Released in 1955, Berry’s song tells the story of a #hotRod race and a broken romance, the lyrics describing a man driving a V8 #Ford and chasing his unfaithful girlfriend in her #CadillacCoupeDeVille. It was released in July 1955 as a #single by #ChessRecords, of #ChicagoIllinois. Berry's first hit.
