[Verse 1]
Blew out of Texas like a bat out of Hell
Heard my future ringing like the Liberty Bell
Now living in the city is driving me insane
I miss life in the slow lane
[Verse 2]
I went a hundred miles an hour down the road to success
Runnin' and a-gunnin' like the Pony Express
Lord, won't you help me pull back on these reins
I miss life in the slow lane
[Chorus]
I bought a first class ticket on a runaway train
Mister, can you turn this thing around again
Back to the station from where I came
I miss life in the slow lane
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Keep your BMWs and three piecе suits
Give me a country road and my cowboy boots
Oh, then gеt on out of my way
I'm going back to the slow lane
[Bridge]
Fast food, fast cars
Drive-thru sushi bars
Get a tan in a minute
Wash your car while you're in it
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
I bought a first class ticket on a runaway train
Mister, can you turn this thing around again
Back to the station from where I came
I miss life in the slow lane
[Tag]
I miss life in the slow lane
I miss life in the slow lane
