I'm travelin' down the road,
I'm flirtin' with disaster.
I've got the pedal to the floor,
My life is running faster.
I'm out of money, out of hope,
It looks like self destruction.
Well how much more can we take,
With all of this corruption.
We're flirtin' with disaster,
Ya'll know what I mean.
And the way we run our lives,
It makes no sense to me.
I don't know about yourself or,
What you want to be - YEAH.
When we gamble with our time,
We choose our destiny.
I'm travelin' down that lonesome road.
Feel like I'm dragging a heavy load.
Yeah, I've tried to turn my head away,
Feels about the same most every day.
And you know what I'm talkin' about, babe?
Speeding down the fast lane,
Oh honey we're playin' from town to town.
The boys and I have been burnin' it up,
Can't seem to slow it down.
We've got the pedal to the floor,
Our lives are runnin' faster,
Got our sights set straight ahead,
But I ain't sure what we're after.
Flirtin' with disaster,y'all
Damn sure know what I mean.
You know the way we run our lives,
It makes no sense to me.
I don't know about yourself or
What you plan to be - Yea!!
When we gamble with our time,
We choose our destiny.
Yeah, we're travelin' down that lonesome road.
Feel like I'm dragging a heavy load.
Don't try to turn my head away,
I'm flirtin' with disaster every day.
And you are, too, baby
It ain't for everybody
Now come on, babe!
Flirtin' with disaster, babe
Ya'll know what I mean.
You know the way we run our lives,
It makes no sense to me.
I don't know about yourself or,
What you plan to be.
When we gamble with our time,
We choose our destiny.
Yeah, we're travelin' down this lonesome road.
Feel like I'm dragging a heavy load.
Don't try to turn my head away,
Ba-bop bop bop - Yeah!
I'm flirtin' with disaster every day.
I'm flirtin' with disaster.
I've got the pedal to the floor,
My life is running faster.
I'm out of money, out of hope,
It looks like self destruction.
Well how much more can we take,
With all of this corruption.
We're flirtin' with disaster,
Ya'll know what I mean.
And the way we run our lives,
It makes no sense to me.
I don't know about yourself or,
What you want to be - YEAH.
When we gamble with our time,
We choose our destiny.
I'm travelin' down that lonesome road.
Feel like I'm dragging a heavy load.
Yeah, I've tried to turn my head away,
Feels about the same most every day.
And you know what I'm talkin' about, babe?
Speeding down the fast lane,
