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
