Driving down in highway sixteen I thought I heard a lover scream There was something on the windshield couldn't see a thing That's when I heard the siren sing
 
And there's time to wonder what she said Green, yellow, yellow to red Time to count those voices in your head Green, yellow, yellow to red She's got cups for the blood and butter for the bread Green, yellow, yellow to red So don't drive so fast these brakes are bad
 
In through the outside out through the in Around the curve into a spin I went over the edge at Leopard's Bend Who's gonna help you now my friend
 
And there's time to wonder what she said Green, yellow, yellow to red Time to count those voices in your head Green, yellow, yellow to red She's got cups for the blood and butter for the bread Green, yellow, yellow to red So don't drive so fast these brakes are bad
