Sun drops low on the western sky,
Heat still clings to the concrete lines,
Keys in hand, hear the engines wake,
V8 rumble, yeah the ground still shakes.
Utes and sedans in a servo light,
Laughs get loud as the day turns night,
Oil on hands, dust on boots,
Living for the run, nothing left to lose.
From the coast to the inland roads,
Every scar tells a story we wrote,
Not chasing fame, not chasing gold,
Just chasing that feeling when the revs get bold. Fast cars, good mates, Aussie nights,
Neon glow under streetlight skies,
Living free between red and green,
After dark is where we’re seen.
Heartbeats match the tachometer,
We don’t sleep, yeah we live for this,
Fast cars, good mates, midnight fire,
Raised on wheels and burning tyres. Windows down, smell the fuel and rain,
Stereo up, drown out the pain,
Every build took blood and time,
Every bolt turned after nine.
Back roads whisper our secret names,
Tail lights dancing like sparks in flames,
No suits here, no silver spoons,
Just Aussie kids and big bad tunes. From backyard sheds to highway runs,
We learned real quick where we’re from,
If it breaks, we fix it twice,
That’s the cost of rolling dice. Fast cars, good mates, Aussie nights,
Neon glow under streetlight skies,
Living free between red and green,
After dark is where we’re seen.
Heartbeats match the tachometer,
We don’t sleep, yeah we live for this,
Fast cars, good mates, midnight fire,
Raised on wheels and burning tyres. Sirens fade in the distance far,
We cool it down then light cigars,
Talk big dreams by the curbside glow,
Where we’re headed, only we will know.
If tomorrow comes a little rough,
Tonight right here is more than enough. Hands in the air, engines roar,
Same old streets but we want more,
Family built on oil and trust,
If one breaks down, we all stop for us. Fast cars, good mates, Aussie pride,
Southern Cross in the sky tonight,
No regrets and no rewinds,
We own these streets, this moment in time.
Heartbeats match the tachometer,
Till the sun cracks over the hills,
Fast cars, good mates, night runs deep,
This is the life we’ll always keep
