When I was just a boy,
Maybe 5 years old
I saw my first night race
In the freezing cold,
Wrapped up in moving blankets
In the back of that ford
I remember thinking
'Y'all, I won't be doing this anymore.'
Fast forward a couple years
Down to Rockingham
18 years old, racin' like my old man
When you're living it up with no restrictor plate,
Ain't it crazy how this life's kinda like a nascar race?
We goin'
Round and Round in a circle
Southern boys laying on the gas
Make the world go round
Like a smooth baby blue road runner
All black chevy with a 3 on the side What y'all know about that?
What y'all know about that?
Watching goodyears roll by
Watching good years roll by
If you think its cutting close,
Stay where you at
Call the crew chief up
Tell 'em one more lap
All them boys out there are crazy,
Let 'em run outta gas
Cause the tank we're running on
Ain't the one in the back!
Oh, 5 laps in once the car gets hot,
Ya better pull that lever
If you wanna drop your shot.
Drive that girl till your ole heart stops
Ya never know this lap might be the last one you've got We goin'
Round and Round in a circle
Southern boys laying on the gas
Make the world go round
Like a smooth baby blue road runner
All black chevy with a 3 on the side What y'all know about that?
What y'all know about that?
Watching goodyears roll by
Watching good years roll by
Ooooo, naw there aint no right turns and ya cant go back
Ooooo, one day there gonna wave that Ole Checkered Flag yeah
Round and Round in a circle
Southern boys laying on the gas
Make the world go round
Like a smooth baby blue road runner
All black chevy with a 3 on the side What y'all know about that?
What y'all know about that?
Watching goodyears roll by
Watching good years roll by
Watching good years roll by
