Talladega Lyrics

It was the summer before the real world started and
The deal was we would get to go
If we cleaned it up and got it running, Daddy's old Winnebago
Wing and a prayer down the 65, five best friends on four bald tires
I can still see Billy smiling when we finally made it
To Talladega, boys raise the whiskey in your glass
Here's to turning up, slowing down and cars that go real fast
We were laughing and living, drinking and wishing
And thinking as that checkered flag was waving
Sure would like to stay in Talladega
Interlude (F) C |Am7 G ||
Like a stone, time rolls on; you can't hit pause that's just the deal
Most days in life don't stand out but life's about those days that will
Like Rockin Randall, getting rowdy, shooting roman candles
At the man in the moon ?til the Alabama sun was breaking.
Over Talladega, boys raise the whiskey in your glass
Here's to turning up, slowing down and cars that go real fast
We were laughing and living, drinking and wishing
And thinking as that checkered flag was waving
Sure would like to stay in Talladega
Solo (F) C |Am7 G ||x2
When the winds grow cold and it blows October
I think about us shoulder to shoulder
Like those cars, my thoughts roll over and over and over in my mind
Tonight I'm in Talladega, boys raise the whiskey in your glass
Here's to turning up, slowing down and cars that go real fast
We were laughing and living, drinking and wishing
And thinking as that checkered flag was waving
Sure would like to stay in Talladega
Outro (F) C |Am7 G ||x2
