about

The band kicks it into high gear on this one for a hard rockin', road trippin', foot-stompin' return to 60's rock n' roll for just a few minutes.

lyrics

SPEEDIN' AGAIN

Aint no truck stop parking lot can hold me tonight
I got a full tank of gasoline and eyes open wide…

They’re playin’ Stones on the radio on DJ Tommy’s midnight show
Ain’t nothing on these winding roads can stop me now from making it home, home

Don’t wanna be no statistic on the highway
But I’ve been missing my baby now for nine long days
And I’ll be damned if I’ma let it be ten
I know better but I’m speedin’ again

When I last saw my man he told me “baby don’t speed,
I need you back in my arms, safely all in one piece”

And when he tells me how he loves me so, I throw the hammer down far as it can go
Ain’t nothing on these winding roads can stop me now from making it home, home, home

-Chorus-

Ahhhhh, ahhhhh,
ahhhhhh, ahhhhh,
ahhhhhh, ahhhhhhh…..

I’m breakin’ land speed records every mile that goes by,
You’d think there’s money at the finish line the way that I drive

But they got Stones on the radio, only six more hours left to go
Aint nothing on these winding roads can stop me now from making it home, home, home, home

-Chorus-
