shovelhead blues
Only one pipe is puffin'
But the motor keeps huffin
I'm sure the noise is 'bound to amuse
The pushrods keep on tappin
And the rockers keep on rappin
Think she's tryin' to leave me more clues?
The drive chain's stereched and clackin'
Don't help the guard keeps crackin'
Probably me just torqun' the screws
The seat is still a cushion
'Cause I do mostly pushin'
My face turnin' all funny red hues
Keep on tryn' & fixin'
Tinker and chance and tapin'
Climbing on board and prayin'
Lord, Lord,these dues I'm payin'
I got them old ShovelHead blues
Think that red dots a stop sign
But I just ain't got the time
These old brakes sure could use new shoes
The clutch is badly slippin'
Good thang the tars ain't grippin'
On all the oil she's tryn' to lose
The nights still a mystery
I ain't got no lights to see
Why does she keep blowin' the fuse?
But she's MY piece of heaven
When she purrs like a kitten
Hell, I can go were I choose
Then I will be rid of them
And be all but done with them
Smile for a little while
Maybe make it one more mile
Dem' rattyass ol' ShovleHead Blues!
