decades ago, when I was a child and didn't know any better.

Tra "Now we're going a hundred and twenty, as fast as I can go,
The Rambler pulled 'long side of me as if we're going slow.
The fellow rolled down his window, and yelled for me to hear,
'Hey, buddy, how can I get this car, out of second gear?!'" nio
