There's an old Trans-Am in the back alley* With flat tires and no guts I know the radio works Because I keep a battery hooked up I settle in and reach back Behind the seat I got a bottle stashed I box the cap, tip it back Feel like takin' the night out like that Sometimes I find myself losin' my mind I know I'm a better man with you by my side But there's day I just wanna feel like I've got A rocket on a wing, and a rabbit on my wheel There's a speed way in Daytona Beach Where the crowd roars, and the tires screech And I might have had a piece of that history Instead I got my kicks on a city street Travelling at high speeds, the tight squeeze, the victories Given the choice, I couldn't sop Do I ride the heavens or let it drop? Sometimes I find myself losin' my mind I know I'm a better man with you by my side But there's days I just wanna feel like I've got A rocket on my wing, and a rabbit on my wheel There's a beautiful woman and a baby girl That keep me out of trouble in this crazy world How I found her, I don't know But I'm hanging on, because she's pure gold And it's tempting, believe me To put an engine in that old '73 But I'm sure it would cost my life So I straighten up, and fly right Sometimes I find myself losin' my mind I know I'm a better man with you by my side But there's days I just wanna feel like I've got A rocket on my wing, and a rabbit on my wheel I've got a rabbit on my wheel.. I've got a rabbit on my wheel..
