Lyrics Jimmy Barnes – Stolen Car (The Road’s On Fire) – Pt. I

My life is like a stolen car, out of control
I’ve got no destination, I lost my soul
There’s a thunderhead boiling in under the moon
The motor’s howling in and out of tune

I’m asleep at the wheel
And my tyres are blown
I don’t care where I go
Just as long as I’m going

My life is like a stolen car
That I’ve been pushing way too hard
And the road’s on fire and I just roll

And the smell of hot rubber, fills the air
My heart is like a live grenade and baby I don’t care
I took a wrong turn somewhere way back
I’m a long way down, down a wrong track
And the road’s on fire and I just roll

It’s like a kick in the guts
As the rifle recoils
I’m going to take what’s mine
I ain’t sharing the spoils

My life is like a stolen car
That I’ve been pushing way too hard
And the road’s on fire and I just roll

I’m licking up the white lines
Going way too fast
They’re coming at me out of the future
Going into the past
And carving up the early hours I feel
Something up ahead’s going to be real

I’ve been shot from a gun
And I want to reload
I’m like a cannonball
That’s about to explode

My life is like a stolen car
That I’ve been pushing way too hard
And the road’s on fire and I just roll
My life is like a stolen car
That I’ve been pushing way too hard
And the road’s on fire and I just roll

Yeah the road’s on fire
The road’s on fire
Oh the road’s on fire and I just roll
Yeah the road’s on fire and I just roll
