Horsepower - Chris Ledoux

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
