(Quatro/Tuckey)
Down in Motor City where I come from
People like their music loud
Motown was born down the east side
Detroit is the name of my town
Factory-workers, hippies and crew-cuts
Jumping up and down in their seats
In the daytime it sure looks different
But at night it's just a rock-n-roll beat
[Chorus:]
So rev my engine
Shine my machine
Drive me-pet me, baby
Fill me with Slo-Gin
Soul-brother likes his old Motown
The greaser still likes to jive
You can't knock a rocker for rockin'
It's what keeps this city alive
[Chorus]
Soul-brother likes his old Motown
The greaser still likes to jive
You can't knock a rocker for rockin'
It's what keeps this city alive
[Chorus]
