Harpo - Motorcycle Mama lyrics

rate me

Motorcycle Mama why did you leave and where did you go

Motorcycle Mama I've been looking everywhere for you

I remember in '65 when Jimi Hendrix was still alive

Before we went to the Woodstock scene

And turn on to the rock-machine

We rode a red Harley Davidson as we tried to follow the sun.

Motorcycle Mama why did you leave and where did you go

. . .

I remember in '67 we were into the flower-power heaven

Riding up the silvery coast highway

riding up in the Frisco bay

Like Ravi Shanker I played his sitar

And Maharishi Yogi was my Guru Star.

Motorcycle Mama why did you leave and where did you go

. . .

Do you remember about Fritz the Cat

And Dylan's Leopard-Skin Pill-box hat

Sergant Peppers Lonely Heart Club Band

He is a rider through the desert sand

Listen all this makes me blue

But most of all you know I'm missing you.

Motorcycle Mama why did you leave and where did you go

. . .

Where did you go? Why did you leave?
