The Lyrics

This song is about the fact that Nascar will not ever race at Rockingham again. It's just a shame.
Well there was a track, in Rockingham
Poor attendance and no sell outs, from the fans
It was on the tour, but in '04
NASCAR said no racing there, anymore
If you ask why this track seemed so unique
I'll give you just two words, progressive banking

Well could you build us a Rockingham
Make it look like the one we had
A mile track in a larger town
Stands goin' all the way around
Banking twenty-two degrees
Soft walls, run it early spring
And for a while they'll race there again
If you could build us a Rockingham

It's just sittin' there, with growin' weeds
Now it's not even used for, NASCAR testing
The track was bought, by ISC
But will they bring it back, no that's hard to believe
Investors if there's anyway you can
Could you bring this track back to NASCAR again

And could you build us a Rockingham
Make it look like the one we had
A mile track in a larger town
NEXTEL all the way around
Bank the back stretch at ten degrees
Put a bump entering turn three
For a while they'll race there again
If you could build us a Rockingham

Build us a Rockingham
Make it look like the one we had
A mile track and when the sun goes down
Lights runnin' all the way around
Bank the front stretch at eight degrees
Turn a lap at one, sixty-three
You'll be thanked by a million fans
If you could build us a Rockingham

Oh build us a Rockingham

I heard a guy play this song at a race one time, years ago. I think it was Darlington. How can we actually hear it now. I want to share it with my friends. 😂
