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