Harley Davidson Blues lyrics

I've got them broke down Harley Davidson blues

I started out with this basket case

I thought I'd made quite a find

I paid my money and took the thing home

Folks thought I was outta my mind

Cussin' and kickin' I got the thing runnin'

Headed down the road with my motor just a gunnin'

There came a knockin' noise down by my shoe

I've got them broke down Harley Davidson blues

I pulled off the road and got to a station

No one could figure out what in tarnation

Was makin' that knockin' noise down deep in her soul

So I twisted and tightened and pounded and turned

But the man shook his head and said "Well, I think she's burned"

Settin' by the road with a handful of screws

I've got the broke down Harley Davidson blues

Sittin' by the side ponderin' my fate

When up pulls a man, and I'm tryin' to look straight

Walked right up to me with a big old frown on his face

Said, "Boy, you get this here pile of junk

Lowdown rusty piece of funk

Call someone and have it moved from this place"

I've got them broke down Harley Davidson blues

"Say, boy, ehy you got a license?

Sure hope you got papers for that thing!

You don't have no warrants out on ya?"

"Huh?"

"Get this thing outta here"
