Lyrics
"That NASCAR Dream"
Trafton Harvey and Robin Branda
Revvin' up n' ready, strapped inside a ton of steel
Heart is poundin' harder - hands grip the wheel
Anthem sung, pace car's done, then like a bullet from a gun
At one ninety plus, they roar through early spring
Chasin' that NASCAR dream
CHORUS:
Daytona, Talladega - Bristol and beyond
Petty, Earnhardt, Elliot - and many more to come
Draftin', passin,' swappin' paint, to be that infield king
When winter's gone, the race is on, chasin' that NASCAR dream
It started years ago, from Alabam' to Caroline
Leavin' lawmen in the dust - runnin' loads o'shine
Now fans jam, into the stands, on oval tracks across the land
To see 'em risk it all for victory
chasin' that NASCAR dream
CHORUS:
Darlington, Pocono - Richmond and beyond
Stewart, Busch and Gordon - and many more to come
Draftin', passin,' swappin' paint, to be that infield king
When winter's gone, the race is on, chasin' that NASCAR dream
Bridge:
Some of those heroes, lost it all to that dream
Every NASCAR heart, holds 'em in their memory
As they chase that checkered flag, to their destiny ... at ...
CHORUS:
Martinsville, Rockingham - Dover and beyond
Harvick, Kayne n' Waltrip - and many more to come
Draftin', lappin', swappin' paint, to be the infield king
When winter's gone, the race is on, chasin' that NASCAR dream
Tag:
Yeah they give up damn near everything, chasin' that NASCAR Dream
