First thieves get Henschman's booze and now Earth is swallowing up Corvette's. Is nothing sacred anymore?

As bad as it is, I'm glad it didn't get the 1983 coupe. Priceless.

Here was my response-
The devil went down to Kentucky, looking for some souls to steal
But all he found was rednecks and some cool old cars. For real.
He walked into the building and saw 8 beauties that were looking hot,
So stomped his foot and made the ground cave in, hollerin' " Boy that'll hit the spot"

In walked the janitor Johnny, he's a bit of a gearhead too.
To the devil he stares and then declares, I think I'd have a race with you.
Now you might be good at scrubbin' toilets, but give the Devil's his due,
I bet a chain of gold against a Kia Soul, cause I think I'm faster than you.

Johnny, Shine that bowtie and run your engine hard
Cause Hell's broke loose in Kentucky and the devil stole them cars
And if you win you get a fancy neck chain made of gold,
but if you lose, you're gonna have to drive a Kia Soul!!!!!
