Horsepower - Podhajski

I was born in a hurry but there wasn't any place to go Nowhere fast seemed better than nowhere slow I never really got the hang of hanging around Oh when you get down to it I guess I always knew it What it is that makes my world go round It's a matter of horsepower For eight seconds or miles per hour That's the way I am and that'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 It's a matter of horsepower For eight seconds or miles per hour That's the way I am and that'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 Then I think about horsepower For eight seconds or 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 I've been thinkin' about horsepower For eight seconds or 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

Listen closely to me now my darlin' girl There's one who's out to have you An jus his breath will burn your curls Don't you fret You needn't bother Don't you fret Here comes the father yet Whatcha doin' up atop my roof Creepin' cross them shingles You 'bout scared me half to death girl What's your name Ruthie Lingle Oye I heard your talkin' That little Jesus geek Need a good ass good ass clockin' Oye I seen your mockin' Don't you dare boy - think my Lord Hath done forgotten No I beseech thee Lord clear my head Before once again I scar the soul of that girl in my bed O Lord clear my bed For once again I scar the soul of that girl in my head
