Lyrics
Ricky Wilson drivin', like a sports car
God I want you, like a fuel engine
Energized line, like a road
You ride me
Like a road
You ride me

Foot on the peddle
Feet in the air
Sand in my hair

Oh, don't look back
Don't look behind you
Reckless drivin' on
Dirty back Road

Ricky Wilson drivin', like a sports car
God I want you, like a fuel engine
Energized line, like a road
You ride me
Like a road
You ride me

Foot on the peddle
Feet in the air
Sand in my hair

Oh, don't look back
Don't look behind you
Reckless drivin' on
Dirty back Road
