I've spent my life in a real fast car
Nobody thought i would come this far
From the outside, people looking in
I get around in a real fast time
Out on my own when i cross the line
From the outside, people look- people looking in

Out there on the track
Fighting with the pack

I like it fast and i love to fly
I need to speed just to qualify
It ain't so easy, ain't no looking back
You're screaming forward to the first chicane
Three cars looking for the inside lane
We're all together, someone must, someone must give way

Out there on the track
Fighting with the pack

( parfitt / edwards )

You get addicted to the power, the money and the fame
You need everybody to remember your name

With the heart of a lion in a female frame
Can you take the pressure can you take the pain

Driving to glory, driving to fame
Driving to glory, driving to fame

Sometimes your body aches so much you think it's gonna crack
When your motor's running there's no time for looking back

There isn't anything that anyone could ever say
Change their mind but if they try you push them all away

Driving to glory, driving to fame
Driving to glory, driving to fame

You get addicted to the power, the money and the fame
You need everybody to remember your name

When the pushing comes to shoving are you ready for the test
Faster, meaner, better than the rest

Driving to glory, driving to fame
Driving to glory, driving to fame

Driving to glory, driving to glory

I still remember, it was autumn and the moon was shining
Our '60 cadillac was rolling through nebraska whining
Doing a hundred-twenty, man the fields was bending over
Hauling up for the mountains knowing we was traveling further
All our fires were blazing and the spinning wheels were turning, turning
Had my girl beside me, brother, brother, she was burning, burning

I walked up back to speak to this southern funky school teacher
She had a lot of something heavy but we couldn't reach her
We told her that we needed something that would get us going
She pulled out all she had and laid it on the counter showing
All i had to do was lay my money down and pick it up
The cop came busting in and then we lit out in a pickup truck

Go! get out of denver, better go, go
Get out of denver, better go
Get out of denver, better go, go
Get out of denver
'cos you look just like a commie and you might just be a member
Better get out of denver, better get out of denver

Well, red lights were flashing and the sirens they were screaming
We had to pinch each other just to see if we were dreaming
Made it to lovely pass in under less than half an hour
Lord, it started drizzling and it turned into a thundershower

Well, red lights were flashing and the sirens they were screaming
We had to pinch each other just to see if we were dreaming
Made it to lovely pass in under less than half an hour
Lord, it started drizzling and it turned into a thundershower

The rain was driving but the caddy kept on burning rubber
We kept on driving 'til we ran into some fog cover
We couldn't see a thing but somehow we just kept on going
We kept on driving all night long and then into the morning
Morning fog had lifted when we looked to see where we was at
We're staring at a colorado state policeman trooper cat

Go! get out of denver, better go, go
Get out of denver, better go
Get out of denver, better go
Get out of denver
'cos you look just like a commie and you might just be a member
Better get out of denver, better get out of denver
Better go! get out of denver, better go
Get out of denver, better go
Get out of denver, better go
Get out of denver
'cos you look just like a commie and you might just be a member
Better get out of denver, better get out of denver
Better go!

Get out of denver, better get out of denver
Better get out of denver, better....go!
Get out of denver , better go, get out of denver
Better get out, get out, get out
Get out of denver
Better go, get out of denver better go get out of denver
Better, better
Get out, get out, get out, get out, get out

Spent a long, long evening
In a low down honky-tonk bar
Pulled a low down lady
With a long black honky-tonk car
I asked no questions
I got no lies
A one off winner
I didn't want any ties
And i knew it wasn't right
Well, everybody has to sometimes break the rules

Took me down on the highway
Doing too many miles an hour
By the way she motored
Thought we might have made the eiffel tower
She stopped the motor
By her own front door
I knew she'd done it
So many times before
But i was off of the floor
But, everybody has to sometimes break the rules

I woke up next moring
Feeling kind of up and down
'cos i did not know
If i was in or out of the town
Then i saw the face
From the night before
My purse was empty
Lying there on the floor
But like i told you before
That, everybody has to sometimes break the rules

I spend a low down evening
Sitting high on a honky-tonk stool
And i spent my money
Like a low down honky-tonk fool
But everybody has to sometimes break the rules
Well, everybody has to sometimes break the rules
Yes, everybody has to sometimes break the rules

Famous in the last century
The last century
Famous in the last century

Night and day
Fire and rain
Jailhouse rock and penny lane
All the laughter and the pain

Of the last century
The last century
Famous in the last century

Famous in the last century
The last century

Famous in the last century
The last century

I felt in need of some loving
So i sat down on a wall
I tried to find a reason for living
But i couldn't find a reason at all
So i owned up to my maker
And i started to say a prayer
I waited for an answer
But there wasn't anybody there

I thought there should have been someone
But i wasn't quite sure who
It finished me to find there was no-one
That i could take my troubles to
So i knelt down by my bedside
And i started to say a prayer
It was when i asked for nothing
I could feel that there was somebody there

I'm looking still, but it's easy
'cos i know which way to go
It doesn't matter how long it takes me
'cos there's someone there to help me who knows
All the things that i am after
All the loving that i want to share
It's so hard but i don't mind
'cos there really is somebody there

I felt in need of some loving
So i sat down on a wall
I tried to find a reason for living
But i couldn't find a reason at all
So i owned up to my maker
And i started to say a prayer
I waited for an answer
But there wasn't anybody there

Well the bride looked a picture in the gown that her momma wore
When she was married herself nearly twenty-seven years before
They had to change the style a little but it looked just fine
Stayed up all night but they got it finished just in time

Now on the arm of her daddy she's walking down the aisle
And she catches my eye and she gives me a secret smile
Maybe it's too old-fashioned but we were once close friends
But the way she looks today she never could have then

Well i can see her now in her tight blue jeans
Pumping all her money in the record machine
Spinning like a top, you shoulda seen her go
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll

Now a proud daddy only wanna give his little girl the best
So he put down a grand on a cosy little lovers nest
You could have called the reception an unqualified success
And a posh hotel for a hundred and fifty guests

Well i can see her now drinking with the boys
Breaking their hearts like they were toys
She used to love to party, she used to love to go
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll

Well i can see her now with her headphones on
Jumping up and down to her favourite song
She used to love to party, she used to wanna go
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll

Take a look at the bridegroom smiling pleased as pie
Shaking hands all round with a glassy look in his eye
He got a real good job and the shirt and tie is nice
But i remember a time when she would never even look at him twice

Well i can see her now drinking with the boys
Breaking their hearts like they were toys
She used to love to party, she used to love to go
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
I knew the bride when she used to rock and roll
