Adventure Highway (Revised)

Cruising sunrise highway
Got the sun beaming bright
the T-tops are open wide
and the hamptons are in sight

a Benz is in the left lane going too slow
Speedometer says eighty as we push him through the door
The peddles to the metal as the engine begins to roar
Pushing him over ninety before he hits the police radar 

Suddenly lights are flashing and sirens blaring
Mr Ritz was sure pissed when he was pulled over to the side
Because we were riding his ass and heavy on the gas
He just wouldn’t let us pass and shook his fist at us as we sped on by
 
Adventure highway
No slowing down speeding right along
Adventure highway
Left our worries far behind

Adventure highway
Dusk till dawn we’re cruising on
Adventure highway
Ripping up the road rocking all the way
Adventure highway
Taking our chances living wild through the night 

Twelve hours later met a girl in a bar 
closer and closer french kissing by the door
Her fire brought me higher with lust in her eyes
Puckering with delight she played the flute all night it felt so right

Adventure highway
Dusk till dawn we’re cruising on
Adventure highway
Ripping up the road rocking all the way
Adventure highway
Taking our chances living wild through the night
