(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, couldnt nothing hold me down.

Cause Im on a wild ride, full stride, Ive let go of the reins
I get off on getting out of control
Baby, Ive got a raging fire, running through my veins
I just cant seem to take it slow
Oh cause life gets better I know,
The faster I go

Well people call me crazy, yall, just because Im young
But I aint gonna waste one night till my days are done
Full speed down the track, forget about the brakes
If you dont wanna get on board, then youd best get outta my way

Cause Im on a wild ride, full stride, Ive let go of the reins
I get off on getting out of control
Baby, Ive got a raging fire, running through my veins
I just cant seem to take it slow
Oh cause life gets better I know,
The faster I go

Im on a wild ride, full stride, Ive let go of the reins
I get off on getting out of control
Baby, Ive got a raging fire, running through my veins
I just cant 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
