Motorcycle Mama Lyrics - Singles - Harpo

Motorcycle Mama why did you leave and where did you go 

Motorcycle Mama I've been looking everywhere for you 

I remember in '65 when Jimi Hendrix was still alive 

Before we went to the Woodstock scene 

And turn on to the rock-machine 

We rode a red Harley Davidson as we tried to follow the sun. 

Motorcycle Mama why did you leave and where did you go 

. . . 

I remember in '67 we were into the flower-power heaven 

Riding up the silvery coast highway 

riding up in the Frisco bay 

Like Ravi Shanker I played his sitar 

And Maharishi Yogi was my Guru Star. 

Motorcycle Mama why did you leave and where did you go 

. . . 

Do you remember about Fritz the Cat 

And Dylan's Leopard-Skin Pill-box hat 

Sergant Peppers Lonely Heart Club Band 

He is a rider through the desert sand 

Listen all this makes me blue 

But most of all you know I'm missing you.
