Well I went to bed in Memphis
And I woke up in Hollywood 
I got a quarter in my pocket 
And I'd call you if I could 
But I don't know why 
I gotta fly 
I wanna rock and roll this party 
I still wanna have some fun 
Iwanna leave you feeling breathless 
Show you how the west was won 
But I gotta fly 
I gotta fly 

Like Steve McQueen
All I need's a fast machine 
And I'm gonna make it all right 
Like Steve McQueen 
Underneath your radar screen 
You'll never catch me tonight 

I ain't takin' [bad word] off no one 
Baby, that was yesterday 
I'm an all American rebel 
Makin' my big getaway 
Yeah, you know it's time 
I gotta fly 

Like Steve McQueen
All I need's a fast machine 
And I'm gonna make it all right 
Like Steve McQueen 
Underneath your radar screen 
You'll never catch me tonight 

We got rock stars in the White House 
And all our pop stars look like [bad word] 
All my heroes hit the highway 
'Cause they don't hang out here no more 

You can call me on my cell phone 
You can page me all night long 
But you won't catch this free bird 
I'll already be long gone 

Like Steve McQueen 
All we need№s a fast machine 
And we're gonna make it all right 
Like Steve McQueen
All we need's a fast machine 
And we're gonna ride it, all right 
Like Steve McQueen 
Underneath your radar screen 
You'll never catch me tonight
