Theres no time for a suitcase Just grab a quick change of clothes. You ask where we’re going now honey. Well, id tell ya but nobody knows. So sneak out the back door cuz you know they’ll try to make you stay. Make sure you gotta a [sic] seatbelt on cuz were [sic] heading for the interstate.
CHORUS We’re having the best time living the fast life Thinking were [sic] just too young to die Ain’t waiting for next time to see all the Bright lights, to see it all. We’ll drive in the fast lane out on the freeway tell us to slow down starts a car chase. As long as we’ve got each other we’ve got it made.
Pulled over to the side of the road Going skinny dipping in the dark. Must’ve left the radio on We had to push the car to get it to start Cruising down on sunset. Then went racing up Mohulland [sic] drive. There we stopped at the world oh, I never felt so alive
—— CHORUS ——
Now we’re running on empty we’ve got no place to go We’ve been sleeping in the back seat Just waiting for the sun to show Low on cash, the tape deck’s broke Thinking of heading home But I can tell by the smile on your face That we’ve still got miles to go.
