[Verse]
F#
Late at night I was driving home
B
Feeling tired I was all alone
C# F#
I pulled in at the first truck stop motel
F#
There she stood like a dream in the night
B
Hair was long and her dress was tight
C# F#
Just one smile and I knew I was under her spell
[Chorus]
B
You got me running like a Detroit Diesel
F#
Got me humming like a Detroit Diesel
C#
Hear me coming like a Detroit Diesel
F#
Like I'm in overdrive
[Verse]
F#
She took my hand checked me in for the night
B
She said "Honey don't you put up a fight
C# F#
I want some loving and to you it's all for free."
F#
She got me blowing like a hurricane
B
So much good loving driving me insane
C# F#
Can't believe that you really happened to me
[Chorus]
B
You got me running like a Detroit Diesel
F#
Got me humming like a Detroit Diesel
C#
Hear me coming like a Detroit Diesel
F#
Like I'm in overdrive
[Verse]
F#
You turn me on like an electric light
B
You burn me up like a missle sight
C# F#
You got me running like a turbo nine forty-four
F#
You move my soul like an original sin
B
You detonate me like a firing pin
C# F#
When I leave you'll be coming back for more
[Chorus]
B
You got me running like a Detroit Diesel
F#
Got me humming like a Detroit Diesel
C#
Hear me coming like a Detroit Diesel
F#
Like I'm in overdrive
