exploring the multiverses sound by sound and word by word
Story behind the song
story behind the song: once upon a grain truck (yep i was a lousy truck driver) , personalized and adapted with hints of a muse here and there. lovely lorry just sounds better than terrific truck.
Lyrics
took her for a ride
out there on the road
past the leaving sign
destination unknown
took her for a spin
out there we'd be gone
pushed her lighter in again
we'd be smoking til the dawn
and sometimes, yeah sometimes i think
i might be sorry
that sometimes, yeah sometimes i dream
i'm still riding lovely lorry
look she told me she ain't much
but i love the way she feels
nice profile, stacks red not rust
and those whitewalled wheels
look i know i ain't the one
cause i ain't got the touch
to shift her gears and make her run
without burning out her clutch
and sometimes, sometimes i dream
another end to this story
that sometimes, yeah sometimes i believe
i'm still in love with lovely lorry
she ain't no pickup truck
though her high beams are much desired
and bumpers just enough
but no overwide sign required
sometimes she brings me luck
even when i'm not her driver
have faith in god, the sticker stuck
between her tail lights of wild fire
and sometimes, sometimes it seems
she's lost in timeless glory
that sometimes, yeah sometimes i dream
i'm still riding lovely lorry
