It's 9:01 on the 495
It's 9:02 on I-78
Traffic's gettin' crazy on the Jersey Pike
The Van Wyck Expressway is making me late
Calling work from the hands-free
I might make it by 10:30
This road's not going my way
Hey, I don't control the highway

Don't worry 'bout no hurry
Feel the speakers push the sound
And when I turn it up, nothing's gettin' me down
Rush hour ain't rushin' me
I'm dancing in my car
I'm moving in my seat
I'm dancing in my car
, Yeah!
Check you out checkin' me
I'm dancing in my car

This morning road is like a dead end
When there's so much I gotta do
But this very same road feels like an old friend
When it leads me back home to you

I've got Conway to Kanye
I won't deny it
Madonna to Nirvana
I'm a Beatles fan
I can't fight it when I amplify it
You gotta hit the dance floor wherever you can

Rush hour ain't rushin' me
I'm dancing in my car
I'm moving in my seat
I'm dancing in my car, Yeah!
Check you out checkin' me
I'm dancing in my car

It's 9:31 and traffic's stuck on the 5
9:32 on the Golden Gate
It's bumper to bumper on the 405
CA-91 is making me late
Calling work from the hands-free
I might make it by 10:30
This road's not going my way
Hey, I don't control the highway

Don't worry 'bout no hurry
Feel the speakers push the sound
And when I turn it up, nothing's gettin' me down
Rush hour ain't rushin' me
I'm dancing in my car
My music A to Z
I'm dancing in my car

This stress ain't stressin' me
I'm dancing in my car, Yeah!
Check you out checkin' me
I'm dancing in my car
Check you out checkin' me
I'm dancing in my car

Yeah!
