It was a Sunday night I never will forget,
Driving down the street in my red Camaro,
As I pulled into the Seven Eleven,
The locals eyed a stranger that they did not know.

CHALLENGER he’s the new contender
And he better know
We don’t want no trouble from
The CHALLENGER in the red Camaro.

He made his move and he made his challenge
“Anybody want to put his pink on the line?”
Behind the wheel slipped the local hero
Ready set go and their engines whined.

The air was tense from the screaming metal thunder,
The challenger’s machine ate up the local hero’s
But when the dust cleared instead of his pink slip
I had the hero’s baby in my red Camaro.

CHALLENGER I’m the new contender,
CHALLENGER and you better know
CHALLENGER forget about your baby
Now she rides in my the red Camaro...
