Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Was ridin' alongside the highway
Rollin' up the countryside
Thinkin' I'm a devil's heat wave
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?
[Chorus]
Sweet hitch-hiker
We could make music at the Greasy King
Sweet hitch-hiker
Won't you ride on my fast machine?
[Verse 2]
Cruisin' on through the junction
I'm flyin' about the speed of sound
Notice some peculiar function
And 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?
[Chorus]
Sweet hitch-hiker
We could make music at the Greasy King, yeah
Sweet hitch-hiker
Won't you ride on my fast machine?
[Verse 3]
Was busted up along the highway
I'm the saddest ridin' fool alive
Wonderin' if you're goin' my way
Won't you give a poor boy a ride?
Here she comes a'ridin'
Lord, she flyin' high
She was rollin' down movin' too fast
Do you wanna, she was thinkin' can I last?
[Chorus]
Sweet hitch-hiker
We could make music at the Greasy King
Sweet hitch-hiker
Won't you ride on my fast machine?
Sweet hitch-hiker
We could make music at the Greasy King
Sweet hitch-hiker
Won't you ride on my fast machine?
Sweet hitch-hiker
We could make music at the Greasy King
Sweet hitch-hiker
Won't you ride on my fast machine?
Sweet hitch-hiker
We could make music at the Greasy King
