Fast pace day to day
It's the only thing that keeps me sane
Blacktop beneath my wheels
Blue moon rising above the heels

Put it in gear and put the pedal dawn
And I won't stop 'til the tank runs out

Turning the ignition, rewing my engine
Tearing up the highway of my life
Grinding up my gearbox, skipping all the pit stops
Blazing right by red traffic lights

See, some folks like the slow lane...
Me?
I just need the R.P.M.s
The R.P.M.s
I just need the R.P.M.s
Wow

Under the hood you can hear the sound
Of a restless heart that can't slow down
So much horsepower in my hands
Baby, try and catch me if you can
No rear view mirror and the brakes are shot
When life gets tough, we kick it up a notch

Turning the ignition, rewing up my engine
Tearing up the highway of my life
Grinding up my gearbox, skipping all the pit stops
Blazing right by red traffic lights

See, some folks like the slow lane...
Me?
I just need the R.P.M.s
The R.P.M.s
I just need the R.P.M.s
Yeah

In this crazy race of mine
There's no such thing as a finish line...

Turning the ignition,rewing up my engine
Tearing up the highway of my life
Grinding up my gearbox, skipping all the pit stops
Blazing right by red traffic lights

See, some folks like the slow lane...
Me?
I just need the R.P.M.s
The R.P.M.s
I just need the R.P.M.s

I just need the R.P.M.s
The R.P.M.s
I just need the R.P.M.s
