Speed Lyrics

Speed lyrics

I'm tired of spinning my wheels.
I need to find a place where my heart can go
to heal.
I need to get there pretty quick.
Hey mister, what you got out on
that lot you can sell me in a pinch.
Maybe one of them souped up muscle
cars.
The kind that makes you think you're stronger than you are.
Color
don't matter, no I don't need leather seats.
All that really concerns me
is:

Speed, an' how fast will it go.
Can it get me over her
quickly.
Zero to sixty, can it outrun her memory
Yeah, what I really
need,
Is an open road,
An' a whole lot of speed.

I'd like to trade
in this old truck,
'Cause it makes me think of her and that just slows me
up.
See, it's the first place we made love, where we used to sit and
talk,
On the tailgate all night long, but now she's gone,
An' I need to
move on,
So give me:

Speed, an' how fast will it go.
Can it get me
over her quickly.
Zero to sixty, can it outrun her memory
Yeah, what I
really need,
Is an open road,
An' a whole lot of speed.

Throw me
them keys so I can put some miles between us.
Tear off that rear view
mirror, there's nothing left to see here, yeah.
Let me lean on that gas, oh
she catches up fast,
So give me:

Speed, an' how fast will it
go.
Can it get me over her quickly.
Zero to sixty, can it outrun her
memory
Yeah, what I really need,
Is an open road,
An' a whole lot of
speed.

That's what I need.
I'm tired of spinning my wheels.
I'm
tired of spinning my wheels.
