Liner Notes

This song arose out of the Random Collaboration forum thread. @moggzy and I were paired up. He wrote this excellent piece of music. It sounded to me like a driving song, so I wrote the words below to accompany the song. Unfortunately, neither of us can sing, so right now there are no vocals for the song. If anyone is interested in singing the lyrics, please let either of us know. Thanks!

Lyrics

Verse One (roughly 0:00 – 0:28):

Up at dawn and get to work you’re always on my mind
The thought of seeing you again relieves the daily grind
Today lasted forever, I know you know how I feel
I had to get out of there and get behind the wheel

Chorus One (roughly 0:29 – 1:07)

Hurtlin’ down the
Hurtlin’ down the
Hurtlin’ down the highway
Hurtlin’ down the
Hurtlin’ down the
Hurtlin’ down the highway

I’ve worked all week for this
So I could leave on Friday
I’m gonna make it there
I’m gonna make it my way

Hurtlin’ down the
Hurtlin’ down the
Hurtlin’ down the highway
Hurtlin’ down the
Hurtlin’ down the
Hurtlin’ down the highway

Post-chorus (roughly 1:08 – 1:26)

Speed and wind, it’s good to be alive
You’ll be waiting at the end of my drive

Instrumental break (roughly 1:27 – 1:45)

Verse Two (roughly 1:46 - 2:23):

Another cup of coffee, that’ll keep me goin’ a while
I keep goin' faster as I check off every mile
Push the pedal to the floor, I've got to up my speed
Signs keep whizzing by me but too fast for me to read
Passing people left and right, it’s like I’m in a race
Just a few more hours and I get to see your face

Pre-chorus (roughly 2:24 – 2:43)

Speed and wind, it’s good to be alive
You’ll be waiting at the end of my drive

Chorus Two (roughly 2:24 – 3:22)

Hurtlin’ down the
Hurtlin’ down the
Hurtlin’ down the highway
Hurtlin’ down the
Hurtlin’ down the
Hurtlin’ down the highway

I’ve worked all week for this
So I could leave on Friday
I’m gonna make it there
I’m gonna make it my way

Hurtlin’ down the
Hurtlin’ down the
Hurtlin’ down the highway
Hurtlin’ down the
Hurtlin’ down the
Hurtlin’ down the highway
