Well hop in the hack, turn on the key Pop in the clutch let the wheel roll free Not a cloud in the sky, such a sunny day Push in the button let the top ten play Come on honey, let me sing 'em away Come on honey, let me sing 'em away Oh, honey, let me sing your blues away Give me a little of that old time love 'Cause I ain't never had near enough Honey, walk that walk With style and grace This ain't no knock-down, drag-out race It doesn't matter much, pick any gear Grind you a pound and drop the rear Baby, baby, what can I say I'm here to drive those blues away I sent a letter to a man I know Said one for the money and two for the show I wait all summer for his reply Said three to get ready and four to fly Only two things in this world I love That's rock and roll and my turtle dove When I was a young man, I needed good luck But I'm a little bit older now and I know my stuff Come on honey let me sing 'em away Come on honey let me sing 'em away Oh honey let me sing your blues away
