Lyrics
Rev'em Up
I see the speedway risin', from 95
500 good reasons why I'm alive
It's the whinin' of the clutch, the grindin' of the gears
It's 98 degrees and the skies are clear...
(Chorus)
Rev'em Up, Rev'em Up
How I love that sound of the hammer droppin' down
Rev'em Up, Rev'em Up
Burnin' blacktop and they just won,t stop
'Till they take a drink from the Victory Cup
Rev'em, Rev'em Up
Runnin' RPM's, right into the red
Barkin' like a junk-yard dog, that just has to be fed
Two mile and a quarter of straight bumper chasin'
Gettin' kind of rough, Son, but rubbin' is racin'...
(Chorus)
I've been to...
Daytona, Darlington, Talledega, Richmond
Martinsville, Lond Pond, Watkins Glen, Louden
Charlotte, Dover, Rockingham, Pheonix, Vegas, Brooklyn
Bristol, Indy, Miami, Atlanta, Fort Worth, Kansas City...
(Chorus)
