I was driving home
I was changing lanes
I like to put some weight on the pedal
I like to feel the strength of the engine
I’m no Mario Andretti
I’m no Ricky Craven
But I’m willing to give you a ride
All the way to New Haven
As long as I can drive
Now we’re on the street
Outside the Harkness Tower
I don’t want to leave you here
So we talk for an hour
I’m no Mario Andretti
I’m no Ricky Craven
But I’m willing to give you a ride
All the way to New Haven
As long as I can drive
It’s funny how things can go wrong
When you’re trying to be strong
[instrumental]
I’m no Mario Andretti
I’m no Ricky Craven
But I’m willing to give you a ride
All the way to New Haven
As long as I can drive
As long as I maintain some control
As long as I can drive
[outro]
