Silver the Goddess of the Road

Lyrics Chrome on the quarter panel sunlight on the morning glass She grips that wheel like a weapon And leaves a black line in the past Laughing through the curves With the boys stuck in the dust They punch it hard, they pray it sticks But their pride just turns to rust Hear that engine bite Watch her vanish in a spark Every headlight in the rearview Getting smaller in the dark She burns the bend She owns the road Tire smoke halo She laughs out loud Then pulls away Can't catch that shadow Can't take that name Silver the goddess of the road Midnight on the service road She snaps the corner clean Headlights flashing in her mirror Like a warning sign Boys talk loud in parking lots But they fold when she appears She throws a grin, takes the straightaway And feeds on their pain Hear that engine bite Watch her vanish in the night Every headlight in the rearview Getting smaller in the dark She burns the bend She owns the road Tire smoke halo She laughs out loud Then pulls away Can't catch that shadow Can't take that name Silver the goddess of the road Hands on the wheel Heart like steel She was born for the slide No cage, no chain No slow lane Just freedom at her side Left turn Drift fast Dust rises up Then she’s gone She burns the bend She owns the road Tire smoke halo She laughs out loud Then pulls away Can't catch that shadow Can't take that name Silver the goddess of the road
