| 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 8 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 8 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 8 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 8 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
