Standard (EADGBE)
I got eighteen wheels and a polished rig,
I'm in a big ol' hurry, and I do mean big
Gotta get this load to bikini town
Before the sun comes up and they shut me down
O, O, Overdrive
Got stopped by the man at a seagul scale
Sidetracked by the waitress at a steak & ale
Got waylaid, all day, traffic jam
Just south of the border down in alabam
O, O, Overdrive
(chorus)
Overdrive, i gotta roll on just to survive
The only time i feel alive
Is when i kick it into
O, O, Overdrive
My mama said when I was born I was born on the run
My daddy was a truck driving son of a gun
Got a highway song running through my brains
Got diesel oil pumping through my veins
O, O, Overdive
(to chorus)
Solo
(to chorus)
I had a dream last night i was standing still
I woke up, broke out sweating to chill
When the white line stops they better lay me down
In a cab over coffin in a new hard ground
O, O, Overdrive
(finishing chorus)
Overdrive, i gotta roll on just to survive
The only time i feel alive
Is when i kick it into
O, O, Overdrive
I kick into
O, O, O, O, Overdrive
