Harley
Lyricist:Don Henry
There was a motorcycle mama and her man With a wind-burnt tan and a Harley Roarin' through Bakersfield when her water broke They pulled into a hospital and for a little joke
They named him Harley They bought a sidecar And a small bandanna band And they loved their Harley
Slidin' sideways, up the coast Cruisin' highway one The sidecar came undone No one noticed
Thrashing through a golden meadow It came to rest right where A farmer's wife cried 'Jesus Christ has answered all our prayers'
And they named him Harley Because of a tattoo Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com That claimed his name was true And they loved their Harley
He was raised upon a farm, cradled in the arms Of Beulah and Barney But then at a restless age they unlocked his cage And he became a carny
There was a motorcycle daredevil deluxe Jumping fifty trucks at the fairgrounds A middle aged hippie couple way up in the stands Heard the crowd chanting 'loud, the name of this young man
And they called him Harley And that hippie couple smiled Could this be their long lost child? So they met Harley
Convinced him of the news When they compared tattoos And they loved their Harley
