Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Revvin' up my engine
I'm like a 747, mama, shiny, lanky, long, and lean
And I'm lean
Revvin' up my engine, baby
Like a 747, lover, shiny, lanky, long, and lean
What a scene
[Verse 2]
I'm gonna take my silver dollar
Change it into quarters, shove em' in the record machine
Uh huh
[Verse 3]
Baby said she loved me
But then she went and left me, causin' such an awful scene
What a scene
Baby said she needed me, you know
But then she went and left me, causin' such an awful scene
What a scene, yeah
[Verse 4]
Takin' my silver dollar
Change it into quarters, shove em' in the record machine
Yes
[Verse 5]
'Cause I got my own way to rock
I got my own way to roll
And when you're walkin' that walk
It's good for your soul
[Verse 6]
And I'm singin' 'bout my own way to rock
I got my own way to roll
And when you're walkin' that walk
It's good for your soul
[Verse 7]
Two, three, four
[Verse 8]
Revvin' up my engine, baby
Like a 747, mama, shiny, lanky, long, and lean
What a scene
Revvin' up my engine, baby
Like a 747, lover, shiny, lanky, long, and lean
What a scene, yeah
[Verse 9]
Takin' my silver dollar
Change it into quarters, shove em' in the record machine
Uh huh
[Verse 10]
'Cause I got my own way to rock
I got my own way to roll
And when you're walkin' that walk
It's good for your soul
[Verse 11]
Hit me like a dynamite, my own way to rock
I got my own way to roll
And when you're walkin' that walk
It's good for your soul
[Verse 12]
Wake up, lil' Susie
It's me and I'm in love again
Come on lover, got a whole lotta shakin'
Well, I like it like that, yeah
[Verse 13]
Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright
