I have often told you stories
About the way
I lived the life of a drifter
Waiting for the day
When i'd take your hand
And sing you songs
Then maybe you would say
Come lay with me love me
And i would surely stay
But i feel i'm growing older
And the songs that i have sung
Echo in the distance
Like the sound
Of a windmill goin' 'round
I guess i'll always be...
A soldier of fortune
Many times i've been a traveller
I looked for something new
In days of old
When nights were cold
I wandered without you
But those days i thougt my eyes
Had seen you standing near
Though blindness is confusing
It shows that you're not here
Now i feel i'm growing older
And the songs that i have sung
Echo in the distance
Like the sound
Of a windmill goin' 'round
I guess i'll always be...
A soldier of fortune
Yes, i can hear the sound
Of a windmill goin' 'round
I guess i'll always be
A soldier of fortune
Nobody gonna take my car
I'm gonna race it to the ground
Nobody gonna beat my car
It's gonna break the speed of sound
Oooh it's a killing machine
It's got everything
Like a driving power big fat tyres
and everything
CHORUS
I love it and I need it
I bleed it yeah it's a wild hurricane
Alright hold tight I'm a highway star
Nobody gonna take my girl
I'm gonna keep her to the end
Nobody gonna have my girl
She stays close on every bend
Oooh she's a killing machine
She's a moving mouth body control
and eve
rything
I love her I need her
I seed her
Yeah She turns me on
Alright hold on tight I'm a highway star
Nobody gonna take my head
I got speed inside my brain
Nobody gonna steal my head
Now that i'm on the road again
Oooh i'm in heaven again i've got everything
Like a moving ground an open road
and everything
I love it and I need it
I seed it eight cylinders all mine
Alright hold on tight I'm a highway star
Nobody gonna take my car
I'm gonna race it to the ground Nobody gonna beat my car
It's gonna break the speed of sound
Oooh it's a killing machine
It's got everything like a driving power big
fat tyres and everything
I love it and I need it
I bleed it
Yeah it's a wild hurricane
Alright hold on tight I'm a highway star
I'm a highway star, I'm a highway star
