Petrol Head

Petrol Head - Sting

Lay down and rest your head

Stretch your body across my bed

Close your eyes I'll take you there

That open highway's waiting where

You'll know me just like I know you

Where every gospel word is true

I'll drive this car I'll be your guide

Just fasten your seat belt let's go for a ride

I'll take you someplace that you've never been before

A place you might have only dreamt about what's more

One road in and just one road out

I know this country inside out

I speak in tongues in tongues of fire

With sixteen wheels for my desire

300 horse in my V8

Close to one hundred MPH

And all the meters up in the red

Now don't you worry your pretty little petrol head

I'll take you someplace that you've never been before

A place you might have only dreamt about what's more

Like Moses driving to his promised land

Left turn at the burning bush a stick shift in my hand

Bring me my bow of burning gold

Bring me my arrows of desire

Bring me my spear o clouds unfold

Bring me my chariot of fire

I fought my way from hell to this

And drove my truck through a hail of fists

I ain't never killed no innocent man

Kept the engine running so I just ran

But I've been wounded I been shot

And this is all the thanks I got

A busted arm a busted lip

Let's climb aboard the mothership

I'll take you someplace that you've never been before

A place you might have only dreamt about what's more

Like moses driving to his promised land

Left turn at the burning bush a stick shift two stone tablets

God's commandments in my hands

300 horse in my V8

Close to one hundred MPH

All the meters up in the red

Now don't you worry your pretty little petrol head
