Ol’ 55 Lyrics by Eric Andersen

Be True To You

1975

Well, my time went so quickly
I went lickety-splitly out to my ol' 55
As I pulled away slowly, feeling so holy
God knows I was feeling alive

And now the sun's coming up
I'm riding with Lady Luck
Freeway, cars and trucks
Stars beginning to fade
And I lead the parade
Just a-wishing I'd stayed a little longer
Lord, don't you know, the feeling's getting stronger

Six in the morning, gave me no warning
I had to be on my way
Now the cars are all passing me
Trucks are flashing me
I headed home from your place

And now the sun's coming up
I'm riding with Lady Luck
Freeway, cars and trucks
Stars beginning to fade
And I lead the parade
Just a-wishing I'd stayed a little longer
Lord, don't you know, the feeling's gеtting stronger
