Lyrics
Everybody's driving just as fast as they can drive
Tryin' to squeeze it all into their busy little lives
Orchestrate an exodus from this bump and grind
Everybody's looking for a little peace of mind
I'll give you everything I got for a little peace of mind
If I were king of everything
If I'm the lucky one
Or if my luck goes down the drink
My chances slim to none
The further fast I pedal
The more I fall behind
Everybody's looking for a little peace of mind
Even all the flunkies and the junkies and the drunks
Even all the cowboys and the rockers and the punks
Even all the silver spoons
Being wined and dined
Everybody's looking for a little peace of mind
I'll give you everything I got for a little peace of mind
Yesterday I drove an Escalade
I was the star of my own show
Today I'm drinkin' 40's in the graveyard with my bro
The hi times and the hard times
Don't pay no never mind
Everybody's looking for a little peace of mind
