Mopar music?
« on: August 03, 2009 - 08:09:24 AM »
Ok, so I have been doing some local car shows and they all have DJs of course.

There are songs out there about all sorts of chevy and ford cars.......my favorite right now is "Hot Rod Lincoln"... :bigsmile:

How about Mopar songs?  Are there any?

Went to 3 cruises over the weekend and Mopars were in very low attendance.....but we were there! Would love to be able to request a song that showcases a Mopar (even if its not a fish) instead of bowties and ovals....

I see a reference online to 'Little Old Lady from Pasadena", having a super stock dodge...any other ones?

One of my favorite bands, Clutch, has a fun song called Spacegrass. Ministry and Circle Jerks always pop into my head too, but since they are already listed, here's another list I found a while back: http://www.allpar.com/history/songs.html
-Jay, J.J., James, Jimmy Joe...I answer to all of them.

Don't get me wrong, there's a time and place for all types of music, especially depending on the mood, but I definitely have my preferences. :thumbsup:

Now Daddy ran the whiskey in a big block Dodge
Bought it at an auction at the Mason's Lodge
Johnson County Sheriff painted on the side
Just shot a coat of primer then he looked inside
Well him and my uncle tore that engine down
I still remember that rumblin' sound
Steve Earle    Copperhead Road    Now Daddy ran the whiskey in a big block Dodge
Bought it at an auction at the Mason's Lodge

Weird Al Yankovic    Belvedere Cruising

...Now, I don't think that I could hack
Drivin' a big white Cadillac
With ripped up upholstery and unnecessary frills
No, I don't think that I could bear
Drivin' somethin' other than a Belvedere
In a Belvedere I can really get my thrills

Goin' Belvedere cruisin' tonight
Just watch me pass that Porsche on the right
I can take you anywhere
In my 1964 Belvedere
Goin' Belvedere cruisin' tonight

...There's somethin' 'bout a Comet
That makes me wanna vomit
And those Datsuns just ain't worth a Fudgesicle, no

Goin' Belvedere cruisin' tonight
You got nothin' to lose but your life
It can take away your blues
All you've gotta do is cruise
In my big black Plymouth Belvedere tonight...

Joe Walsh    Ordinary Average Guy    "My friend's got a Chrysler
I've got a Dodge
We're just ordinary average guys"

Lynyrd Skynyrd    Outta Hell in my Dodge    I’m gonna get outta hell in my Dodge
Can’t take this anymore
Gonna go downtown pick up my girl
There ain’t nothin’ worth waitin’ for
Take the road less traveled
Spend my life behind the wheel
Gonna get outta hell in my Dodge
Freedom made out of steel

Red Hot Chili Peppers    Me and My Friends    Jacky's eyes are closed
but he's right on course
because he's guided by the invisible force
he drives a kooky green chrysler
bad as anybody's porsche

ZZ Top    Mexican Blackbird    Driving a Chrysler down to Mexico

Lyle Lovett    Here I Am    If Ford is to Chevrolet
What Dodge is to Chrysler
What Corn Flakes are to Post Toasties
What the clear blue sky is to the deep blue sea
What Hank Williams is to Neil Armstrong
Can you doubt we were made for each other

Jan & Dean    Little Old Lady from Pasadena     She drives a super stock Dodge that beats all covers - "parked in her rickety old garage is a brand new super stock Dodge, and every one knows that there is nobody meaner than the little old lady from Pasadena"

Boss Martians    Badd-*** 71 Dodge Super Bee     "I run a 71 Dodge Super Bee
got a mean V8 on a dueled exaust with the magnum 383
Ain't got the red for the big R/T...
got a bad ### 71 dodge super bee..."

B-52s    Love Shack    "I got me a Chrysler, it seats about 20" - a 1965 Chrysler 300

Clutch    Spacegrass    Dodge Swinger nineteen seventy three, top down, chassis low; Panel dim, lightdrive, Jesus on the dashboard. Hit neutral in the tail of a comet, let the vortex pull my weight, push the seatback a little lower, watch light bend in the blower.

Demonics    Super Bee    "...in my 383 Super Bee... ...she's so fine '69..

I've never seen that and I think it will be stuck in my head for a very long time to come. Thanks...I think.
