speed limit fifty-five

crawl inside my SUV,
we'll hook up the boat,
and grab the sun spray,
we'll head down to the river,
for a dip and a tan,
watch the sail boats float by,
with their white sails,
a flapping in the wind,
everyone saying hi,
and the speed limit is fifty-five,

Speed limit fifty-five,
speeding down the river,
the chill of the water,
makes the skin on my body,
quiver,
the beer i drink,
and the soda i swallow,
killing the liver,
speeding down that river,
with my wife,
speed limit fifty -five

Driving down the back roads,
goin eighty miles per hour,
hoping the popo dont catch you,
time flying by,
like the combines parked,
along the side of the road,
waiting for harvest,
to come along,
and that is in the back,
of your mind,
is a blonde haired,
blue eyed girl,
sitting in the seat,
next to you,
knowing,
just knowing that the,
the speed limit is fifty- five,

Speed limit fifty five,
flying down the highway,
the breeze from the window,
blowing against your bare arm,
heading out to the local barn,
to get a little toxicated,
with time flying by,
and the speed limit fifty five,
