CHORUS
I GOT WHEELS, WHEELS ROLLING TOWARD THE COUNTY LINE
I GOT WHEELS, WHEELS AND MY BABY SHE’S LOOKIN’/FEELIN’ FINE
Whistle blows, get out of jail. Still got grease under my nails.
I push the shifter up to third. And pull away from the herd.
CHORUS
Streets are wet and the county dry. Moon is out like a late-night pie.
Booze is flowing strong and clean. I see the lights of Palestine.
CHORUS
Drinks are cold and the joint is hot. Dancing girls give it all they got.
I let one blow my dice for luck. She says to me, “You know I like to COOK.”
CHORUS
I put the Fifty-One in gear. Crank it up ‘cause I GOT NO FEAR.
We drive around, and around the bend. Till the sun comes out again.
REPEAT CHORUS
