(song written by J. New)
I used to be wound up with nervous intent
I always had my foot on the gas
Almost burnt out by twenty one
My life was pushin’ by so fast
The people you know, that a life of speed
It never really goes nowhere
It’s those subtle moves and easy grooves
That's still gonna get you there
They call it so oh oh oh oul cruisin’,
They call it so oh oh oh oul cruisin’
I used to strike out with all the ladies
I guess I pushed ‘em much too hard
I wanted so to impress, that I just never guessed
My love was held in such low regard
But a real fine girl, she’s a friend of mine
And I love her to this day
She calmed me down, turned me around
She showed me there’s a better way
She got me so oh oh oh oul cruisin’
She got me so oh oh oh oul cruisin’
Guitar solo
Pedal steel solo
You’re chasin’ that money
You’re chasin’ your fate
Just take it easy and try to concentrate
‘Cos it’s so oh oh oh oul cruisin’
Mmm Momma so oh oh oh oul cruisin’
We’re goin’ so oh oh oh oul cruisin’
Yeah we’re goin’ so oh oh oh oul cruisin’
