Need For Speed

Lyrics

When I was a kid it was my dream to be out there.
Down on the ole dirt track.
I had to wait till the weekend but it never comes by so fast.
So I took my sixty seven Shelby Mustang for a spin and it gave me a feeling that I have never felt.
An adrenaline that flows through my veins.

It's a need for speed.
One thousand horsepower flowing through me.
It's a thrill of the feel, the chase, the adrenaline.
Being a racer is what I wanted to be.
Racing on the road I'll leave everyone behind.
Cause I got a need for speed and I'll take that checkered flag.

Now I race to be the best driver around.
Driving faster I'm flying down the highway to Daytona in a Corvette with eight hundred horses under the hood and a supercharger that gives it the boost of speed to fuel the adrenaline rushing through my veins.

It's a need for speed.
I gotta take a chance to race.
On the track, out on the streets it doesn't matter.
I'll race till the rising sun.
Cause I have the need.
The need for speed.

(Guitar solo)

If I had to crash and burn to get to where I have to be that's a chance I'll take.
To take the wheel and drive faster than ever I'll burn rubber down to the ground.
I will take on the world of racing and push it to the limit.
To reach my dreams of being a racer. I'll put the pedal to the floor.
Two hundred miles an hour and I won't take my foot off the gas.
Cause I got hot wheels of steel racing to Daytona Beach.

My need for speed will tear up the highway to oblivion and leave the world behind to be the first to cross that finish line.
It's my need for speed that gives me the energy to be the fastest driver and drive the fastest cars around the world.
I will disappear from the competition's eyes with the power of the speed.
It is a feeling that I have long awaited for.
The thrill, the chase, the adrenaline of going fast forevermore.
I will climb behind the wheel ready to race from coast to coast on the road to victory with the need for speed.

Oh yeah!
Get in gear!
