(paul nelson/larry boone/john rich)



Well, i was born a-kickin, lord, and bound to die the same

Son of a son of a man on the run, reared on raisin cain

Mama put lead in my boots to keep me on the ground

But once i heard that highway call, couldn't nothing hold me down.



Cause i'm on a wild ride, full stride, i've let go of the reins

I get off on getting out of control

Baby, i've got a raging fire, running through my veins

I just can't seem to take it slow

Oh cause life gets better i know,

The faster i go



Well people call me crazy, y'all, just because i'm young

But i ain't gonna waste one night till my days are done

Full speed down the track, forget about the brakes

If you don't wanna get on board, then you'd best get outta my way



Cause i'm on a wild ride, full stride, i've let go of the reins

I get off on getting out of control

Baby, i've got a raging fire, running through my veins

I just can't seem to take it slow

Oh cause life gets better i know,

The faster i go



I'm on a wild ride, full stride, i've let go of the reins

I get off on getting out of control

Baby, i've got a raging fire, running through my veins

I just can't seem to take it slow

Oh cause life gets better i know,

The faster i go

The faster i go

Yeah the faster i go

The faster i go
