Cut yourself off from the pack Flat out against the freaks There's nothin' they won't try Hot head, heavy foot they meet It's been so many days And we tried every way We knew of a master plan So put the keys in my hand In my hand In my hand At a time when you would think All of a sudden it hits the street As they're swappin' the big block Slow motion, time has stopped El Camaro never dies Look closely, you'll know why Outrun 'em, you know we can So put the keys in my hand In my hand In my hand Hell on wheels is no big deal Roads burnin' all across the land Hell on wheels is no big deal Takin' 'em out of the master plan Hell on wheels is no big deal Roads burnin' all across the land Hell on wheels is no big deal An idea whose time has come A land ride for everyone Been like this for years on end We'll let you know where and when As he split the road in two Underdrive we never knew Outrun 'em, you know we can So put the keys in my hand In my hand In my hand Hell on wheels is no big deal Roads burnin' all across the land Hell on wheels is no big deal Takin' 'em out of the master plan Hell on wheels is no big deal Roads burnin' all across the land Hell on wheels is no big deal In my hand In my hand In my hand In my hand In my hand In my hand In my hand In my hand

Keep it centered - keep it low Keep it runnin' - let's go Watch it climb - on its own The more we see - the more we know We know Four wheels and a lift What we gave - we get The convoy was down There was nothing left - no one around We strapped ourselves in tight We were the first - and we're alright It's movin' way too fast Now shut the doors - and hit the gas Chorus: Soo over the edge They said X2 I lift my head I soon realized I remembered - back in time What was rollin' along Movin' circle - on and on An image so small We heard the word - we heard the call Let's keep our story straight It doesn't matter - it's way too late Chorus X2 Repeat first The more we see We know the more we know X4

Break - One Nine Got your boots on Gearjammer set Boogey Van so far How do you read me? Three's and Eight's high Some kind of joyride Double-nickel right by In here - everything I need Style - built for speed Mother Trucker runnin' low Four wheels - overflow Others passin' by Still movin' down the line So say~ the written word Two down - now the Third The greatest thing I've seen Do y'all know what I mean? Meeting Twenty was the plan Me and my Boogey Van Like most - Chevys coast to coast People start to ride Dream machine burnin' wides Layin' a furious yard It smokes awful far Highback chair is low Rollin' faster off they go Tires roll flare to flare Custom shine everywhere One-fifty I don't care Half-way cross the land Me and my Boogey Van Movin' on down the line Here we go one more time

The universal eyes tell me where to go White line movin' slow Million miles an hour headfirst and alone All I got is tuck and roll All through my head It's happenin' over again Under forty over is U.F.O Hell bent stacked in rows The galaxy is lined with hundreds more Small town you bet we're sure All through my head It's happenin' over again As the day is long They keep movin' on Laughin' at the notion of a signal light Knew we'd gone too far No one knew what happened but it seemed alright We quickly jumped in the car All through my head It's happenin' over again King of the Road says you move too slow!

Takin' the next run Rollin' right by Takin' the last one Chorus: So look the other way That's what we heard 'em say Blue Til.e Fever It's brand new-like I told you No one's seen - the things that they do Hear the words - and know what they know The crowd splits - wherever they go It's all brand new - just like I told you X2 A grind back at the far end Signs posted for all of you Things were alright just when Now here's what we're gonna do Chorus

Days we roll 20 years - all 4 gears Wherever they go They go Back for more They know what's in store The chrome it screams - whatever the speed Wherever they go They go Chorus: Flat out for days gone by No one knows how and why Lawless it seems - on by'they scream Clear the Road There's no reason why Stoppin' them don't even try Lawless it seems - on by they scream Clear the Road Side by side In pairs they ride Across the road - makin' it known Wherever they go They go Chorus

Hundreds Thousands Millions Will appear He struggles to signal | So says the weird beard And he rides around For a chance to see it all Uncertain and unknowing We're sure he will fall So he quickly takes the high road To where is not known He will return Down a slide to his throne And he says He says: "Weird Beard!" 5 mile 6 mile 7 mile Wide As he sped toward the mountain An easy place to hide So he rides around For a chance to see it all Uncertain and unknowing We're sure he will fall So he quickly takes the high road To where is not known He will return Down a slide to his throne And he says He says: "Weird Beard!" And he rides around For a chance to see it all Uncertain and unknowing We're sure he will fall So he quickly takes the high road To where is not known He will return Down a slide

And since I got This ride Money spent So far so good Down low Off we went This time At last The rules One chance The crowd They scream For more Oh, man Drive, drive, drive Drive, drive, drive Last place Last show Last race I know Last place Last show Last race I know So back On course In last Full pull We looked On through And pushed Man, oh man The time It stops We're clear Redline So left behind For good One more time Drive, drive, drive Drive, drive, drive Last place Last show Last race I know Last place Last show Last race I know ... Drive, drive, drive Drive, drive, drive

Built on a huge fort - that much I know Maybe a good deal - hard to find Location unknown - again this time Chorus: keepin' the road clear Hang at the back Old miss river We see at last Invisible Has seen it fall And 10 times over That ain't all Eliminate - and move on through Learn from the master - like we knew Early morning hour - time drew close Over the top - that much we know Chorus Again they roll on and on Hotdoggin' x4

Nobody ever said that life was free Sink swim go down with the ship But use your freedom of choice I say it again in the land of the free Use your freedom of choice In ancient rome there was a poem about a dog who had two bones He picked at one he licked the other He went in circles till he dropped dead Freedom of choice is what you got Freedom of choice is what You want then if you got it you don't want it Seems to be the rule of thumb Don't be tricked by what you see You got two ways to go
