Текст (слова) песни: The Charlie Daniels Band - High Speed Heroes
He never had much but he saved enough To buy a souped up Chevrolet For years he drove them little dirt tracks Tryin` to make himself a name Until one night down in Gainesville When he finally found some fame It took all he had but he took the flag And a drive down victory lane
From Talladega, Alabama He`s the new man on the track Lined up next to Sterling Marlin Dale Jarrett`s two cars back And it`s gentlemen start your engines And the pace car pulls away He may not out run his heroes But he`ll prove he`s here to stay
CHORUS: Legends of the asphalt Men with nerves of steel They`ll give up everything they own Just to stay behind the wheel From a Thunderbird to a Chevrolet Who wins nobody knows They`re runnin` hard for the checkered flag They`re high speed heroes
It`s a pedal to the metal Rev up and change the gears And the sound of Sunday thunder Is sweet music to his ears There`s a pileup on the back stretch And the crowd begins to roar And his mind goes back to other days And the ones who came before There`s Richard, Dale, and Herbie, Davey, Lee, and Cale And in the second turn`s the very place Where old fireball hit the rail Dale Earnhardt took the long ride He didn`t go alone He just drove off into glory And the angels took him home
REPEAT CHORUS 2x
