Billy Bragg - Speedway Hero Lyrics
Take her little fingers
And put 'em to your face
And don't forget she said
You're looking good
That you get into a race
Beneath it all
You're only flesh and blood
So fill her up and pick her up
And ride into the breeze
You're taking all the corners
That were at the 35 degrees
It's so hard to face up to
Another speedway hero's coming home
She's young and dressed in leather
And you met her at a dance
And you can't make out
That strange look in her eyes
But don't waste your time in talking
Or waiting for the day
Because biker girls only want
To see you die
So take them, wear their sorrow
Like a badge to all the world
Have pity on this little teenage
Heartbroken girl
It's so hard to face up to
It ain't in no highway code
Another speedway hero's coming home
Speedway
Keep one eye on the speedo
And one hand on the bottle
Keep one eye on the lady
And one hand on the throttle
It's so hard to face up to
But it's harder in the dirt
And even speedway heroes are getting hurt
Even speedway heroes are getting hurt
Even speedway heroes are getting hurt
