American alternative country-southern Rock-Band
[Lucero - Bikeriders lyrics]
Kathy met a girlfriend at
A place around Grant
Swore if she got out alive she'd
Not go back again
Fellas didn't know her and they
Scared her half to death
Hand prints on her jeans
She would have just got up and left
That's when she saw Benny standing
Over by the bar
Sat back down and waited 'til
He came over to talk later on that night
As she was walking out the door
Benny started up his bike and the
Boys came out for more
They picked her up and put her
On the back of Benny's bike
Now Kathy's been with Benny Bauer
Ever since that night
She's tried to leave him many times
Can't quite get away
Seen more jails and courts and laywers
Than she'd like to say
That Benny's always been a fighter
That'll never change
Kathy takes him home and heals him up
It's all the same
He made it from the club room all
The way out to the street
They beat him with the barstools but
He made it on his feet
Kathy's running to her boy
Picks him up and takes him home
And Benny's crying "Kathy please
I'm sorry don't you know?"
I'm sorry don't you know
I'm sorry don't you know?
At a bar they call Stop Light
The fellas drink their beer
Women with their hair done up
They make it very clear
Which one of the fellas all is
Theirs and can't be touched
They're tellin' me that motorcycle
Riders just give up
They're talkin' to the pretty ladies
Everyone they can
I never seen the trouble caused
All by just one dance
If Benny don't get himself shot tonight
I wish he did when he gets home
Now Kathy's dating Benny and he
Keeps her by his side
Kathy's still the cutest girl these
Boys will ever find riders line up BSA's out
On the scrambler's tracks levi's, jeans
And a leather jacket numbers on their backs
Benny's bike is too big to race up 250 class
They make him start way up the hill
Up by the railroad tracks
Tomorrow, they'll all ride across
The Illinois state line
Motorcycle Blessing at the
St Christopher Shrine
Kathy's walking out the door
Leaving Benny all alone
And Benny's crying "Kathy please
Baby don't you go"
Baby don't you go, baby don't you go
Kathy mean it this time
Just leave in the middle of the night
His wallet's on your table
Boots on your floor the car is parked right
Outside your back door
So leave him asleep in your bed and
You're halfway to Chicago before
Goodbye is said
A place around Grant
Swore if she got out alive she'd
Not go back again
Fellas didn't know her and they
Scared her half to death
Hand prints on her jeans
She would have just got up and left
That's when she saw Benny standing
Over by the bar
Sat back down and waited 'til
He came over to talk later on that night
As she was walking out the door
