I had a date, and the hour was late
I was hitch-hikin in the rain
The cars were few, and I was hungry for you
I knew Id do anything
I found a parked car, sittin all alone
I wired er, fired er, and I was gone
Here I come, Im on my way, yeah

Hot on the heels of love, yeah
Hot on the heels of love for ya
Hot on the wheels of love, yeah

I guess I was drunk, but thats ok
Cause I knew what I had to do
Keep this ford on the road, if it dont explode
Id pass anything for you
So I put er in race, get on with the chase
Justa burnin for your love
Nothin can stop me, nothing can catch me
Except the lord, yeah

Hot on the heels of love, now
Hot on the heels of love
Hot on the wheels of love, yeah

I see him, sherriff
Mercy, thinks hes comin up fast
I only have half a mile left to catch that boy
Hes headed for the border, damn, hes gone

Here I am, a hell of a man
Guess what I got for you
Something strong, and something long time overdue
Baby come on, gonna get it on
So dont put up a fight
Ive come too far in this old car
Were gonna rock n roll tonight

Hot on the heels of love, yeah
Hot on the heels of love for ya
Hot on the wheels of love, yeah, my my
