Good lookin' woman Jerry Lee ever seen
C'mon girl you got my heart a really jamming
Go ahead and keep my mother humping motor running
Lets go why don't you put it on the floor
Woman you really got me humming keep my motor running
I got fuel injections Jerry Lee's got front wheels
I've got completed systems on this time
you'll really love the feel
Satin sheets crawl up and down my lovely bed
If you lift the pillow you can lay your lovely head
lets go, whooooo, put it on the floor
really got me humming, keep my motor running
Oh go Rock and roll baby
??????????????????????
let me go, I got mother humping on the floor
yeah, you really got ol' killer humming
why don't you keep my motor running
Keep My Motor Running
Roy Orbison's "Keep My Motor Running" stands as a quintessential example of his signature sound, blending lush orchestration with his distinctive, soaring vocals. Recorded during the height of his career, the track exemplifies the dramatic emotional range and theatrical production that defined his work in the late 1950s and early 1960s. The song captures the tension between romantic longing and the urgency of departure, a recurring theme in Orbison's catalog. Its arrangement, featuring sweeping strings and a driving rhythm, underscores the narrative of a lover urging a partner to stay, yet the underlying melody hints at the inevitable motion that defines the human condition. As a standalone recording, it remains a powerful testament to Orbison's ability to craft atmospheric, emotionally charged pop ballads that transcended their era to become enduring classics of rock and roll history.
