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.
