keep the motor running


keep the motor running
I won't be long
time flies when you're doing 
something you know is wrong
I'm going to mosey in this bank
give the teller a note
take all the money
and that's all she wrote

you and me baby
we got the world on a string
we can be who we want
we can afford everything
whatever's your pleasure, babe
whatever your heart desires
you and me, sugar
we're gonna set the world on fire

          I will do anything for you
          anything you want me to do
          only one request I ask of you
          keep the motor running
          keep the motor running

you got your sunglasses on
you got those skin-tight jeans
you got your eyes out for
a man of means
and I'm that man
I ain't no little boy
and I got a past
I would love to destroy

          I will do anything for you
          anything you want me to do
          I only have one job for you
          keep the motor running
          keep the motor running

money in the bag
gasoline in the tank
a whole lot of people
crying in the bank
sweetheart, I believe
the future's ours to take
hey, where you going?
slow down
step on the brake

           I will do anything for you
           anything you want me to do
           I'm begging of you
           keep the motor running
           keep the motor running
