Harley

(앨범: Time Passes By - 1991)

There was a motorcycle mama and her man
With a wind-burnt tan and a Harley
Roaring through Bakersfield when her water broke
They pulled into a hospital and for a little joke

They named him Harley
They bought a sidecar and
A small bandana band
And they loved their Harley

Sliding sideways up the coast cruising Highway One
The sidecar came undone... No one noticed
Thrashing through a golden meadow
It came to rest right where a farmer's wife cried
"Jesus Christ has answered all our prayers"

And they named him Harley
Because of a tatoo
That claimed his name was true
And they loved their Harley

He was raised upon a farm
Cradled in the arms
Of Beulah and Barney
But then at a restless age
They unlocked his cage
And he became a carney

There was a motorcycle daredevil deluxe
Jumping fifty trucks at the fairgrounds
A middle-aged hippie couple way up in the stands
Heard the crowd chanting loud
The name of this young man

And they called him Harley
And that hippie couple smiled
Could this be their long-lost child

So they met Harley
Convinced him of the news
When they compared tatoos
And they loved their Harley
