NASCAR Rules
© 2004 David Hall Songwriter

Down at Brickyard Friday night
Watching Gordon get it right
Banking low ahead of the turn
Camping infield with my girl, with my girl

I dream of the day I get to drive
Was racing bigwheels when I was five
Pushing the pedal to the floor
Watching the dashboard light up more, light up more

Why can?t we play by NASCAR rules
No slowing down, no time to lose
Why can?t we play by NASCAR rules
A checkered flag would be so cool

At Talledega they?re moving fast
I?m late for work and needing to pass
Popping he clutch and shifting down
My little Chevy can still get down, still get down

Why can?t we drive by NASCAR rules
My rearview mirror lights up blue
Why can?t we drive by NASCAR rules
I?ll pay the ticket , nothing new

Daytona?s got it right
Never forgetting that candle night
One big family standing proud
Love number 3 yeah good and loud
Yeah good and loud

I am proud of my southern roots
People love you for what you do
Don?t cha see that NASCAR rules
This is family, the one I choose
Why can?t we live by NASCAR rules
From the stands down to the crews
Why can?t w live by NASCAR rules
No slowing down no time to lose
