    "Hot Rod Lincoln" was recorded in 1955 as an answer song to "Hot Rod Race", a 1951 hit for Arkie Shibley and his Mountain Dew Boys.

    Hot Rod Race tells the story of a late-model Ford and Mercury who end up racing along the highway, neither driver gaining an advantage, and staying "neck and neck" until they are both overtaken (to their amazement) by a kid in "a hopped-up Model A".

    This list is comprised of songs about all types of cars, including hot rods, and includes vocal and instrumental recordings about automobile-related driving. Songs about trucks, motorcycles or buses do not qualify for the list. Rankings are based on the popularity of each song during the period of 1950 through 1969, but songs about cars, or with car names in the titles, are given more emphasis than songs where cars figure less prominently in the lyrics.
    Chuck Berry is the king of the car songs with six on the list, plus three others as songwriter. Jan Berry claims the runner-up spot, appearing on five songs (four with Dean Torrence and one with Arnie Ginsburg).
