Lyrics

Baby Driver

ŠPaul Simon, released on Bridge Over Troubled Water (Simon and Garfunkel) 1970

.

My daddy was the family bassman

My mamma was an engineer

And I was born one dark gray morn

With music coming in my ears

In my ears.

.

[Chorus:]

They call me Baby Driver

And once upon a pair of wheels

Hit the road and I'm gone

What's my number

I wonder how your engine feels

Ba ba ba ba

Scoot down the road

What's my number

I wonder how your engine feels.

.

My daddy was a prominent frogman

My mamma's in the Naval reserve

When I was young I carried a gun

But I never got the chance to serve

I did not serve.

.

[Chorus]

.

My daddy got a big promotion

My mamma got a raise in pay

There's no-one home, we're all alone

Oh come into my room and play

Yes we can play.

.

I'm not talking about your pigtails

But I'm talking 'bout your sex appeal

Hit the road and I'm gone ah

What's my number

I wonder how your engine feels.

Ba ba ba ba

Scoot down the road

What's my number

I wonder how your engine feels.

.
