The Hooters - Engine 999 lyrics

one of a thousand built to last

she was the fire dancing with hunger

she knew I would follow till I ran out of gas

lost in the summer of burning desire

she lit up the night from miles away

out of control, yeah she was the fire

and off in the distance she called my name

engine 999, I'll meet you on the roads we used to ride

engine 999, a thousand dreams we left behind

she was the fire and I was her prisoner

one of a thousand tied to her flame

she was the fire dancing with hunger

and the way that she danced was never the same

I was a fool to try and contain her

one of a thousand consumed in her path

running like wild yeah she was the fire

I was the engine she was calling back

engine 999...

she was the fire and I was the engine

she was the one that I couldn't tame

out of control, yeah she was the fire

and still I can hear her call my name

engine 999
