Real Gone

Template:Infobox SongReal Gone is the first track on the Cars soundtrack. It is performed by Sheryl Crow. It played in the beginning of the movie, starting from when Lightning McQueen came out of his trailer, and ended right before Chick Hicks bumped Lightning into the field, causing him to fall behind to last place.

Lyrics

I'm American made, Bud Light, Chevrolet

My momma taught me wrong from right

I was born in the south, sometimes I have a big mouth

When I see something that I don't like

I gotta say it

Well we've been driving this road for a mighty long time

Paying no mind to the signs

Well this neighborhood's changed, it's all been rearranged

We left those days somewhere behind

Slow down, you gonna crash

Baby you were screaming it's a blast, blast, blast

Look out babe you got your blinders on

Everybody's lookin' for a way to get real gone Real gone, real gone

There's a new cat in town, he's got high paid friends

Thinks he's gonna change history

You think you know him so well, yeah you think he's so swell

But he's just perpetuatin' prophecy Come on now

Slow down, you're gonna crash Baby, you were screamin',

it's a blast, blast, blast

Look out, baby you got your blinders on

Everybody's lookin' for a way To get real gone, real gone

Real gone, real gone, uh

Well, you can say what you want but you can't say it 'round here

'Cause they'll catch you and give you a whippin'

Well, I believe I was right when I said you were wrong

You didn't like the sound of that Now did ya? Slow down, you're gonna crash

Baby, you were screamin', it's a blast, blast, blast

Look out, you got your blinders on

Everybody's lookin' for a way to get real gone

Well, here I come and I'm so not scared Got my pedal to the metal, got my hands in the air

Well, look out, you take your blinders off Everybody's lookin' for a way to get real gone

Real gone, real gone, ooh! Real gone, real gone
