Free Ride in the Fast Lane
|
|
Where I come from in Kentucky
|
There was an old grey headed man
|
The day I left he said, Sonny
|
Well, I know you got some big plans
|
|
Round here we all think you're something
|
But out there that doesn't mean nothing
|
There ain't no free ride in the fast lane
|
For every ounce of pleasure
|
There's a pound of pain
|
You better love it if you play this game
|
Cause there ain't no free ride in the fast lane
|
|
I made my way to the city
|
And met a long-legged beauty queen
|
I thought she'd always be with me
|
But she played me like a slot machine
|
Soon as I ran outta money
|
She said you're real cute but honey
|
|
There ain't no free ride in the fast lane
|
For every ounce of pleasure there's a pound of pain
|
You better love it if you play this game
|
Cause there ain't no free ride in the fast lane
|
|
Woke up in Dallas this morning with the mg flu again
|
Another party waiting in Houston
|
With 10,000 of our closest friends
|
Well, I ain't slowing down and I ain't gonna sleep
|
Man, cause I got a promise to keep
|
Keep baby
|
|
One thing in this life is certain
|
You're either dead or you're hurting
|
There ain't no free ride in the fast lane
|
For every ounce of pleasure there's a pound of pain
|
Hey, you better love it if you play this game
|
Cause there ain't no free ride in the fast lane
|
|
Jump in and hold on
|
Cause we ain't playing no games
|
Jump in sit down shut up and hold on
|
Kick them mules and let's get the hell outta here
|
