Salmo - Driveway Lyrics

Speaking of racing, have you ever been in a drag race?
What are you kidding me?
I just thought I'd ask
No, Jim races in the tradition, you might say
Real racing cars, real tracks
How fast will your car go?
Oh, in honest miles an hour, clocked 160/170
You've won a few races, haven't you?
Oh, one or two
Where?
I showed pretty good at Palm Springs
I ran at Bakersfield
Jimmy
We probably have a great many young people watching our show tonight
And, for their benefit, I'd like your opinion about fast driving on the highway
Do you think it's a good idea?

Good point
I used to fly around quite a bit, I took a lot of unnecessary chances on the highways
And I started racing and
Now, I drive on the highways and I'm, uh, extra cautious
'Cause no one knows what they're doing half the time
You don't know what this guy's going to do or that one
On the track, there a lot of men who spend a lot of time in developing rules
Ways of safety and, uh, I find myself being very cautious on the highway
I don't have the urge to speed on the highway
People say racing is dangerous
But I'll take my chances on the track any day than on the highway
Alright, gig, I better take off

Wait a minute Jimmy, one more question
Do you have any special advice for the young people who drive?
Take it easy driving
The life you save might be mine
