Sammy hagar i can t drive 55 lyrics

One foot on the brake and one on the gas, hey!
Well, there's too much traffic, I can't pass, no!
So I tried my best illegal move
Well, baby, black and white come and touched my groove again!

Gonna write me up a 125
Post my face wanted dead or alive
Take my license, all that jive
I can't drive 55! Oh No!

Uh!
So I signed my name on number 24, hey!
Yeah the judge said, "Boy, just one more...
We're gonna throw your ass in the city joint"

Looked me in the eye, said, "You get my point?"
I said Yea!, Oh yea!
Write me up a 125
Post my face wanted dead or alive

Take my license, all that jive
I can't drive 55!
Oh, yea!

I can't drive 55!
I can't drive 55!
I can't drive 55!
I can't drive 55!
Uh!

When I drive that slow, you know it's hard to steer.
And I can't get get my care out of second gear.
What used to take two hours now takes all day. Huh!
It took me 16 hours to get to L.A.

Gonna write me up a 125
Post my face wanted dead or alive
Take my license, all that jive
I can't drive 55!
No, no no,

I can't drive...
(I can't drive 55!)
I can't drive...
(I can't drive 55!)
I can't drive 55!

    What is Sammy Hagar's most famous song?

    I Can't Drive 55 (from VOA, 1984) This of course is the definitive Sammy Hagar song, and one of the solo hits he got to do with Van Halen: You hitch an instant catchphrase to a between-the-eyes chorus, and you've got a hard-rock classic. The title has long since become a code for being unable to play by the rules.

    Why did Sammy Hagar leave Van Halen?

    Van Halen (1985–1996) During Hagar's stint as Van Halen's vocalist, the band was often informally referred to by fans as "Van Hagar" as a way to distinguish the band from the previous David Lee Roth era. Internal disputes eventually led to Hagar's departure from the band in June 1996.

    How old is Sammy Hagar?

    75 years (October 13, 1947)Sammy Hagar / Agenull

    How did Sammy Hagar make his money?

    Sammy Hagar has amassed most of his worth from his own brand of Tequila named Cabo Wabo. He had sold the company around $95 million. Also, he has a huge car collection, including 2005 Aston Martin Vanquish Lagonda, Jaguar XKE, 1967 Gateway GCM-R Fastback Mustang, and more.
