PostSubject: Hear the Engines Roll Now - Classic Folk Tune   Fri Jul 17, 2009 1:21 am

With a pickle mind we kick the nipple beer,
steady as you go, we're flying over trout,
ghetto down the highway at the speed of light,
all I want to feel now is the wind in my eyes,
sack of monkeys in my pocket, my sister's ready to go.

hear the engines roll now, idiot control now,
hideous control now, ninny on the road now,
mini in control, wheels on fire, burning rubber tires.

blurry jelly rolls now, hiddy lets it go now,
niddy engines bow down, pittying a poor boy,
hear the engines roll, bees on pie, burning rubber tires.

The lyrics sound very contemporary.

Nice.

This is one of the better versions of Hear the Engines Roll Now.



I don't want to be posting youtube clips anymore, but Karl Erik forced me to post this via a a very menacing twitter tweet he tweeted.

There's nothing folkier than blues.
