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