Harley Davidson Songtext
von Grayson Capps

Well, the freebird lived upstairs
At the Hummingbird Hotel

Waited tables for the man
Downstairs at the grill
"I′m gonna fly someday"
She said just like my name
Coffee on table four, baby
The man over there want his extra cream
Tobacco coated fingertips
And nails done bright red

Mascara window frames to the souls that seldom visit
These men they're all the same
They love and they leave you blind

I′m gonna disappear someday
You know and I got the time

Harley Davidson, take me down Highway One
Cottonfield, Rivertown, before I turn thirty-one
On this lonely, love only road
On this lonely road


Tattoo-covered body
Showing pictures of her scrambled dreams
Skeletons and angels on her skin with broken wings
There ain't no future here at this
Hummingbird Hotel and Grill, she said
Smoking cigarettes all day
And popping these little white ephedrine pills

Harley Davidson, take me down Highway One
Cottonfield, Rivertown, before I turn thirty-one
On this lonely, love only road
On this lonely, love only road

The freebird she don't work no more
At the Hummingbird Hotel
I asked the man about her, he said
"Don′t you know she killed herself?"
Now I′m gonna fly someday
She said just like my name
Now I'm gonna rise up high
On these motorcycles, cycle lane

Harley Davidson, take me down Highway One
Cottonfield, Rivertown, before I turn thirty-one
On this lonely, love only road
On this lonely, love only road
