[People laughing]

We head toward one

another at full speed.

First one to turn the wheel

before we smash is a chicken.

[People clucking]

Is that legal?

Stop this insanity.

I got some new rules, sucker.

How about you and me on top of the car?

[People agreeing]

I'm man enough, you big cry-baby.

[People booing]

That's Mr. Baby to you.

[People laughing]

Fellows of the press,

this chicken race

tonight is for my daddy.

And I'd like to sing

something in his memory,

something hillbilly.

[Audience agreeing]

Something colored.

[Groaning]

[People booing]

Something my daddy would've loved.

[Audience cheering]
