[Chorus: Neil Young]
Motorcycle Mama, won't you lay your big spike down?
Motorcycle Mama, won't you lay your big spike down?
I always get in trouble when you bring it around
Motorcycle Mama, won't you lay it down?
[Verse 1: Nicolette Larson]
Well I'm runnin', I'm runnin', I'm runnin' down the proud highway
Yeah I'm runnin', I'm runnin', I'm runnin' down the proud highway
And as long as I keep movin', I won't need a place to stay
[Chorus: Neil Young]
Motorcycle Mama, won't you lay your big spike down?
Motorcycle Mama, won't you lay your big spike down?
I always get in trouble when you bring that around
Motorcycle Mama, won't you lay it down?
[Verse 2: Nicolette Larson & Neil Young, Nicolette Larson]
Well I'm here to deliver, I hope you can read my mail, oh yeah
I just escaped last night from the Memory County jail
I see your box is open and your flag is up, my message is ready if there's time enough
[Chorus: Neil Young & Nicolette Larson, Nicolette Larson]
Motorcycle Mama, won't you lay your big spike down? (Down)
Motorcycle Mama, won't you lay your big spike down?
Motorcycle Mama, won't you lay it down?
