Daytona
Copyright Sonny B. Bell & Robert Allred

I wanna make the trip to Daytona Beach
I wanna sit up high in the highest seats
At Daytona
Oh Daytona
I’d beg or borrow or a little of each
Just to watch a race at Daytona Beach

The 24 Hours and the Gatorade Twins
The race for the pole, I wanna take it all in
At Daytona
Oh Daytona
NASCAR’s Superbowl, Center of Speed
I wanna see it all at Daytona Beach

Where Awesome Bill ran two-hundred-ten
Daytona is the place where racin’ begins
Startin’ each year in the February sun
Since ‘59 it’s been number one (one, one, one)

(instrumental)

I wanna watch the girls while they watch the race
With their long sleeve shirts tied around their waists
At Daytona
Oh Daytona
Ain’t no place I’d rather be
Than watchin’ a race at Daytona Beach

Petty and Earnhardt are still the kings
When it comes to racin’ at Daytona Beach

Oh Daytona...
