"Gentlemen, start your engines!" |
|
{spoken by President Ronald Reagan} |
|
|
|
From
The California Speedway |
|
To Daytona U. S. A.
|
|
Turnin' laps on high-banked
ovals |
|
Burnin' rubber all the way |
|
|
|
'Most my life 'bout all I've
lived for's |
|
Been to cruise down Vict'ry Lane |
|
Coast into The Winner's Circle |
|
Toast 'n' show'r with brut
champagne
|
|
|
|
I've got five hundred miles to race for glory |
|
Five hundred miles to chase my dream |
|
I've got five hundred miles to race for glory |
|
For my faithful fans and loyal racin' team |
|
|
|
Popped a tire at Talladega |
|
Dropped my gearbox
at The Glen |
|
I've blown engines and thrown tantrums |
|
That's
the way it was back when |
|
|
|
Pray that hard luck's far behind me |
|
With God's
help I still survive |
|
For another shot at winnin' |
|
Lord it's great to
be alive! |
|
|
|
I've got five hundred miles to race for glory |
|
Five hundred miles to chase my dream |
|
I've got five hundred miles to race for glory |
|
For my faithful fans and loyal racin' team |
|
