Harley Across The Sky

[Ray Brookes]

Chrome and leather engine hot
One gear stripped lights are shot
So damn tired an' I gotta be honest
Wouldn't ride so fast; just on a promise
Bike is roaring heads are turning
Grips are sweaty; seat is burning
Road's a death trap do or die
Riding this Harley across the sky

Comin' home; comin' home fast
We gonna love long time; gonna make it last
No wham bam, mama; no hit and run
You got the target I got the gun
Cops have given up; left them behind
Rock n Roll bump an' grind
Belly's tight grit in my eye
Riding this Harley across the sky

So here I am God damn and blast
Stuck on the roadside out of gas
Passion's dead; back is bowed
Pushing this Harley along the road

Absolutely wonderful Ray... some super guitar picking in there, but the winner is the song. Deserving of a wider audience... this would tear the house down played live.

A real mover.

Cool little number - really enjoyed the bluegrass flavor. Well done!

[Farrell Jackson]

Ha ha I love the lyric Ray! I had a Harley in my younger days and your description of the Harley in the song wasn't far off from mine. Some fine chickin' pickin' on the guitar.  A great listen and fun song...send it off to Nashville!

Great tune, Ray! Pretty pickin' and the lyrics are a lit of fun.
Really well written and performed.

Awww.... YESSS. Love this.

I'm about to post a thing with some telecastering on it... but I had to fake most of it!!

This is the real deal - hats off to you sir.

Magnificent.

Some realy fine picking going on here, Ray.  And you're not so bad on the old mouth organ either!  Great song.

I always preferred four wheels myself.
