My Kingdom for a Car
[Verse 1]
I've found my freedom
Here and I been flying down that highway of gold
My shirtsleeves are rolled
My Colt 45 is cold
I go fast 'til I'm going faster
[Chorus]
Look how far we've come, look how far
A car, a car, my kingdom for a car
[Verse 2]
How I love the highway
Picks me up and takes me wherever I please
I race through the trees
Bring space to her knees
I am master of all that's flying by me
[Chorus]
Look how far we've come, look how far
A car, a car, my kingdom for a car
[Piano solo]
[Chorus]
Oh, look how far we've come, look how far
A car, a car, my kingdom for a car
[Verse 3]
Take me to tomorrow
Let me go on racing with the wind in my hair
There's smoke in the air
But I do not care
If you want me you will have to pass me
[Chorus]
Look how far we've come, look how far
A car, a car, my kingdom for a car
[Verse 4]
Come to me baby
We will leave this town it was not fit for a man
We'll find a new land
But the traffic is jammed
I went far but it's the time for walking
[Chorus]
Look how far we've come, look how far
A car, a car, my kingdom for a car
[Outro]
A car, a car, my kingdom for a car
A car, a car, my kingdom for a car
A car, a car, my kingdom for a car
