Was ridin' along side the highway,
|
Rollin' up the countryside.
|
Thinkin' I'm the devil's heatwave,
|
What you burn in your crazy mind?
|
Saw a slight distraction
|
Standin' by the road.
|
She was smilin' there, yellow in her hair.
|
"Do you wanna," I was thinkin', "would you care?"
|
|
Sweet hitch-a-hiker,
|
We could make music at the Greasy King.
|
Sweet hitch-a-hiker,
|
Won't you ride on my fast machine?
|
|
Cruisin' on thru the junction,
|
I'm flyin' 'bout the speed of sound.
|
Noticin' peculiar function,
|
I ain't no roller coaster; show me down.
|
I turned away to see her,
|
Whoa, she caught my eye.
|
But I was rollin' down, movin' too fast.
|
"Do you wanna," she was thinkin', "can it last?"
|
|
Sweet hitch-a-hiker,
|
We could make music at the Greasy King.
|
Sweet hitch-a-hiker,
|
Won't you ride on my fast machine?
|
|
Was busted up along the highway,
|
I'm the saddest ridin' fool alive.
|
Wond'ring if you're goin' in my way,
|
Won't you give a poor boy a ride?
|
Here she comes a-ridin',
|
Lord, she's flyin' high.
|
But she was rollin' down, movin' too fast.
|
"Do you wanna," she was thinkin', "can I last?"
|
|
Sweet hitch-a-hiker,
|
We could make music at the Greasy King.
|
Sweet hitch-a-hiker,
|
Won't you ride on my fast machine?
|
|
Sweet hitch-a-hiker,
|
We could make music at the Greasy King.
|
Sweet hitch-a-hiker,
|
Won't you ride on my fast machine?
|
|
Sweet hitch-a-hiker,
|
We could make music at the Greasy King.
|
Sweet hitch-a-hiker,
|
Won't you ride on my fast machine?
|
|
Sweet hitch-a-hiker,
|
We could make music at the Greasy King...
