Sha Na Na Motor Man


Sha Na Na — Motor Man Lyrics

I'm a comin' on fast,
I'm a hangin' the curve,
Try to pass me, man,
If you've got the nerve.
---
I'll see you in my rearview,
As I'm a takin' the hill,
Is that all you got?
It's like you're standin' still.

I say zoom, zoom,
You'd better give me some room,
Zoom, zoom,
I'm about to lower the boom,
Zoom, zoom,
I'll be passing you soon,
Zoom, zoom,
Like a rocket to the moon.
---
I'll see you at the finish,
Don't you understand?
You don't stand a chance,
Against the motor man.

Open it up, daddy,
Give your best shot,
Look out now,
'cause you're about to be caught.
---
A full-open throttle,
Kickin' it in gear,
Adios baby,
You know I'm outta' here.

I say zoom, zoom,
You'd better give me some room,
Zoom, zoom,
I'm about to lower the boom,
Zoom, zoom,
Well I'll be passing you soon,
Zoom, zoom,
Like a rocket to the moon.
---
See you at the finish,
Don't you understand?
You don't stand a chance,
Against the motor man.

[Instrumental]
(Let it ride Rocky! Let it ride!)

I've got the engine,
Under the hood,
You'll never catch me, man,
I'm running good.
---
I've got the power,
Yeah, I've got the thrust,
Sorry there buddy,
But you'll be eatin' my dust.

I say zoom, zoom,
You'd better give me some room,
Zoom, zoom,
I'm about to lower the boom,
Zoom, zoom,
Well I'll be passing you soon,
Zoom, zoom,
Like a rocket to the moon.
---
I'll see you at the finish,
Don't you understand?
You don't stand a chance,
Against the motor man.

I say zoom, zoom,
You'd better give me some room,
Zoom, zoom,
I'm about to lower the boom,
Zoom, zoom,
I'll be passing you soon,
Zoom, zoom,
Like a rocket to the moon.
---
I'll see you at the finish,
Don't you understand?
You don't stand a chance,
Against the motor man.

I said, zoom, zoom,
Zoom, zoom,
Zoom, zoom, yeah,
Motor, motor, motor man.
---
I'm a motor, motor, motor man.
I'm a motor, motor, motor man.
Zoom, zoom,
Motor man.
Zoom, zoom, yeah,
Zoom, zoom, yeah,
I'm your motor man.
---
Zoom, zoom,
Zoom, zoom, baby,
I'm your motor man.
Zoom, zoom,
Zoom, zoom,
Motor man.
[Fade out.]
