pedal to the metal
pedal to the metal
30 down and 200 more miles to go
don't go too fast don't get too crazy
we're full of gas and I'm full of joe
Baltimore PHILADELPHIA WILMINGTON
NEW JERSEY TURNPIKE
oh baby you know what I like
me and the Big Bopper on the golden oldies
fortune favors the only boldies
here we go baby passing angels
blowing off devils there's only one Holland Tunnel
I'm gonna make it in four hours
then I'll have a nice hot shower
and lay there in your arms so warm
watch the news and eat popcorn
cause I'm the night driver that's my job
no need to sleep no need to rob
threading the needle between road signs
keep me from evil and I'll do just fine
night rider night rider
call me the highway spider
night rider night rider
I am a survivor
I love the way this one plays out, certainly going "pedal to the metal."
Make that run a couple of times myself. Stopped on the New Jersey Turnpike for no damn reason other than carrying a student from Bangladesh to pick up his bride at Kennedy flying in from London. Those were the days. 10 hours nonstop from Morgantown WV to the Big Apple.
