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
