Motorcycle Mama by Neil Young Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1978

[Chorus: Neil Young]
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 it around
Motorcycle Mama
Won't you lay it down?

[Verse 1: Nicolette Larson]
Well I'm runnin', I'm runnin'
I'm runnin' down the proud highway
Yeah I'm runnin', I'm runnin'
I'm runnin' down the proud highway
And as long as I keep movin'
I won't need a place to stay

[Chorus: Neil Young]
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?
[Verse 2: Nicolette Larson & Neil Young, Nicolette Larson]
Well I'm here to deliver
I hope you can read my mail, oh yeah
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

[Chorus: Neil Young & Nicolette Larson, Nicolette Larson]
Motorcycle Mama
Won't you lay your big spike down? (Down)
Motorcycle Mama
Won't you lay your big spike down?
Motorcycle Mama
Won't you lay it down?
