AL
I'm known from Peking to Hong Kong
From the West Coast to the Pecos
Hikin' cars is my game
In an automobile
I used to be fire on wheels
That's what earned me my name...
Ask anybody to tell you 'bout Lovin' Al
You can ask anybody, and anybody will tell you
There was a time when nobody
Could beat me doing what I do.
I'd punch out a ticket,
Slide under the wheel,
And right off the bat
Have it under control
Usin' one hand I'd spin 'er around
And without lookin' back
Put 'er straight in the hole
(spoken) People wonder how I do it. Ain't nothin' to it!
(sung)
'Cause I'm Lovin' Al, the wizard
"One-Swing-Al", that's me
Lovin' Al is a wizard
So don't be surprised at what you see
One swing in
One swing out
Look out
There he goes...
Why can't I be a rich man
With some big bucks in my jeans?
I'd buy me a brand new caddy
And a Cohiba cigar
'Cause you can't smoke dem' Pantella's
When you're ridin' in a rich man's car.
I see 'em get out with thier tuxedoes on
And when I get in I can smell the cologne
The music be up and I listen a-while
Just sittin' pretendin' like it was my own
(spoken) I may sit longer than I should. 'Cause it feels so good
(sung) To Lovin' Al, the wizard
