Speed Merchants Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Turn the wheel, start the drift
On the turn, make the shift
Spinning wheels, burning rubber
Hear the engine scream
Revving high, reach the limit
Turbocharged and born to live it
On the edge, give it more
Listen to the engine roar

[Pre-Chorus]
Ram the throttle down
Listen to the sound

[Chorus]
Speed merchants
Take it to the limit
Speed merchants
Loving every minute

[Verse 2]
Choose the cars, start the fight
Who's the fastest from the lights
Acceleration pure and sweet
Ram the pedal down
Hit the red line, hear the sound
Hold your nerve, you're gaining ground
Charging fast across the line
Hit the brakes and check the time

[Pre-Chorus]
Racing through the gears
It's music to your ears

[Chorus]
Speed merchants
Take it to the limit
Speed merchants
Loving every minute
Speed merchants
Ram the throttle down
Speed merchants
Don't you love the sound?

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
On the track through twists and turns
Tyres squeal and rubber burns
Who's the fastest on the day?
It's way too close to call
Run the slow-mo, take the shot
Motor screaming, running hot
Every second like an hour
Petrol heads and raw horsepower

[Pre-Chorus]
Ram the throttle down
Don't you love the sound?

[Chorus]
Speed merchants
Take it to the limit
Speed merchants
Loving every minute
Speed merchants
Turn the wheel and spin it
Speed merchants
Loving every minute
