[Verse 1]
I broke free on a Saturday morning
I put the pedal to the floor
Headed north on Mills Avenue
And listened to the engine roar

[Verse 2]
My broken house behind me and good things ahead
A girl named Cathy wants a little of my time
Six cylinders underneath the hood crashing and kicking
Ahaha! Listen to the engine whine

[Chorus]
I am going to make it through this year if it kills me
I am going to make it through this year if it kills me

[Verse 3]
I played video games in a drunken haze
I was sevеnteen years young
Hurt my knuckles punching the machinеs
The taste of Scotch rich on my tongue

[Verse 4]
And then Cathy showed up and we hung out
Trading swigs from a bottle all bitter and clean
Locking eyes, holding hands
Twin high-maintenance machines
