My lovin' machine

Lyrics | The Lovin' Machine (1966)
The minute that I saw her
I knew I just had to have her
So I asked her if I could take her for a spin
When I heard her engine purrin'
And I saw her taillight blinkin'
I knew I'd never be the same again
So I her drove around the corner
Up the street and down the highway
Showin' off to everybody that I've seen
She's streamlined, sleek-lookin'
Smooth-runnin', fast-movin'
Breath-takin' lovin' machine
She's equipped with dual headlights
Padded dash and positive traction
Instant heat and a six-way swivel seat
Ain't no wonder then that all
The connoisseurs of fine machinery
Whistle at me as I drive her down the street
She's got two of the biggest
And the prettiest and the roundest
Softest, bluest eyes you've ever seen
She's a streamlined, sleek-lookin'
Smooth-runnin', fast-movin'
Breath-takin' lovin' machine
If I leave her for a minute
All the hot-rods gather 'round her
They just can't believe that such a thing is real
Oh they've never seen a chassy
Quite as slick or half as classy
They'd give anything to get behind the wheel
So I keep my little lover
Locked up tight and under cover
Give no one a chance to yell "mechanics lien"
She's streamlined, sleek-lookin'
Smooth-runnin', fast-movin'
Breath-takin' lovin' machine
She ain't too fast in the take-off
But she's a winner in the long run
And she's swell on the heels when she accelerates
If she shimmies just a little
At high speeds - well who's complainin'?
Fact of the matter is, I think it's kind of great!
There's a proper registration
Safety check and a set of license
Soon I'll take her anywhere I choose to be
She's streamlined, sleek-lookin'
Smooth-runnin', fast-movin'
Breath-takin' lovin' machine
