I don't feel fear or panic And nothing brings me down. I'm an aerospaceage warrior I can fly sideways through sound. My reflexes and reactions Are as fast as a machine
I'm the right stuff baby, the right stuff I'm the right stuff baby, the right stuff I'm the right stuff baby, the right stuff Watch my trail
When the dial needle flickers Around Mach one or two And something happens suddenly I know just what to do My fists move without feeling And my feet like lightning too
I'm the right stuff baby, the right stuff I'm the right stuff baby, the right stuff I'm the right stuff baby, the right stuff Watch my trail
My nerves are made of steel My nerves are made of steel My nerves are made of steel My nerves are made of steel My nerves are made of steel My nerves are made of steel My nerves are made of steel My nerves are made of steel
And what would freak the average man Will not affect my heart Not even if this dixie-chick Should shake itself apart
I'm the right stuff baby, the right stuff I'm the right stuff baby, the right stuff I'm the right stuff baby, the right stuff Watch my trail
