[Verse 1]
Johnny works in a factory
Billy works downtown
Terry works in a rock and roll band
Lookin' for that million-dollar sound
I got a job down in Darlington
But some nights I don't go
Some nights I go to the drive-in
And some nights I stay home
[Bridge]
I followed that dream
Just like those guys do way up on the screen
I drove my Challenger down Route 9
Through the dead ends and all the bad scenes
When the promise was broken
I cashed in a few of my own dreams
[Verse 2]
Well, I built that Challenger by myself
But I needed money and so I sold it
Lived a secret I shoulda kept to myself
But I got drunk one night and I told it
All my life I fought that fight
The fight that you can't ever win
Every day it just gets harder to live
That dream you're believing in
Johnny works in a factory
Billy works downtown
Terry works in a rock and roll band
Lookin' for that million-dollar sound
I got a job down in Darlington
But some nights I don't go
Some nights I go to the drive-in
And some nights I stay home
[Bridge]
I followed that dream
Just like those guys do way up on the screen
I drove my Challenger down Route 9
Through the dead ends and all the bad scenes
When the promise was broken

Well, I built that Challenger by myself
But I needed money and so I sold it
Lived a secret I shoulda kept to myself
But I got drunk one night and I told it
All my life I fought that fight
The fight that you can't ever win
Every day it just gets harder to live
That dream you're believing in
