D-DU-UDU
 I  hear the clock a tickin
 See  the sweat upon my brow
 I  know my destination
 Nothing's  gonna stop me now
 I'm  running on desire
 Baby  I've got nerves of steel
 Coming  down to the wire
 Lord  above me guide the wheel
 Keep  me in  your prayers tonight
 I'll  be weary upon  that road
 I  know the finish  line's  in sight
 But  I still  have a ways to  go
 There's  a junkyard dog a barkin
 In  the valley down below
 He's  wanting me to stop and
 Gather  up a heavy load
 Ain't  gonna heed his call
 Ain't  givin him the time of day
 You  mangy mutt once and for all
 I  said I threw that stuff away
 Keep  me in  your prayers tonight
 I'll  be weary upon  that road
 I  know the finish  line's  in sight
 But  I still  have a ways to  go
 I  won't have a bit  of trouble
 Heading  down the straight  and true
 I'll  fly solo on  the double
 Into  the yonder  blue
 I  might need some intervention
 Out  upon the icy turn
 In  a foggy situation
 Squealin  on a hairpin curve
 I'm  running on desire
 Baby  I've got nerves of steel
 Coming  down to the wire
 Lord  above me guide the wheel
 Keep  me in  your prayers  tonight
 I'll  be weary upon  that road
 I  know the finish  line's  in sight
 But  I still  have a ways
 Keep  me in  your prayers  tonight
 I'll  be weary upon  that road
 I  know the finish  line's  in sight
 But  I still  have a ways to  go
 Got  a ways  to go  got a  ways to go
