Ol’55 - Tom Waits
Well, my time went so quickly
I went lickety-splitly out to my ol' fifty-five
As I pulled away slowly, feelin' so holy
God knows I was feelin' alive
Now the sun's comin' up, I'm ridin' with Lady Luck
Freeway cars and trucks
Stars beginnin' to fade, and I lead the parade
Just a-wishin' I'd stayed a little longer
Oh Lord, let me tell you that the feeling gettin' stronger
And it's six in the mornin
Gave me no warnin', I had to be on my way
Well, there's trucks all a-passin' me, and the lights all a-flashin
I'm on my way home from your place
And now the sun's comin' up, I'm ridin' with Lady Luck
Freeway cars and trucks
Stars beginnin' to fade, and I lead the parade
Just a-wishin' I'd stayed a little longer
Oh Lord, let me tell you the feeling gettin' stronger
And my time went so quickly
I went lickety-splitly out to my ol' fifty-five
As I pulled away slowly, feelin' so holy
God knows I was feelin' alive
And now the sun's comin' up, I'm ridin' with Lady Luck
Freeway cars and trucks
Freeway cars and trucks
Freeway cars and trucks
