Analysis of Pedal to the Metal



Back that thing Up!
Gary Morgan over the
singers House
Drop top, gun that motor, I am a rider back sit
back seat
Ragina riding high front seat refusing to drop that top
mother Running from the back grab me
I had to shoot her ass to let me go
Ragina in the front
The singers are off the hook barking
Daddy backing that thing Up hop the church roof with his machine gun and markham
The car race backward, then forward towards
ragina crash into the house
