i got eighteen wheels and a polished rig 

im in a big ol' hurry and i do mean big 

got to get this load to the kamen town 

before the sun comes up and they shut me down 

oo oo overdrive 



i got stopped by the man at the seagle scale 

got sidetracked by the waitress at the steak and ale 

got walayed, all day, traffic jam. 

just south of the border down in alabam. 

oo oo overdrive 


overdrive 

i got to roll on just to survive 

the only time i feel alive 

is when i kick it into 

oo oo overdrive 


my momma said when i was born 

i was born on the run 

my daddy was a truck drivin son of a gun 

got a highway song running through my brain 

got desiel oil running through my veins 

oo oo overdrive 


overdrive 

i got to roll on just to survive 

the only time i feel alive 

is when i kick it into 

oo oo overdrive 


15 break 


overdrive 

i got to roll on just to survive 

the only time i feel alive 

is when i kick it into 

oo oo overdrive 


i had a dream last night that i was standin still 

woke up broke out sweatin a chill 

when the white line stops,they better lay down 

in a cab over coffin in the cold hard ground 

oo oo overdrive

i got to roll on just to survive 

the only time i feel alive 

is when i kick it into
