Lyrics
[Intro] Big spike down I always get in trouble when you bring that around Motorcycle Mama, won't you lay it down, down, down? [Verse 1] Then, uh, I'm runnin', I'm runnin' Runnin' down the proud highway This is Motorcyle Mama singing I'm runnin', I'm runnin' Runnin' down that proud highway And as long as I keep movin' I don't need a place to stay [Chorus] Motorcycle Mama, won't you lay your big spike down? Motorcycle Mama, won't you lay your big spike down? I always get in trouble when you bring that around Oh, Motorcycle Mama, won't you lay it down for me? [Verse 2] And then, uh, Motorcyle Mama sings I'm here to deliver, I hope that you can read my mail I just escaped last night from the Memory County jail I see your box is open and your flag is up My message is ready if there's time enough, ooh [Chorus] Motorcycle Mama, won't you lay your big spike down? Motorcycle Mama, won't you lay your big spike down? I always get in trouble when you bring that around Motorcycle Mama, won't you lay it down? [Outro] Oh, and that's a killer, oh That's like the— If you heat up some coffee, I'll do it for you
