Rolling down the highway

[Verse 1] Black car flying through the dark of night Foot on the gas, chasing down the light Man in a coat with his thumb in the sky Nothing to fear, just a regular guy Ratty old jacket and a plan to run Heading to the races, see how it’s done [Chorus] Rolling down the highway, breaking the law Fastest fingers that you ever saw A little bit of magic, a little bit of sleight Running away from the flashing blue light Wheels are spinning, taking the dare You’ll never even notice that your watch isn’t there [Verse 2] Speedometer needle hitting one-two-oh Sirens screaming, putting on a show Copper wrote it down with a heavy frown Took all the names, said "see you in town" The hitchhiker smiled, said "don't look so sad I'm a master of the craft and I'm not half bad" [Chorus] Rolling down the highway, breaking the law Fastest fingers that you ever saw A little bit of magic, a little bit of sleight Running away from the flashing blue light Wheels are spinning, taking the dare You’ll never even notice that your watch isn’t there [Bridge] He’s a fingersmith, baby, the king of the trade Don't steal from the poor and he don't use a blade Just a gift in his hands, a power so sweet Reaching in your pocket while you walk down the street [Verse 3] Held up the notebook, held up the pen That copper won’t bother nobody again Returned all the licenses, took back the book Pulled off the road and burned what he took [Chorus] Rolling down the highway, breaking the law Fastest fingers that you ever saw A little bit of magic, a little bit of sleight Running away from the flashing blue light Wheels are spinning, taking the dare You’ll never even notice that your watch isn’t there [Outro] Burn the books up, watch 'em smoke The greatest alive, and that’s no joke Just a man on the road... Keep on rolling.
