i´ve been livin´ in the right lane
keepin´ my speed a steady pace
i´ve been tryin´ to do the best thing
goin´ a little slow, but staying in the race

always believed i could get what i wanted
even if it took a little while
always believed i could take care of my brother
do my thing with style

i´ve been livin´ in the right lane
sometimes arrive a little late
i´ve been tryin´ to do the best thing
people tell me a shouldn´t wait

there have been others travelin´ the same road
get just where they want to be
there have been time when i wanted to break my mold
switch over to another speed

i´ve been livin´ in the right lane
seeing others cruise on by
i´ve been tryin´ to do the best thing
think i´ll give the passin´ lane a try
am i the kind who would run over my brother
just to get where i should be?
am i the kind to be content in my splendor
after all the trouble gettin´ on the freeway?

i´ve been livin´ in the right lane
