Well I went to bed in Memphis

And I woke up in Hollywood

I got a quarter

in my pocket

And I'd call you if I could

But I don't know why

I gotta fly

I wanna rock and roll this party

I still wanna have some fun

Iwanna leave you feeling breathless

Show you how the west was won

But I gotta fly

I gotta fly o



[CHORUS:]

Like Steve McQueen

All I need's a fast machine

I'm gonna make it all right

Like Steve McQueen

Underneath your radar screen

You'll never catch me tonite o I ain't takin' shit off no one

Baby that was yesterday

I'm an all American rebel

Making my big getaway

Yeah you know it's time

I gotta fly



[CHORUS]



We got rockstars in the Whitehouse

All our popstars look like porn

All my heroes hit the highway

They don't hang out here no more

You can call me anytime

You can page me all night long

But you won't catch this freebird

I'll already be long gone

Like Steve McQueen

All we need's a fast machine

And we're gonna make it all right



[CHORUS]
