Sneakers Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You're like chrome and steel, a lightning wheel
You're dressed up, stripped down like a banana peel
You're unreal, babe
A full meal, babe
You're built straight from scratch, no seams, no patch
Lift the lid, lift the latch, you've battened down every hatch
You're a catch, babe
A perfect match, babe

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I'm a semi-sucker stumbling down the road
A real gone trucker since I dropped my load

[Verse 2]
I was wholly jive and only half alive
I went looking for a ride, and you swiped my side
We collide, babe
Deep and wide, babe
I was a hefty hunk of gas-guzzling junk
A total clunker, I ran, but I sweat, and I stunk
Like a funk, babe
I was sunk, babe

[Pre-Chorus 2]
You're a sweet hitchhiker with your soul in your shoes
You can take me our for a permanent cruise
Won't you choose me?

[Chorus]
Come on, baby
You can't refuse
Come on and take me
For a ride in your walking shoes

[Guitar Solo]
Yeah

[Verse 3]
You're a one-way ticket to a two-way street
Got me coming and going every time we meet
You're a treat, babe
So concrete, babe
I drove you to Moline from Aberdeen
You got something us local folks ain't never seen
You got feel, babe
My ideal, babe

[Pre-Chorus 3]
I'm a flat-tired floozy flopping out on you
No one can pump me up the way that you do
Can you move me?

[Chorus 2]
Come on, baby
You got nothing to lose
You can drive me crazy
With your walking shoes

[Chorus 3]
Come on, baby
Make it all come true
Take a trip, don't slip, don't drop me out
In the morning dew

[Chorus 4]
Come on, baby
You can't refuse
Take me one day, one step at a time
In those walking shoes, yeah
