Highway Star

(Blackmore/Gillan/Glover/Lord/Paice)

Nobody gonna take my car
I'm gonna race it to the ground
Nobody gonna beat my car
It's gonna break the speed of sound
Oooh it's a killing machine
It's got everything
Like a driving power big fat tyres
  and everything

     I love it and I need it
     I bleed it yeah it's a wild hurricane
     Alright hold tight
     I'm a highway star

Nobody gonna take my girl
I'm gonna keep her to the end
Nobody gonna have my girl
She stays close on every bend
Oooh she's a killing machine
She's got everything
Like a moving mouth body control
  and everything

     I love her I need her
     I seed her
     Yeah She turns me on
     Alright hold on tight
     I'm a highway star

Nobody gonna take my head
I got speed inside my brain
Nobody gonna steal my head
Now that I'm on the road again
Oooh I'm in heaven again I've got everything
Like a moving ground an open road
  and everything

     I love it and I need it
     I seed it
     Eight cylinders all mine
     Alright hold on tight
     I'm a highway star

Nobody gonna take my car
I'm gonna race it to the ground
Nobody gonna beat my car
It's gonna break the speed of sound
Oooh it's a killing machine
It's got everything
Like a driving power big
  fat tyres and everything

     I love it and I need it
     I bleed it
     Yeah it's a wild hurricane
     Alright hold on tight
     I'm a highway star
     I'm a highway star
     I'm a highway star
