Lyrics
"Hands on a Hurricane"
Trafton Harvey and Robin Branda
A Cat 5 hurricane'll rage, at one fifty five
I know some boys -- who do that much and more
N' they do with finesse, to cross a thin white line
While strapped inside the eye of the storm
It ain't Andrew or Katrina, it's called NASCAR
A gale force to quicken' any heart ....
CHORUS
Like hands on a hurricane - screamin' 'round the track
Controllin' that chaos - they fight to stay it intact
N' man they do it great, side by side, daring fate
Blastin' through the air, barely sane
Like hands ... on a hurricane
Sometimes that wind gets nasty, underneath their chassis
Sends 'em flyin' like a steel kite through the sky
Not a soul in the stands will breathe again
Till they emerge from that rubble, arms held high
It aint Andrew or Katrina, it's called NASCAR
A storm surge to quicken' any heart ....
CHORUS
Like hands on a hurricane - screamin' 'round the track
Controllin' that chaos - in a fight to stay it intact
N' man they do it great, side by side, daring fate
Blastin' through the air, barely sane Like hands ... on a hurricane
HALF CHORUS:
Blastin' through the air, barely sane
Like HANDS On that hurricane (tryin' ... to keep it sane)
Yeah hands ... on a hurricane
