Roller Coaster Run (Up Too Slow, Down Too Fast)

I ride a roller coaster up and down an asphalt track
Runs from Kingsport, Tennessee to Baltimore and back
I drive the Blue Ridge mountains in an eighteen year old truck
Takes a little cheating and it takes a little luck

And it's up too slow, down too fast
When will I be done
And each hill's higher than the last
On this roller coaster run

It's one day there, it's one day back, it's one day with my wife
And late at night we talk about our roller coaster life
Seems to me when going up, the law should be obeyed
But you got to come down flying if you want to make the grade

And it's up too slow, down too fast
When will I be done
And each hill's higher than the last
On this roller coaster run

And it's up too slow, down too fast
When will I be done
And each hill's higher than the last
On this roller coaster run
