I'm travelin' down the road and I'm flirtin' with disaster

I got the pedal to the floor and my life is runnin' faster

I'm out of money, out of hope, it looks like self destruction

Well, how much more can we take with all of this corruption

We're flirtin' with disaster, ya'll know what I mean

And the way we run our lives it makes no sense to me

I don't know about yourself or what you want to be, yeah

I'm travelin' down that lonesome road

Yeah, I've tried to turn my head away

Feel 'bout the same most every day

You know what I'm talkin' about, baby

Speedin' down the fast lane from home and we're playin' from town to town

The boys and I have been burnin' it up, can't seem to slow us down

We got the pedal to the floor our lives are runnin' faster

We got our sights set straight ahead, but I ain't sure what we're after

We're flirtin' with disaster, ya'll damn sure know what I mean

I don't know about yourself or what you plan to be, yeah

Yeah, we're travelin' down that lonesome road

Though I try to turn my head away

And you are too, baby

It ain't for everybody

Ah, come on, man

Flirtin' with disaster, babe, ya'll know what I mean

I don't know about yourself or what you plan to be

Yeah, we're travelin' down this lonesome road

Don't try to turn my head away, bah, bop-bop, yeah
