Horsepower

                                  I was born in a hurry but there wasn't any place

Nowhere fast seemed better than nowhere slow

I never really got the hang of hanging around



When you get down to it

I guess I always knew it

What it is that makes my world go round



[Chorus]

It's a matter of horsepower

For 8 seconds on miles per hour

It's the way I am and it's a fact I can't ignore

Yea, big boy legged, fuel injected

Running wild, radar detected

Man can always stand a little bit more

Horsepower



Well the view looks better from ahead than it looks behind

I've got a need to speed and I don't mean the drugs-store kind

Some people like a life that barely moves at all

I say more power to them

Then I fly right through 'em

'Til it slows down to a crawl



[Chorus]



Then I think about horsepower

For 8 seconds on miles per hour

It's the way I am and it's a fact I can't ignore

Yea, big boy legged, fuel injected

Running wild, radar detected

Man can always stand a little bit more

Horsepower
