Four
Twisted Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tires squealing, freewheeling
Lines coming through the night
Head's roaring disorderly
Engine screams, everything is alright, well

[Chorus]
Four barrel heart of love (get ready, hold steady)
Four barrel heart of love (get ready, hold steady)
You're the one that I'm dreaming of
You're my four barrel heart of love

Raw pounding, hot sounding
Heart stopping and you bet you're alive
Red lining, white lining
Man and thunder in the powerdrive, well

[Chorus]

Let's ride

Gas burning, head turning
Riding hard like never before
Earthshaking, lawbreaking
Hammers down man to the floor, well





[Chorus]
