lyrics

Uncle Louey got me runnin’ money all over town
He said stash the cash where the Feds can’t track it down
When you’re finished with that meet up with your cousin Joe
He’s got some Cadillacs, boy you better move that blow

But I blew it; yeah, I blew it
And they knew it

Drive to stay alive, I got to drive to stay alive
Got a ’33 Ford and a tank of gas
Stick around here I’ll get nowhere fast
Drive to stay alive

Got the mob on my tail, gotta think up a plan
Head out west, livin’ life on the lam
If they catch up with me, I’ll probably end up in the pines
I should thought of that before I blew all their lines

Well I blew it; yeah, I blew it
And they knew it

Drive to stay alive, drive to stay alive
Got a sack of cash and plenty to lose
Time to pull off a 23 skidoo
Drive to stay alive

It’s always do this, do that, hit them with a baseball bat
Hide the body, don’t get caught, meet me in the parking lot
Pick it up, put it down, cross me and I’ll hunt you down

I made it out of Chicago, all the way to Yellowstone
But they caught up with me and made their displeasure known
Into a hail of bullets I dove out of the suicide door
My car’s still there, but you won’t see me no more

‘Cause I blew it; yeah, I blew it
And they knew it

Drive to stay alive, drive to stay alive
Learned my lesson in the end
A faster car is your only friend
Drive to stay alive, drive to stay alive
Drive
