High Speed Heros
ever had much saved enough to buy a suped-up Chevrolet
For years, he drove them little dirt tracks to make himself a name
Til' one night down in Gainesville
He finally found some fame
he took all, but he had but took the flag for a drive down victory lane
Talladega, Alabama
He's a new man on the track
Lined up next to Sterling Marlin, with Dale Jarrett's two cars back
Then it's 'Gentlemen, Start Your Engines'
And the pace car pulls away
he may not outrun his heroes, but he'll prove he's here to stay
Legends of the asphalt
Men with nerves of steel
they'll give up everything they own just to stay behind the wheel
From a Thunderbird to a Chevrolet
Who wins? Nobody knows
They're running hard for that checkered flag
They're high speed heros
High speed heros
Then it's petal to the metal
rev it up, change gears
and the sound of Sunday thunder
is sweet music to his ears
there's a pileup on the backstretch,
and the crowd begins to roar
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
And his mind goes back to the dirt days
who came before.
There's Richard
Darrell
Hermie
Davey
Lee
Cale
And the second turn where old 'Fireball' hit the rail
Dale Earnhardt took the long ride
he didn't go alone
he just drove off into glory
and the angels took him home
Legends of the asphalt
Men with nerves of steel
they'll give up everything they own just to stay behind the wheel
From a Thunderbird to a Chevrolet
Who wins? Nobody knows
They're running hard for that checkered flag
They're high speed heros.
High speed heros
High speed heros
High speed heros
