Lyrics
Verse 1
Scorched dirt road and a busted tailgate
Radiator hissing like a copperhead snake
My boots on the dash and your hand on the wheel
Lord knows we been running on borrowed luck and will
Verse 2
Two nine lives down and a ledger full of debt
Wires crossed and sparking where the fuses forget
Your laugh cuts through the engine drone
We're bound for glory on a one-way stone
Pre-Chorus
Fire in the oil pan
Smoke in the sky
Hold on tight darling
We ain't gonna die
Chorus
Highway cats to hell
Pedal through the burning light
Highway cats to hell
Ride on through the endless night
Highway cats to hell
Nothing gonna stop us now
Verse 3
The preacher cried fire from a wooden steeple
Said we was wild-eyed and wicked people
I flicked a match at the county line
He can keep his heaven I'll take mine
Pre-Chorus
Fire in the oil pan
Smoke in the sky
Hold on tight darling
We ain't gonna die
Chorus
Highway cats to hell
Pedal through the burning light
Highway cats to hell
Ride on through the endless night
Highway cats to hell
Nothing gonna stop us now
Guitar Solo
Bridge
You and me and the hum of the blacktop line
Fast as lightning sharp as turpentine
One last howl as the asphalt ends
Two wild hearts that don't need no friends
Chorus
Highway cats to hell
Pedal through the burning light
Highway cats to hell
Ride on through the endless night
Highway cats to hell
Nothing gonna stop us now
Hook
Meow on through
Meow on through
Highway cats
Two lives used
