I can see you've got your motor running Don't you think you're movin kinda slow If you feel the way I feel Let me get behind the wheel We don't need any destination baby Anywhere you want to go Give me the keys, and I'll drive you crazy Give me the keys, I'll drive you out of your mind Honey we don't need no registration We don't need no license anymore Let me in the driver's side And we can take a ride We don't need to ask directions baby I know where you want to go Give me the keys, and I'll drive you crazy Give me the keys, I'll drive you out of your mind Give me the keys, and I'll drive you crazy Give me the keys, I'll drive you out of your mind Maybe we'll just ride into the sunset Drive around 'til who knows where or when And when it gets a little dark We'll find a quiet place to park And when the sun comes up in the morning baby Do it all over again
