Oh yes, somethin's gettin' wrong with my little machine
Oh yes, somethin's gettin' wrong with my little machine
Now she got a standard carburetor, my baby been burnin' bad gasoline
Now I'm gonna do like the eagle, I'm gonna fly on the mountain top
Lord and if I don't find my baby, it ain't no tellin' where I'll stop
Because oh yes, somethin's gettin' wrong with my little machine
Now she got a 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 wanna hurt your feelings, baby I'm even gettin' mad with you
But I tell you oh yes, some's gettin' wrong with my little machine
Now you got a standard carburetor, oh but you been burnin' bad gasoline
Well I don't know baby, I don't know what to do
Baby you is so sweet, but you just won't be true
But oh yes, somethin's gettin' wrong with my little machine
Now she's got a standard carburetor, oh but my baby been burnin' bad gasoline
