I was born in a hurry but there wasnt any place to go
Nowhere fast seemed better than nowhere slow
I never really got the hang of hanging around
Oh when you get down to it
I guess I always knew it
What it is that makes my world go round
Its a matter of horsepower
For eight seconds or miles per hour
Thats the way I am and thats a fact I cant ignore
Yea, big boy legged, fuel injected
Running wild, radar detected
Man can always stand a little bit more
Horsepower
Well the view looks better from ahead than it looks behind
Ive got a need to speed and I dont mean the drugs-store kind
Some people like a life that barely moves at all
I say more power to them
Then I fly right through em
Til it slows down to a crawl
Its a matter of horsepower
For eight seconds or miles per hour
Thats the way I am and thats a fact I cant ignore
Yea, big boy legged, fuel injected
Running wild, radar detected
Man can always stand a little bit more
Horsepower
Then I think about horsepower
For eight seconds or miles per hour
Its the way I am and its a fact I cant ignore
Yea, big boy legged, fuel injected
Running wild, radar detected
Man can always stand a little bit more
Horsepower
Ive been thinkin about horsepower
For eight seconds or miles per hour
Its the way I am and its a fact I cant ignore
Yea, big boy legged, fuel injected
Running wild, radar detected
Man can always stand a little bit more
Horsepower
