LYRICS
Well, my time went so quickly
I went licketysplitly out to my ol' fiftyfive
As I pulled away slowly, feeling so holy
God knows I was feeling alive

Now the sun's coming up, I'm riding with Lady Luck
Freeway cars and trucks
Stars beginning to fade, and I lead the parade
Just awishing I'd stayed a little longer
Oh Lord, let me tell you that the feeling getting stronger

And it's six in the morning
Gave me no warning, I had to be on my way
Well, there's trucks all apassing me, and the lights all aflashin'
I'm on my way home from your place

And now the sun's coming up, I'm riding with Lady Luck
Freeway cars and trucks
Stars beginning to fade, and I lead the parade
Just awishing I'd stayed a little longer
Oh Lord, let me tell you the feeling getting stronger

And my time went so quickly
I went licketysplitly out to my ol' fiftyfive
As I pulled away slowly, feeling so holy
God knows I was feeling alive

And now the sun's coming up, I'm riding with Lady Luck
Freeway cars and trucks
Freeway cars and trucks
Freeway cars and trucks
