The Intimidator's Last Dance
by
Ernestine-Evelyn Lea Keenan, Adams
Daytona, Florida, what a great place
Today I'll drive the season's first race
Twenty years I've danced around this track
Never a win, a monkey on my back
I never knew what a weight that had been
Until 1998, when I got the covetous win
To Victory Lane I went, to dance atop my car
This trophy my best accomplishment by far
Today I'll race that track again
Trying my best for second win
The Intimidator, the Man in Black
Dacning my way around the racetrack
A little bump here,  a small tap there
The Intimidator,  driving with the skill so rare
I had raced my car,  right into third place
Mike and Dale Jr.,  one and two in the race
My chest full of pride and full of  joy
As I so desperately tried to help my boy
Now the Intimidator, the Man in Black
Will never again, dance around the racetrack
