Theme Song

Title: "Drive"

By: "Mike Post & Pete Carpenter"

Drive!
Push it to the floor till the engine screams.
Drive!
Drivin' like the demon that drives your beat.

You're on a hard road, nobody cares
If you hit the breaks.
You gotta think fast, keep it in gear,
One slip is all it takes.
You gotta keep your wheels on the straight and narrow,
If you wanna survive.

Drive!
Push it to the floor till the engine screams.
Drive!
Drivin' like the demon that drives the beat.
Drive!
