Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, my time went so quickly
I went lickety-splitly
Out to my ol' 55
As I pulled away slowly
Feeling so holy
God knows I was feeling alive
[Verse 2]
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
Lord, don't you know, the feeling's getting stronger
[Verse 3]
Six in the mornin'
Gave me no warnin'
I had to be on my way
Now the cars are all passin' me
Trucks are all flashin' me
I'm headed home from your place
[Verse 4]
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
Lord, don't you know, the feeling's getting stronger
[Verse 5]
Well, my time went so quickly
I went lickety-splitly
Out to my ol' 55
As I pulled away slowly
Feeling so holy
God knows I was feeling alive
[Verse 6]
And now the sun's coming up (Yes, it is)
I'm riding with Lady Luck
Freeway, cars and trucks
Freeway, cars and trucks
Riding with Lady luck
Freeway, cars and trucks
Riding with Lady luck
Freeway, cars and trucks
Riding with Lady luck
Freeway, cars and trucks
