"You Can't Catch Me" lyrics
"You Can't Catch Me"
(originally by Chuck Berry)
I bought a brand-new air mobile
It was a custom made, it was a Flight DeVille
With a powerful motor and a hide away wing
Push in on the button, you will hear her sing
Now you can't catch me
Baby, you can't catch me
Because if you get too close
You know I'm gone like a cool breeze
Hey, hey
Well, you walk
Do the walk
New Jersey Turnpike in the wee wee hours
I was rolling slowly because of drizzling showers
Here come a flat-top, he was moving up with me
Then come waving goodbye in a little old souped up jitney
I put my foot in the tank, I began to roll
Moaning siren, it was the state patrol
I let out my wings, then I blew my horn
Bye-bye, New Jersey, I become air borne
You can't catch me
Baby, you can't catch me
Because if you get too close
You know I'm gone like a cool breeze
Hey, hey
Well, you walk
Do the walk
I bought a brand-new air mobile
It was a custom made, it was a Flight DeVille
With a powerful motor and a hide away wing
Push in on the button, you will hear her sing
Now you can't catch me
Baby, you can't catch me
Because if you get too close
You know I'm gone like a cool breeze
Hey, hey
Well, you walk
Do the walk
Flying with my baby last Saturday night
Wasn't a grey cloud floating in sight
Big, full moon, shining up above
Cuddle up, honey, be my love
Sweetest little thing that I ever seen
I'm gonna name you Maybellene
Flying on the beam, set on flight control
Radio tuned to rock and roll
Two, three hours passed us by
Altitude dropping to five-o-five
Fuel consumption, way too fast
Let's get on home before we run out of gas
Now you can't catch me
Baby, you can't catch me
Because if you get too close
You know I'm gone like a cool breeze
Get it on
Yeah, walk
Get it on, get it on, get it on, do it
Get it on, get it on
You know you can't catch me

Queen - "Life Is Real (Song For Lennon)" Guilt stains on my pillow
Blood on my terraces
Torsos in my closet
Shadows from my past
Life is real, life is real
Life is real, so real

Waking up in a minefield
Dream is...
Emitt Rhodes - "Textile Factory" I'd like to tell you 'bout my home town
But it's awfully hard to explain to a stranger

Billy Joel - "Laura" Laura calls me
In the middle of the night
Passes on her
Fateful information
Then these careless fingers
They get caught in her vise

Living alone isn't all...
The Mamas And The Papas - "Dancing In The Street" Callin' out around the world -
Are you ready for a brand new beat?
Summer's here and the time is right
For dancin' in the streets.
They're dancin' in Chicago,
Down in New Orleans,
Up in New York...
The Traveling Wilburys - "Wilbury Twist" You put your hand on your head
Put your foot in the air
Then you hop around in the room
In your underwear
