Pedal Down lyrics
by Eddie And The Getaway
[Verse 1]
I saw you sitting there smiling in a shotgun seat
I guess you meant it when you said to me
We're ’bout as over as over could be
It's been a rough couple weeks
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause, baby, I’ve been
With women and whiskey, been puttin' miles in
To things that ain't good for me, now I'm drivin'
'Cause, damn, I've had enough
And it ain't lookin’ up
[Chorus]
So I put the pedal down, pedal down
I hit the road and I ain’t turnin' ’round, turnin' 'round
I'm cryin’ tears up on this highway shoulder
Swerving the line to holding on and closure
Yeah, I put the pedal down, pedal down
Not eatin' nothing, man, I'm headin' south, headin' south
I couldn't be all that you wanted
You left this bedroom haunted
And, damn, it's like a ghost town
Yeah, so I put the pedal down
[Verse 2]
Wish I'd've heard it through a friend of mine
Instead of seein' it with my own damn eyes
But now I'm runnin' and gunnin'
From something I loved and once was mine, yeah
[Chorus]
Yeah, I put the pedal down, pedal down
I hit the road and I ain't turnin' 'round, turnin' 'round
I'm cryin' tears up on this highway shoulder
Swerving the line to holding on and closure
Yeah, I put the pedal down, pedal down
Not eatin' nothing, man, I'm headin' south, headin' south
I couldn't be all that you wanted
You left this bedroom haunted
And, damn, it's like a ghost town
Yeah, so I put the pedal down
[Bridge]
Yeah, you totally moved on, now I'm running on empty
Even though you're gone, yeah, you're still here with me
[Chorus]
So I put that pedal down
I hit that road and I ain't turnin' 'round
My tears are flooded on this highway shoulder
Swerving the line to holding on and closure
So I put the pedal down, pedal down
I-65, and, man, I'm headin' south, headin' south
I couldn't be all that you wanted
You left this bedroom haunted
And, damn, it's like a ghost town
Yeah, so I put that pedal down
Oh, I put the pedal down
Oh, I put the pedal down
