Ol' 55

My time went so quickly
I went lickety-splickly
out to my old '55
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
Stars beginning to fade
and I lead the parade
Just a-wishing I'd stayed a little longer
Oh, Lord, that the feeling's getting stronger.

Now six in the morning
gave me no warning
I had to be on my way.
Lights passing and trucks a flashing
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 a-wishing I'd stayed a little longer
Oh, Lord, that the feeling's getting stronger.
