Heavy Metal (Don't Mean Rock and Roll to Me) Lyrics
Some days I think, this old machine is out to get me
Some days she does what I tell her
It's like dancing with a widow-maker, forty hours a week
I'm talkin' about a big ol' D-10 Caterpillar
Chorus;
I don't know why I like to drive 'm like I do
It ain't nothin' but a hundred seventy-five thousand pounds of steel
Could be the money, Babe, could be the power
Could be, I love the way it feels
Could be, I love the way it feels
But you know, she's mighty unforgiv'n' and you got to pay attention
'Cause D-10 can be the death of you
But I get her all fired up and I can feel it in my soul
And it's hard to tell, just who's drivin' who
I can move Alaska all the way to Beirut
I can bulldoze a beeline from here to Peru
I can push the Rocky Mountains into the sea
Oh, Heavy Metal don't mean rock 'n' roll to me
-Solo-
You know, I'm a modern day mule skinner, drivin' ten thousand mules
So to say a little prayer every day
Lord, just let me get her turned around
Without fallin' off this mountain
You know, the boss don't like me, treatin' his D-10 that way
Chorus:
Could be, I love the way it feels
Could be,I love the way it feels
-Solo-
