Lyrics
I've got a love for you baby that's outta' control
I'm like a loaded Mack truck rollin' down the road.
Yesterday I was making good time
Now I'm just tryin' to keep this sucker between the lines.
You'd know what I mean if you were behind the wheel'
I ain't drunk that's just how I feel.
My heart is beating faster than the speed of sound
At least it seems that way whenever she's around.
I thought that it was pretty plain to see
That somewhere along the way that girl put a spell on me.
Well officer, here's the deal'
I ain't drunk that's just how I feel.
She brings me to my knees.
Like a dozen whisky Daiquiris.
I'm getting thirsty and I need a drink
And honey your name's on the swizzle stick.
I'm outta' control yeah I'm outta' my mind
If I'm your daddy baby who's your porcupine?
I've got the 4-ways flashing and the radio on
If it feels this good it can't be wrong'
Well I ain't drunk'
That's just how I feel.
