There was a sports car on the road (on the road) I thought I knew the fellow that drove That little sports car was slippery as an oyster Following it was like riding on a rollercoaster (rollercoaster) Around the corners and over the bumps Every minute, faster and faster, my heart thumped (my heart thumped) Well, finally he stopped to get some gas If I was to catch up I had to move fast (to move fast) I stepped on the gas and just made the corner Wow, I was almost a goner (goner) When I got there he was gone I don't know where I went wrong (I went wrong) The time went fast, it was late I knew I had no time to waste (time to waste) I turned around and headed for home I learned my lesson never to roam I learned my lesson never to roam Never to roam Never to roam Never to roam Never to roam
