You hit the throttle of my heart

Kicked it into high gear

What’s a poor boy to do

We went flyin’ off the rails

At ninety miles an hour, I want to get

Back on the right track with you



I want to go down in the bumpy country

Curvy river road so lazy and fine

Chase the sunset up the ridge

See the sky fade and blend

We’ll melt together in the wind



You hit the throttle of my heart

Kicked it into high gear

What’s a poor boy to do

We went flyin’ off the rails

At ninety miles an hour, I want to get

Back on the right track with you



Step on the ledge, live on the edge

Walk through some streams, bring back some dreams

Grow some love everyday

Sow some seed, make some hay

We’ll taste the fruit we have raised



You hit the throttle of my heart

Kicked it into high gear

What’s a poor boy to do

We went flyin’ off the rails

At ninety miles an hour, I want to get

Back on the right track with you
