Well my time went so quickly / I went lickety-splitly out to my old ’55
As I drove 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
Stars beginning to fade, and I lead the parade /Just a-wishing I’d stayed a little longer
Lord, don’t you know the feeling’s getting stronger

Six in the morning, gave me no warning / I had to be on my way
Now the cars are all passing me, Trucks are all flashing me
I’m headed 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 a-wishin’ I’d stayed a little longer
Lord, don’t you know, the feeling’s getting stronger

Well my time went so quickly / I went lickety-splitly out to my old ’55
As I drove away slowly, feeling so holy / God knows, I was feeling alive

And now the sun’s coming up, yes it is
I’m riding with Lady Luck / Freeway, cars and trucks . . .
