Lyrics

Well, they say turn left when you're turning right
And if you don't hurry you won't make the light
Watch out for that truck, he's passing on the right
Why if it wasn't for my luck we wouldn't live through the night!

Chorus:
Back seat driver
Trying to run all you see
Back seat driver
You'll never run me

Even when I know I'm right you tell me I'm wrong
Then we fuss and we fight the whole night long
You're trying to change me so I'll fit your plan
But back seat driver, you'll never turn this man

(Chorus)

Always pulling on the wheel
Never caring how others feel
Got your foot on the brake
Don't know how much I can take
Trying to run all you see
You'll never run me

(Chorus) (First Verse) (Chorus)
