Lyrics

(one, two, three, four)
[00:16.58] Well, my time went so quickly
[00:24.58] I went lickety-splitly out to my ol' fifty-five
[00:30.58] As I pulled away slowly, feelin' so holy
[00:37.58] God knows I was feelin' alive
[00:45.88] Now the sun's comin' up, I'm ridin' with Lady Luck
[00:58.58] Freeway cars and trucks
[01:05.58] Stars beginnin' to fade, and I lead the parade
[01:18.58] Just a-wishin' I'd stayed a little longer
[01:25.58] Oh Lord, let me tell you that the feeling gettin' stronger
[01:33.58] And it's six in the mornin'
[01:38.18] Gave me no warnin', I had to be on my way
[01:46.58] Well, there's trucks all a-passin' me, and the lights all a-flashin'
[01:53.58] I'm on my way home from your place
[01:59.58] And now the sun's comin' up, I'm ridin' with Lady Luck
[02:14.58] Freeway cars and trucks
[02:21.58] Stars beginnin' to fade, and I lead the parade
[02:34.58] Just a-wishin' I'd stayed a little longer
[02:41.58] Oh Lord, let me tell you the feeling gettin' stronger
[02:49.58] And my time went so quickly
[02:53.58] I went lickety-splitly out to my ol' fifty-five
[03:03.58] As I pulled away slowly, feelin' so holy
[03:09.58] God knows I was feelin' alive
[03:16.18] And now the sun's comin' up, I'm ridin' with Lady Luck
[03:29.58] Freeway cars and trucks
[03:36.58] Freeway cars and trucks
[03:43.58] Freeway cars and trucks
