Lyrics
Nobody gonna take my car I'm gonna race it to the ground Nobody gonna beat my car It's gonna break the speed of sound Oooh it's a killing machine It's got everything Like a driving power big fat tires And everything
I love it and I need it I bleed it Yeah it's a wild hurricane Alright hold tight I'm a highway star
Nobody gonna take my girl I'm gonna keep her to the end Nobody gonna have my girl She stays close on every bend Oooh she's a killing machine She's got everything Like a moving mouth body control And everything
I love her I need her I seed her Yeah she turns me on Alright hold on tight I'm a highway star
Nobody gonna take my head I got speed inside my brain Nobody gonna steal my head Now that I'm on the road again Oooh I'm in heaven again I've got everything Like a moving ground an open road And everything
I love it and I need it I seed it Eight cylinders all mine Alright hold on tight I'm a highway star
Nobody gonna take my car I'm gonna race it to the ground Nobody gonna beat my car It's gonna break the speed of sound Oooh it's a killing machine It's got everything Like a driving power big fat tires And everything
I love it and I need it I bleed it Yeah it's a mad hurricane Alright hold on tight I'm a highway star I'm a highway star I'm a highway star
