Overdrive Lyrics

Steve Miller Band Overdrive

Well, the room is a cycloneAnd you are in the eyeThere ain't no movementThings that could dieBut the reelin' and the spinnin'Of the rock and roll sidesWill all be gone before midnightAnd die before sunrise
You better go to overdriveGo to overdriveIf you know what it isAnd you wanna stay aliveYou better go to overdriveGo to overdrive
Yes, the corner's full of monkeysAnd your ear drum's full of liesTime is out the windowAnd there's echoes in your sidesThey've been burnin' down your wallsEver since the peep of dawnAnd now the dealer's in the fireplaceTryin' to turn it on
You better go to overdriveGo to overdriveIf you know that it's timeAnd you oughtta take a diveYou better go to overdriveGo to overdrive
Go to overdriveGo to overdriveYou know what it isAnd you wanna stay aliveYou better go to overdriveGo to overdrive
Now the light road's gettin' restlessCause he knows your overdueBut it's just another train rideBein' all the same to youAnd the last shot's at your finger tipsLike that flicker in the grassAnd the last cord hits the ashesAnd you know you gotta pass
You better go to overdriveGo to overdriveIf you know that it's timeAnd you oughtta take a diveYou better go to overdriveGo to overdrive
