Tell your Daddy and your Mama too You got something better to do. Stick around the house the rest of your life. Your eighteen you can do what you like. You’ll be the queen of my highway, my motorcycle mama. We’ll see the world through my Harley. We’ll get matching jackets and helmets too. We’ll get respect from the towns we ride through. We’ll sleep at the roadside in the soft green grass and if the squares walk by we’ll let them pass. You’ll be the queen of my highway, my motorcycle mama. We’ll see the world through my Harley. ---

A dewdrop can exalt us like the music of the sun And take away the plain in which we move And choose the course you’re running Down at the end, round by the corner Not right away, not right away Close to the edge, down by a river Not right away, not right away Crossed the line around the changes of the summer Reaching out to call the color of the sky Passed around a moment clothed in mornings faster than we see Getting over all the time I had to worry Leaving all the changes far from far behind We relieve the tension only to find out the master’s name ---

Whenever I need to leave it all behind Or feel the need to get away I find a quiet place, far from the human race Out in the country Before the breathin’ air is gone Before the sun is just a bright spot in the nighttime Out where the rivers like to run I stand alone and take back somethin’ worth rememberin’ ---
