Well my time went so quickly, I went lickety-splickly out to my old '55
|
As I drove away slowly, feeling so holy, God knows, I was feeling alive.
|
|
Now the sun's coming up, I'm riding with Lady Luck, freeway cars and trucks,
|
Stars beginning to fade, and I lead the parade
|
Just a-wishing I'd stayed a little longer,
|
Oh, Lord, let me tell you that the feeling's getting stronger.
|
|
And it's six in the morning, gave me no warning; I had to be on my way.
|
Well there's trucks all a-passing me, and the lights are all flashing,
|
I'm on my way home from your place.
|
|
And now the sun's coming up, I'm riding with Lady Luck, freeway cars and trucks,
|
Stars beginning to fade, and I lead the parade
|
Just a-wishing I'd stayed a little longer,
|
Oh, Lord, let me tell you that the feeling's getting stronger.
|
|
And my time went so quickly, I went lickety-splickly out to my old '55
|
As I pulled away slowly, feeling so holy, God knows, I was feeling alive.
|
|
Now the sun's coming up, I'm riding with Lady Luck,
|
Freeway cars and trucks, freeway cars and trucks, freeway cars and trucks...
