The night was young, I thought
When she stood at the door
With her bare feet full of sand
The moonlight let me see
She waved with a key
An empty bottle in her hand
(And she said)
Hey, I gotta go
And I've gotta take your
Chrome heart for this ride
(Yes she said)
Hey, I gotta go
Let your chrome heart guide me
Through that lonely night
I thought I had dream
As then a headlight's beam
Shattered by a V8 sound
But with the morning sun
I found the car was gone with
Rubber burned into the ground
(And she said)
Hey, I gotta go
And I've gotta take your
Chrome heart for a ride
(Yes she said)
Hey, I gotta go
Let your chrome heart rule
The road, dark and wide
She did not get that far
And as they found the car
Her skin was cold
Her eyes were closed
"She must have lost control
The wine did take its toll"
Gently the officer disclosed
