Mark Knopfler Lyrics for Song: Speedway At Nazareth
 Lyrics for Album: Sailing To Philadelphia [2000]
 
 
 
 26346>After 2000 came 2000 and one
 
 To be the new champions, we were there for to run
 
 From springtime in Arizona, 'til the fall in Monterey
 
 And the raceways were the battlefields and we fought 'em all the way
 
 
 
 It was in Phoenix in the morning, I had a wakeup call
 
 She went around without a warning and put me in the wall
 
 I drove at Long Beach, California with three cracked vertebrae
 
 And we went on the Indianapolis, Indiana in May
 
 
 
 Well, the Brickyard's there to crucify anyone who will not learn
 
 I climbed a mountain to qualify went flat through the turn
 
 And I was down in the might-have-beens and an old pal good as died
 
 And I sat down in Gasoline Alley and I cried
 
 
 
 Well we were in at the kill again on the Milwaukee Mile
 
 And in June up in Michigan we were robbed at Belle Isle
 
 Then it was on to Portland, Oregon for the G.I. Joe
 
 And I blew off almost everyone when I my motor let go
 
 
 
 New England, Ontario we died in the dirt
 
 Those walls from Mid Ohio to Toronto they hurt
 
 So we came to Road America where we burned up at the lake
 
 But at the Speedway at Nazareth I made no mistake
