lyrics

You ride down the street on your Honda,
Looking a bit like Peter Fonda;
As you disappear into the blue yonder,
I’m left to chew, spew and ponder.

When I see you smeared in leather,
You could knock me over like a feather;
I dream of a life together,
My emotions are stretched to a tether..

Take off your jacket and your baseball cap.
Jump off your saddle and leap on my lap.

Gearbox Gertie, ha ha
You're so dirty, oh oh
Gearbox Gertie, ha ha
You're so dirty, oh oh

When you fly by on your wheels,
You’ve no idea how my heart feels;
When I see you stride by in your heels,
The blood in my veins congeals.

You’re an goddess on rubber and chrome,
I can’t wait to take you home;
No matter where my mind doth roam,
My words for you would fill a tome.

Take off your jacket and your baseball cap.
Jump off your saddle and leap on my lap.

Gearbox Gertie, ha ha
You're so dirty, oh oh
Gearbox Gertie, ha ha
You're so dirty, oh oh

Gearbox Gertie, ha ha
You're so dirty, oh oh
Gearbox Gertie, ha ha
You're so dirty, oh oh
