You Can't Catch Me Lyrics


I bought a brand new airmobile
'Twas a custom made, 'twas a flightning deal
With a powerful motor and a hide away wing
Push in on the button, you will hear her singNow you can't catch me
Baby, you can't catch me
Cause if you get too close
You know I'm going' like cool breezeHey! Hey!
Well, you walk!
You walk!New Jersey turnpike in the wee wee hours
I was rolling slowly cause of drizzling showers
Here come a flat-top, he was moving up with me
Then come waving goodbye in a little old souped up jitney
I put my foot in the tank, I began to roll
Moaning siren, 'twas the state patrol
I let out my wings, then I blew my horn
Bye-bye, New Jersey, I become airborneNow you can't catch me
Baby, you can't catch me
Cause if you get too close

You know I'm going' like cool breezeHey!
Well, you walk!
Yeah, walk!I bought a brand new airmobile
'twas a custom made, 'twas a flightning deal
With a powerful motor and a hide away wing
Push in on the button, you will hear her singNow you can't catch me
Baby, you can't catch me
'cause if you get too close
You know I'm going' like cool breezeHey! Hey!
Well, you walk!
You walk!Flying with my baby last Saturday night
Wasn't a gray cloud floating in sight
Big, full moon, shining up above
Cuddle up, honey, be my loveSweetest little thing that I ever seen
I'm going to name you Maybellene
Flying on the beam, set on flight control
Radio tuned to rock and roll
Two, three hours passed us by,
Altitude dropped into five-o-five
Fuel consumption, way too fast
Let's get on home before we run out of gasNow you can't catch me,
Baby, you can't catch me
Cause if you get too close
You know I'm going' like cool breezeGet it on!
Yeah, walk!
Get it on, get it on, get it on, do it!
Get it on, get it on!
You know you can't catch me!

John Winston Ono Lennon (9 October 1940 – 8 December 1980) was an English musician, singer, songwriter, and peace activist, born in Liverpool, UK who gained worldwide fame as a founding member of The Beatles. With Paul McCartney, Lennon formed one of the most influential and successful songwriting partnerships of the 20th century and "wrote some of the most popular music in rock and roll history". He is ranked the second most successful songwriter in UK singles chart history after Paul McCartney.

Lennon revealed a rebellious nature, and biting wit, in his music, on film, in books, and at press conferences and interviews. He was controversial through his work as a peace activist and artist. After The Beatles, Lennon enjoyed a successful solo career (that started in 1968, 2 years before the break-up of The Beatles) with such acclaimed albums as John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band and Imagine and iconic songs such as "Give Peace a Chance" and "Imagine". After a self-imposed "retirement" to raise his son, Lennon reemerged with a comeback album, Double Fantasy, but was murdered less than one month after its release. The album would go on to win the 1981 Grammy Award for Album of the Year.
