John Lennon You Can't Catch Me song lyrics
I bought a brand new airmobile
'Twas a custom made, 'twas a Flight De Ville
With a powerful motor and a hideaway wing
Push in on the button, you will hear her sing
Now, you can't catch me
Baby, you can't catch me
'Cause if you get too close
You know I'm gone like a cool breeze
Hey, hey
Well, you walk
You walk
New Jersey Turnpike in the wee wee hours
I was rollin' slowly 'cause of drizzlin' shower
Here come a flat-top, he was movin' up with me
Then come wavin' goodbye in a little old souped-up jitney
I put my foot in the tank, I began to roll
Moanin' siren, 'twas the state patrol
I let out my wings, then I blew my horn
Bye-bye, New Jersey, I become airborne
You can't catch me
Baby, you can't catch me
'Cause if you get too close
You know I'm gone like a cool breeze
Hey
Well, you walk
Yeah, walk
Flyin' with my baby last Saturday night
Wasn't a grey cloud floatin' in sight
Big, full moon shinin' up above
Cuddle up, honey, be my love
Sweetest little thing that I ever seen
I'm gonna name you Maybellene
Flyin' on the beam, set on flight control
Radio tuned to rock 'n' roll
Two, three hours passed us by
Altitude dropped into five-o-five
Fuel consumption way too fast
Let's get on home before we run out of gas
Now, you can't catch me
Baby, you can't catch me
'Cause if you get too close
You know I'm gone like a cool breeze
Get it on
Yeah, walk
Get it on
Get it on, get it on
Do it
Get it on, get it on
You know you can't catch me, yes
I got your number
You ain't safe, buddy
I got you now, now
