Revving Engines, River Street

John Baumann

[Verse 1]
Revving engines, River Street
There's only time for one heat
'Til the deputy lights flash in pursuit
You make a break for the alley backside
You kill the lights, find a place to hide
Until you can sneak out the county route
And keep the beer beneath the seat, pass the flask around
Oh, what's a boy to do when there's trouble to be found?

[Verse 2]
Sirens fade, you make your way
Down the river route to Kendrick's place
Passed thе county line where thе cops can't find you
The keg's cold, the bourbon's gold
Someone's tellin' a tale they already told
But it's worth a-hearin' every time
She's got her eyes set on you, go slip off without a sound
Oh, what's a boy to do when there's trouble to be found?

[Bridge]
Curfew's meant to be broken by a line of steel convoys
John Cougar on the dial, no place for choir boys
You're only invincible once, don't have to turn the world upside down
No, it wasn't too hard to find when you're young and covering ground
Oh, what's a boy to do when there's trouble to be found?

[Verse 3]
Been twenty years, I'm long gone from
Nights I made the engine hum
Shifting between heartache and horsepower
When you're brash and void of fears
I think those are the golden years
I'd love to live in 'em one more hour
Sometimes, I go out driving, I throw that throttle down
Oh, what's a boy to do when there's trouble to be found?
Trouble to be found
Trouble to be found
