Keep me rolling
Rolling on down them hills
Just keep me rolling
I’ve had my share of thrills
I don’t care who you are
Just go ahead or stay away
We don’t race strangers
I don’t care what you say
So go ahead and stare
Me and my bike, we’re outta time,
Moving memories in her engine.
Takes more than your motoring maturity
To understand that previous line
Meanwhile here’s a smile
Obviously you recognize the bike
Maybe your daddy had one
I simply earned mine
It didn’t stop me
Becoming a collector
Of a specific time
Average age increasing
Especially those of my kind
Well kid, I stick my chest out
In pride but all I can see
Is you sticking out your behind
Take it away; take it away
That’s all I can say.
Let’s meet in another five years
And count your parts that rot away
New things are hardly built to last
Unless you know the questions to ask
Another Yezdi will always come my way
But I’d keep just one and buy a Jawa any day
Look! I gotta admit it
I’ve got decades of my life
Now behind this handlebar
My pillion even became my wife
Still everyone wants me to buy a car
Here we go again, staring ahead
Through dust, traffic and rain
I will always defend what I love
Life is Gods maintenance bill
For the heart’s an engine we cannot kill
If you love your bike, it’ll last
Don’t forget; headlights and brakes don’t last
Not my will but Yezdi’s be done
Now excuse me, I gotta run.
