I Got a long distance call from Louisiana
She said, "oooohwee baby, wanna see my man"
I Can't wait another day
I said, "Hold on honey, I'm on my way"

It's 500 miles
From Dallas to New Orleans
Gonna let her roll just as fast as she'll go
I got a sweet thing waiting for me
This time I'll be highway flyin'
No way I'm gonna take it slow
She's my heart's desire
I got wheels of fire
I'm burnin' up the road

All the way to Baton Rouge
Well, I'm smokin' these tires like a crazy fool
Barrelin' down the interstate
Runnin' wild, attemptin' fate

It's 500 miles
From Dallas to New Orleans
Gonna let her roll just as fast as she'll go
I got a sweet thing waiting for me
This time I'll be highway flyin'
No way I'm gonna take it slow
She's my heart's desire
I got wheels of fire
I'm burnin' up the road
Engine's overheatin', but I ain't gonna stop
Well she only lives a few more blocks
Blood's pumpin' fast, and radiator's hissin'
I can almost feel the huggin' and kissin'

It's 500 miles
From Dallas to New Orleans
Gonna let her roll just as fast as she'll go
I got a sweet thing waiting for me
This time I'll be highway flyin'
No way I'm gonna take it slow
She's my heart's desire
I got wheels of fire
I'm burnin' up the road

She's my heart's desire
I got wheels of fire
I'm burnin' up the road

She's my heart's desire
I got wheels of fire
I'm burnin' up the road
