{{lyrics| | {{lyrics|well my time went so quickly | ||
i went lickety-splickly down 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 | |||
and freeway cars and trucks | |||
stars beginning to fade | |||
and i lead the parade | |||
just a-wishing i'd stayed a little longer | |||
and it's six in the morning | |||
gave me no warning | |||
i headed home from your place | |||
cars are all passing me | |||
trucks are all flashing me | |||
i headed home from your place | |||
and now the sun's coming up | |||
i'm riding with lady luck | |||
and freeway cars and trucks | |||
stars beginning to fade | |||
and i lead the parade | |||
just a-wishing i'd stayed a little longer | |||
and now the sun's coming up | |||
i'm riding with lady luck | |||
and yes i am... | |||
and freeway cars and trucks | |||
and freeway cars and trucks | |||
i'm riding with lady luck}} | |||
