Speed Kills — текст песни (Ten Years After)

Get on the ball, boys. let catch that train and get on.



Well, run your chevy down the highway, doing 95

Got his v-8 engine buzzing like a hive

Gotta catch that mail train, just to stay alive





Well, he wrote his baby a letter when he was in pain

Well, he told his little baby "dont wanna see you again"

Well, hes gotta drop that letter, gotta catch that train





Gotta beat it to the crossing before he gets to town

Got to keep that whistle humming, keep it to the ground

Gotta catch that mail train, gotta flag it down

Roll on, boy





Well, hes squealing around the bend, tracks are getting near

Well, the roaring of the engine, passing in his ear

Well, he aint gonna make it...
