Speed Limit

There is a heap of sky out tonight, brother,
There is a heap of air round and about.
Speed on this road, turn off on another,
And we'll go out.

Out into the wide sky,
Suddenly.

Keep two wheels down on the street here, brother,
Curves have a way of riding on wind tonight.
Hill on one side, air on every other,
We'll stick tight.

Tight to the small ground moving steadily
In so much sky!
