[Verse 1]
Rough and ready rider in a supersonic sound machine
Rock and roll survivor, chrome pipes between your knees
Running all the red lights, riding the white lines
You're gonna make a dead stop, but you just can't see the signs

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, you'll never win the race
But you can't give up the chase

[Chorus]
Death alley driver living at high speed
Death alley driver, yeah
Death alley driver, who knows what you need
Death alley driver

[Verse 2]
One hundred twenty five, smokin' on the turns
Always on the hit-and-run, but you never learn
Running from the man, and you're running from yourself
Another dirty angel heading straight to hell

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, you'll never win the race
But you won't give up the chase
[Chorus]
Death alley driver, life in overdrive
Death alley driver, yeah
Death alley driver, ride to stay alive
Death alley driver
Let's go!

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
Red lights in the mirror, danger on the bend
Got to take a detour 'cause a road block's up ahead
Takes you on the corner with a wave of his hand
Death is in the back seat of a big old black sedan

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, you'll never win the race
As you turn and see his face

[Chorus]
Death alley driver moving for the kill
Death alley driver, yeah
Death alley driver, time is standing still
Death alley driver always on the run
'Cause you're a death alley driver, love the way it feels
Death alley driver, yeah
Death alley driver, hell on wheels
Death alley driver, oh
