Lyrics - Motorcycle Mama by 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 highwayriding 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.
Motorcycle
Mama why did you leave and where did you go. . .
Where did you go?
Why did you leave?
