Streak of lightning coming down the highway
Turn around and watch it go
Switch on the lights
Put on the high-beams
Better find a preacher on the radio

I like to drive at 105
It's just how fast I got to go
I got the gears and I got the motor
Ain't no reason to go slower
And I like the speed I like the motion
I like the rockin' machine
I like to drive at 105
Better hurry up if you wanna catch me

Neon sign flashin by like something in your eye
Elvis on the radio almost makes you cry
Falshing lights in the rear-view you know
Payin' many mile step on the gas 
Pull out to pass and leave 'em far be hind

I like to drive at 105
It's just how fast I got to go
I got the gears and I got the motor
Ain't no reason to go slower
And I like the speed I like the motion
I like the rockin' machine
I like to drive at 105
Better hurry up if you wanna catch me

You shouldn't ought to done it honey 
You shouldn't ought to run around
But two can't be on the highway darlin' 
And I'm the one that's out here now

And I like the speed I like the motion 
I like the rockin' machine I like to drive at 105
Better hurry up if you wanna catch me
Better hurry up if you wanna catch me
