[Verse 1]
I'm American made, apple pie, Chevrolet
My mama taught me wrong from right
I was born in the South
Sometimes I have a big mouth
When I see something that I don't like
I gotta say it

Well, we've been driving this road for a mighty long time
Paying no mind to the signs
Well, this neighborhood's changed
It's all been rearranged
We left that team somewhere behind

[Chorus]
Slow down, you're gonna crash
Baby you're a-screaming it's a blast, blast, blast
Look out babe, you've got your blinders on
Everybody's looking for a way to get real gone
Real gone
Real gone

[Verse 2]
But there's a new cat in town
He's got high-faded friends
Thinks he's gonna change history
You think you know him so well
Yeah you think he's so swell
But he's just perpetuatin' prophecy
[Chorus]
(C' mon now)
Slow down, you're gonna crash
Baby, you're a-screaming it's a blast, blast, blast
Look out, you've got your blinders on
Everybody's looking for a way
To get real gone (uh uh uh uh)
Real gone (uh uh uh uh)
Real gone (uh uh uh uh)
Real gone (uh uh uh uh)
Uh

[Verse 3]
Well you can say what you want
But you can't say it 'round here
Cause they'll catch you and give you a whippin'
Well, I believe I was right when I said you were wrong
You didn't like the sound of that
Now, did ya?

[Chorus]
Slow down, you're gonna crash
Baby, you're a-screaming it's a blast, blast, blast
Look out, you've got your blinders on
Everybody's looking for a way to get real gone
Well here I come and I'm so not scared
Got my pedal to the metal, got my hands in the air
Look out, you take your blinders off
Everybody's looking for a way to get real gone
Real gone
Real gone
Ooh
Real gone
Real gone
