You may have heard of jalopies,
You heard the noise they make,
Let me introduce you to my Rocket ´88.
Yes it´s great, just won´t wait,
Everybody likes my Rocket ´88.

Gals will ride in style,
Movin´ all along.

V-8 motor and this modern design,
My convertible top and the gals don´t mind
Sportin´ with me, ridin´ all around town for joy.
(Spoken) -- Blow your horn, Rocket, blow your horn!

Step in my Rocket and-a don´t be late,
We´re pullin´ out about a half-past-eight.
Goin´ on the corner and-a havin´ some fun,
Takin´ my Rocket on a long, hot run.
Ooh, goin´ out,
Oozin´ and cruisin´ along.

Now that you´ve ridden in my Rocket ´88,
I´ll be around every night about eight.

You know it´s great, don´t be late,
Everybody likes my Rocket ´88.
Gals will ride in style,
Movin´ all along.
