Lyrics
Born To Drive by Glenn Warren and Worley Max McKinney
He learned...to drive...on the dirts tracks...of Carolina...
Where all it took was guts and gasoline;
It was...wire and rust..that held that old...car together..
But he won his rookie race at scventeen.
The day...they held...his high-school...graduation..
A NASCAR owner offered him a ride;
He started...to earning...his higher...educaiton...
200 miles an hour at Riverside.
Chorus: Engines roar...pedal to the floor...
Squeeze a litte more speed...what a high!
Tires squall; Ignore the wall...
Lay it all out on the line...
The boy was...Born To Drive.
He paid...his dues...and fought hard...to learn his lessons...
It didn't take him long to win the pole;
The sponsors...they started...to lining up...to sign him...
When he took the checkered flag at Pocono.
Now the Win...ston Cup...is at the end...of his rainbow;
He'll do anything it takes to win;
It ain't...for the fame...and it ain't...for the money...
It's to prove that he's the best that's ever been.
Chorus: Engines roar...pedal to the floor...
Squeeze a litte more speed...what a high!
Tires squall; Ignore the wall...
Lay it all out on the line...
The boy was...Born To Drive.
