(Billy Bob Thornton/Mark Collie)
Born from a fearless breed
Hungry for speed
Red-blooded, true American racer
Two Ohio boys
In a fast machine
And dreams they're chasin'
A true American racer
Five hundred miles
Five hundred miles
Five hundred miles
And a dream comes true
Well, it all gets real
Caged in steel
Red-blooded, true American racer
Running wild and free
Dust is all you see
And your dreams come true for a
True American racer
Five hundred miles
Five hundred miles
Five hundred miles
And a dream comes true
Five hundred miles
Five hundred miles
Red-blooded, true American racer
(Instrumental)
He stood in victory lane
And he felt no pain
Took one more sip of that milk
And he whispered
I can go now
Five hundred miles
Five hundred miles
Red, white, and blue American racer
Five hundred miles
Five hundred miles
Red, white, and blue American racer
Five hundred miles
Five hundred miles
Five hundred miles
Five hundred miles
