Speed Kills

Get on the ball, boys. Let' catch that train and get on

Well, run your Chevy down the highway, doing 95

Got his V-8 engine buzzing like a hive

Gotta catch that mail train, just to stay alive

Well, he wrote his baby a letter when he was in pain

Well, he told his little baby "Don't wanna see you again"

Well, he's gotta drop that letter, gotta catch that train

Gotta beat it to the crossing before he gets to town

Got to keep that whistle humming, keep it to the ground

Gotta catch that mail train, gotta flag it down

Roll on, boy

Well, he's squealing around the bend, tracks are getting near

Well, the roaring of the engine, passing in his ear

Well, he ain't gonna make it...
