Dude ain't seen his baby in a while and he's jonesin' for her.
I was out of town for a month and was missing my girl, and I wrote this song. I wasn't doing 165, but I did have my Mustang GT settin' on 135, on a long, deserted stretch of interstate. FOrtunately there wasn't a cop in sight. :-)
I'm leavin' outa Nashville Tennessee, headed for Atlanta town
Gotta see my baby tonight, before the sun go down
Cruise control set on ninety five, got to get there quick
Cause I ain't seen my baby, in over three long weeks
I called her on the telephone, said I'm on my way
With a pocket full of money, cause I just got paid
She said hurry baby, I'm here waitin' for you
Said I got somethin' for ya, I know ya want it too
[chorus]
Gotta see my baby tonight, it's been way too long
Cause ya know that in her arms is where I belong
Ain't nothin' gonna stop me, even if I have to fight
Speed limit don't mean nothin' Gotta see my baby tonight
As I cross the state line, Alabama trooper waitin' for me
Blue lights flashin' in my rear view mirror,
but tail lights is all they'll see
My speedo's settin' on one sixty five ain't nobody gonna catch me
Cause my motor's super charged and I'm gonna see my baby
