Driving down the highway

To the same tune as I Woke Up Saturday Morning.

I was driving down the highway
highway forty four
when (insert name here) ripped a big one
that knocked me out the door
the doors were all blown open
the windows blew apart
all because of _____'s
supersonic fart!



Collected with minor variations across the US and UK since at least the 1970s. I Woke Up Saturday Morningis probably written by adults (I don't have a source on it), but this one's more likely by a kid.

  1. This would be the perfect song to sing as I head over to my second hand cars in liverpool dealership this afternoon. The best era for the best car.

    1. It is so luck to see the article today, great article, great author. I learn something new on different post everyday. It is always refreshing to read posts of other forums and learn something from them.

    2. Thank you for such a fantastic blog. Where else could anyone get that kind of info written in such a perfect way? I have a presentation that I am presently working on, and I have been on the look out for such information.
