Oh yeah
Somethin' gettin' wrong with my little machine
Oh yeah
Somethin' gettin' wrong with my little machine
Now an' she gotta standard carburetor
My baby been burnin' bad gasoline
Now I'm goin' do like you
I'm gonna fly up on the mountain top
Lord an' I don't find my baby
It ain't no telling' where I'll stop
Because, oh yeah
Somethin's gettin' wrong with my little machine
Now an' she gotta standard carburetor
Oh, but my baby burnin' bad gasoline
Well, I don't know, baby
I don't know what to do
You know, I don't know what you're pleadin'
Baby, or even gettin' mad with you
But I tell ya, ooh yeah, yeah
Somethin' gettin' wrong with my little machine
Now, you gotta standard carburetor
Oh, but you've been burnin' bad gasoline
Now play it for me
You all know how it feels, play
(harmonica, piano, drums)
Well, I don't know, baby
I don't know what to do
Baby, you is so sweet
But you just-a won't be true
But oh, yeah
Somethin' gettin' wrong with my little machine
Now she's got a standard carburetor
Oh, but my baby's been burnin' bad gasoline.
