"Motorcycle Mama" lyrics

"Motorcycle Mama"

Motorcycle Mama, won't you lay your big spike down?
Motorcycle Mama, won't you lay your big spike down?
I always get in trouble when you bring it around
Motorcycle Mama, won't you lay it down?

Well I'm runnin', I'm runnin', I'm runnin' down the proud highway
Yeah I'm runnin', I'm runnin', I'm runnin' down the proud highway
And as long as I keep movin', I won't need a place to stay

Motorcycle Mama, won't you lay your big spike down?
Motorcycle Mama, won't you lay your big spike down?
I always get in trouble when you bring that around
Motorcycle Mama, won't you lay it down?

Well I'm here to deliver, I hope you can read my mail, oh yeah
I just escaped last night from the Memory County jail
I see your box is open and your flag is up, my message is ready if there's time enough

Motorcycle Mama, won't you lay your big spike down? (Down)
Motorcycle Mama, won't you lay your big spike down?
Motorcycle Mama, won't you lay it down?
