Devil's driving down the track.
|
Hell on wheels and it won't turn back.
|
Engine racing down a one way street.
|
Speed wheel chasing in a red line heat.
|
Into the blackness. Into the night.
|
Out of the tunnel. Into the light.
|
Red for danger. That's just for show.
|
Climb aboard. Come as you go.
|
|
[CHORUS:]
|
|
Hard to steer when the devil's driving.
|
Helens wheels and the brake's won't hold.
|
Hard to steer when the devil's driving.
|
Hell on wheels and the brake's won't hold.
|
|
Too smart to come she just arrived.
|
Only gave her one but she's using five.
|
Minutes of time in the usual place.
|
If I was strapped in you could sit on my place. (face)
|
The door's were locked. The windows sealed.
|
Hitting me with the jack was the devil's deal.
|
Blue light flashing as the lipstick smudge.
|
Diving for cover in a tunnel of glove.
|
|
[CHORUS.]
|
|
Something's driving me. I don't know where.
|
Something down in my cellar somewhere.
|
Noone waiting for me down the line.
|
Noone waiting for me this time.
|
|
[CHORUS:]
|
|
Knuckle Down, Stick Shift, Take it slow.
|
Easy come means easy go.
|
Lay off the gas, make it last.
|
Cuz under my hood she's blowin' fast.
|
Into the blackness. Into the night.
|
Out of the tunnel. Into the light.
|
Red for danger thats just for show.
|
Climb aboard. Come as you go.
|
|
[CHORUS.]
