“No-Go Showboat” is the tenth track on “Little Deuce Coupe.” A “No-Go Showboat” refers to a car that is valued for its looks and (potentially) luxury features, not for its performance in competitive racing.
[Chorus 1]
No-go showboat no-go showboat (no-go showboat)
[Verse 1]
Well, I got a wild custom that wins every show
But it's a no-go showboat (no-go showboat)
Yeah, but everybody knows that she just don't go
She's my no-go showboat (no-go showboat)
White wall slicks with racing mags
She's just for looks, man, not for drags
[Chorus 2]
'Cause it's a no-go showboat (no-go showboat)
No-go showboat no-go showboat (no-go showboat)
[Verse 2]
Well, the guys all dig it they've got no complaints
About my no-go showboat (no-go showboat)
And the chicks really flip for that metal flake paint
On my no-go showboat (no-go showboat)
It really rates fine in the custom clan
With hand-formed panels, tuck-and-roll rear pan
[Chorus 2]
'Cause it's a no-go showboat (no-go showboat)
No-go showboat no-go showboat (no-go showboat)
[Verse 3]
Well, the engine compartment's filled with all chrome goodies
In my no-go showboat (no-go showboat)
Yeah, but everybody takes me, even old Ford woodies
In my no-go showboat (no-go showboat)
When it comes to speed, man, I'm just out of luck
I'm even shut down by the ice cream truck
[Chorus 2]
'Cause it's a no-go showboat (no-go showboat)
No-go showboat no-go showboat (no-go showboat)
No-go showboat no-go showboat (no-go showboat)
No-go showboat no-go showboat (no-go showboat)
