Speed Kills

Speed Kills - Ten Years After

Written by：Alvin Lee/Mike Vernon

Get on the ball boys let' catch that train and get on

Well run your Chevy down the highway doing 9 to 5

Got his V 8 engine buzzing like a hive

Gotta catch that mail train just to stay alive

Well he wrote his baby a letter when he was in pain

Well he told his little baby don't wanna see you again

Well he's gotta drop that letter gotta catch that train

Gotta beat it to the crossing before he gets to town

Got to keep that whistle humming keep it to the ground

Gotta catch that mail train gotta flag it down

Roll on boy

Well he's squealing around the bend tracks are getting near

Well the roaring of the engine passing in his ear

Well he ain't gonna make it
