Well the needle's on E, but I ain't stopping, until I leave this town behind
Somebody said the gasoline was cheaper, once you get across, the county line
And if I could save a little money, if my truck get's me that far
I know I probably oughta find a diner, but I bet I wind up, in a bar
ย
'Cause me, I'm just a flash out on the highway
Chrome steel shining like broad daylight
Rolling through the dust bowls and the ghost towns
Running where the pavement's clear tonight
Ain't nobody knows, where I'm going
Nobody gives a damn about how I feel
I know I'm bound to reach the place I'm going
Because I'm rolling in American Steel
ย
You know, I used to be a Nine-To-Fiver, everybody knew right where I stand
I was a whole lot like my ol' Daddy, I was a stone cold company man
Then as I was driving to work one morning, I just blew right past the gate
I can just picture the boss man saying, this is the first time he's ever been late
ย
'Cause me, I'm just a flash out on the highway
Chrome steel shining like broad daylight
Rolling through the dust bowls and the ghost towns
Running where the pavement's clear tonight
Ain't nobody knows, where I'm going
Nobody gives a damn about how I feel
I know I'm bound to reach the place I'm going
Because I'm rolling in American Steel
ย
Well, just listen to my Goodyear, tires humming, listen to my V8 engine's roar
It sounds likes the crowd when the gunboats coming, bringing all the soldiers home from war
I'd like to start a fire down in the valley, I'll be raising hell up on that hill
Passing little Hondas and little Toyotas, just like they were standing still
ย
And me, I'm just a flash out on the highway
Chrome steel shining like broad daylight
Rolling through the dust bowls and the ghost towns
Running where the pavement's clear tonight
Ain't nobody knows, where I'm going
Nobody gives a damn about how I feel
I know I'm bound to reach the place I'm going
Because I'm rolling in American Steel
And I'm going to reach, the place I'm going
Because I'm rolling
Rolling in American Steel
