Speed Of A Fool

Couldn't tell me nothing had to learn it on my own On the restless side of seventeen, the day that I left home Screaming down that highway with a pa*sion to break any rules I went crashing at the speed of a fool She was serving all night coffee at a San Antonio Cafe She was headed nowhere I was goin' her way With a trusting soul and a naive heart there was nothing I could do I went crashing at the speed of a fool You're either born for holding back or bound for lettin' go So I throw caution to the wind, wherever it may blow It's the only way I know, I go crashing at the speed of a fool Got a hunger for that highway, I know will never end Lord I can't help what I'm not and won't change what I am Till the roll is called up yonder to my own self I'll be true And go crashing at the speed of a fool You're either born for holding back or bound for lettin' go So I throw caution to the wind, wherever it may blow It's the only way I know, I go crashing at the speed of a fool I go crashing at the speed of a fool
