Speed of a Fool by Tracy Lawrence Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Couldn't tell me nothin'
Had to learn it on my own
On the restless side of seventeen
The day that I left home
Screamin' down that highway
With a passion to break any rules
I went crashin'
At the speed of a fool

[Verse 2]
She was servin' all night coffee
At a San Antonio cafe
She was headed nowhere
I was goin' her way
With a trustin' soul and a naive heart
There was nothin' I could do
So, I went crashin'
At the speed of a fool

[Chorus]
You're either born for holdin' back
Or bound for lettin' go
So, I throw caution to the wind
Wherever it may blow
It's the only way I know
I go crashin'
At the speed of a fool
[Verse 3]
Got a hunger for that highway
I know will never end
Lord, I can't help what I'm not
And won't change what I am
'Til that roll is called up yonder
To my own self I'll be true
And go crashin'
At the speed of a fool

[Chorus]
You're either born for holdin' back
Or bound for lettin' go
So, I throw caution to the wind
Wherever it may blow
It's the only way I know
I go crashin'
At the speed of a fool

[Outro]
I go crashin'
At the speed of a fool
