I'm a road runner honey beep beep!
I'm a road runner honey, and you can't keep up with me
I'm a road runner honey, and you can't keep up with me
Come on, let's race, baby baby, you will see
Here I come, beep beep!
Move over honey, let me by
Move over baby, let this man by
I'm gonna show you baby, look out your head
Gonna put some dirt in your eye
Here I go!
Oh yeah, how am I doin'?
Beep beep!
Take my hand baby,
I'm gonna prove to you that I'm a road running man
I wanna show you something,
that I'm the fastest in the land
Now let me by
Beep! Beep!
Oh yeah, you said you's fast,
but it don't look like you gonna last
Goodbye! I've got to put you down
I'll see you some day,
baby, somewhere hangin' around
