Let's Take A Drive Lyrics - The House Rules - Christian Kane

So he's gone and left you all alone? 

You think the better of your years 

Were spent with him. 

The little girl who used to dance 

On fire and brimstone 

Is all but dead. 

Where's the girl I knew that held 

A lighter up to the radio, 

She'd do anything she wants 

Because she can? 

We were seventeen and wild 

And we were jumpin' on the Devil's bed... 

I didn't raise you like that. 

I taught you lessons about freedom 

Strapped to the bucket of a 455. 

I lit your hair on fire 

Racing ten mile flats 

Where American heavy metal cries. 

Oh we were waitin' and wishin' 

On pink slips and kisses at the end of the line. 

When you rat-a-tat tatted on the glass 

And you screamed on high, 

I'm alive. 

You can say that cat is long gone 

I bet you look real hard 

You can find that girl within 

She's probably waitin' in the wings 

For you to come along. 

To let her out again 

You need a quarter mile, a bunch of horses, 

And some gasoline. 

I taught you lessons about freedom 

Strapped to the bucket of a 455. 

I lit your hair on fire 

Racing ten mile flats 

Where American heavy metal cries. 

Oh we were waitin' and wishin' 

On pink slips and kisses at the end of the line. 

When you rat-a-tat tatted on the glass 

And you screamed on high, 

I'm alive.
