I'm reving up my engine I'm like a seven forty seven I'm a shiny lanky long and lean...and I'm lean
I'm reving up my engine baby Like a seven forty seven I'm a lanky long and lean... what a scene
I'm going to take my silver dollar and change it into quarters Shove them in the record machine...uh uh ha!
My baby said she loved me but then she went and left me Causing such an awful scene...what a scene
My baby said she needed me You know that (( danger went and left me )) (( Causing such an awful scee-ee-ene ))...what a scee-ee-ee-ene, a-ya-ee-yeah
Taking my silver dollar (( Shave them in the corners )) (( Shove them in the record machine ))...yes!
'cause I got my own way to rock I got my own way to roll and when you're walking that walk It's good for your soul
You know I'm singing about (( my own way to rock )) I got (( my own way to roll )) and (( when you're walking that walk )) (( It's good for your soul ))
