You say you can't drive 55 ?

Well neither can Sammy.
For those of you youngin's here's a blast from the past. 1984 to be exact. So next time your doing 125mph and you get pulled over, just stream this while the officer approaches. It might just get you some leeway. Or a ride in the back of his car.

Now here's a fact or not. I can't be bothered checking but supposedly.
Quote:
Fun fact: this song was inspired by true life event's. After getting pulled over for speeding, the highway patrolman told Sammy that the speed limit was 55 miles an hour. As the officer wen't to his vehicle to retrieve something Sammy thought to himself, "I can't drive 55." He knew in an instant that he had the germ of a new song. The cop came back to Hagar's vehicle and gave him the speeding ticket. Sammy thanked the officer as the whole thing had inspired one of his biggest hits.

Anyway have fun......will ya!

I have this idea for a song, maybe call it “ I can’t drive 125mph”……….
