lyrics
Ohh baby I got persistence.
Keep pushing like the Ford motor pistons.
Ohh baby I got persistence.
I’m an automatic transmission.
Ohh baby I got persistence.
I hold the pole position.
Ohh baby I got persistence.
Yeah I go the distance.
No want for gas - I run on love.
So cut the brakes.
There’s no end of the road.
Unfading highway.
Pass no cars on the way.
So set to cruise.
Let’s getaway
Let’s drive
Drive, drive, drive
Let’s drive
Drive, drive, drive, drive
Ohh baby I got persistence.
Keep pushing like the Ford motor pistons.
Ohh baby I got persistence.
I’m an automatic transmission.
Ohh baby I got persistence.
I hold the pole position.
Ohh baby I got persistence.
Yeah I go the distance.
Ohh baby I got persistence.
Yeah I go the distance.
Ohh baby I got persistence.
Yeah I go the distance.
Yeh I go the distance
Yeh I go the distance
Yeh I go the distance
I think I went too fast.
You did.
I think the car might crash.
It will.
I’ll have to pull out the wings and feel the lift underfoot.
I’m shaking with fear.
Such a crazy idea.
Better give it a try.
See if this car can fly.
Let’s fly
Fly, fly, fly
Let’s fly
Fly, fly, fly, fly
I’m flying
I’m floating
I’m flying
I’m floating
Ohh baby I got persistence.
Keep pushing like the Ford motor pistons.
Ohh baby I got persistence.
I’m an automatic transmission.
Ohh baby I got persistence.
I hold the pole position.
Ohh baby I got persistence.
Yeah I go the distance.
Ohh baby I got persistence.
Yeah I go the distance.
Ohh baby I got persistence.
Yeah I go the distance.
Keep pushing like the Ford motor pistons.
Ohh baby I got persistence.
I’m an automatic transmission.
Ohh baby I got persistence.
I hold the pole position.
Ohh baby I got persistence.
Yeah I go the distance.
No want for gas - I run on love.
So cut the brakes.
There’s no end of the road.
Unfading highway.
Pass no cars on the way.
So set to cruise.
Let’s getaway
Let’s drive
Drive, drive, drive
Let’s drive
Drive, drive, drive, drive
Ohh baby I got persistence.
Keep pushing like the Ford motor pistons.
Ohh baby I got persistence.
I’m an automatic transmission.
Ohh baby I got persistence.
I hold the pole position.
Ohh baby I got persistence.
Yeah I go the distance.
Ohh baby I got persistence.
Yeah I go the distance.
Ohh baby I got persistence.
Yeah I go the distance.
Yeh I go the distance
Yeh I go the distance
Yeh I go the distance
I think I went too fast.
You did.
I think the car might crash.
It will.
I’ll have to pull out the wings and feel the lift underfoot.
I’m shaking with fear.
Such a crazy idea.
Better give it a try.
See if this car can fly.
Let’s fly
Fly, fly, fly
Let’s fly
Fly, fly, fly, fly
I’m flying
I’m floating
I’m flying
I’m floating
Ohh baby I got persistence.
Keep pushing like the Ford motor pistons.
Ohh baby I got persistence.
I’m an automatic transmission.
Ohh baby I got persistence.
I hold the pole position.
Ohh baby I got persistence.
Yeah I go the distance.
Ohh baby I got persistence.
Yeah I go the distance.
Ohh baby I got persistence.
Yeah I go the distance.
