This one would definitely stick out in a crowd, but you can't tell anything about it....

You wanna race?
If you insist,
At that price I can't resist,
That's right, (repeat 4X)
Showdown you bet,
And I haven't even saddled my pony yet,
Have mercy Miss Percy,
I done put the coon tune on this bet,
That's right, (repeat 4X)
Tonite it ain't right,
I got to have me a week,
But I'll be back for you Jack,
And I'll let the machine speak,
That's right, (repeat 4X)
And yeah, this song is old (it's from the 70's).
