"Me And My Machine" lyrics

"Me And My Machine"

Bought myself a car
Thought I would go so far
Thought all the girls would hang around with me
But so far I've been wrong
'Cause no girls came along
And now there's just a car and lonely me

I thought that happiness was just a car away
And now they're taking it away

Just me and my machine
Just driving 'round, nowhere to go
Just a fling on the gear
And there's no girl who wants to know

Oh
La la la la la la, la la la la la la la...

First day it broke down
Was torn around the town
And all the girls just stood and laughed at me
It cost so much to mend
I'll drive it round the bend
Back to the man who sold the thing to me

I thought that happiness was just a car away
And now they're taking it away

No match just like all my chance
If I could find a girl who would ride with me
But if I'd been only smarter
Instead of holding the starter
I'd have some pretty company

Bought myself a car
Thought I would go so far
Thought all the girls would hang around with me
But so far I've been wrong
'Cause no girls came along
And now there's just a car and lonely me

I thought that happiness was just a car away
And now they're taking it away

Just me and my machine
Just driving 'round, nowhere to go
Just me and my machine
And there's no girl who wants to know...
