Motorcycle Mama [German translation]

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 round

Motorcycle Mama

Won't you lay it down.

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.

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 round

Motorcycle Mama

Won't you lay it down.

Well I'm here to deliver

I hope you can read my mail

I just escaped last night

From the memory county jail

I see your box is open

And you flag is up

My message is ready

If there's time enough.

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 round

Motorcycle Mama

Won't you lay it down.
