Lyrics
The bells started ringing, the girls started singing, the greyhound hit the road
The old man was driving, Wendell said no I am, the old man tuck & rolled
Larry started laughing, Rosemarie was clapping, & that’s when we lost our clothes
To avoid police detection, we hit the wrong direction, & that’s why the story goes
(Chorus)
Everybody’s going to Detroit
Everybody’s getting a Detroit T Shoit
Everybody going to Detroit
everybody’s getting a Detroit T shoit
The bus started hoppin, we made it out of Boston, we damn near lost control
The shocks were a shakin, the seat were a quaking, just like jelly roll
That’s when Wendell, put the peddle to the medal, straight through Baltimo
Lemmy said to Ruby, I think yer kinda groovy, let’s take this on the road
(Repeat chorus)
We reached Cincinnati, we parked in the alley, & all the rums were gone
There’s no need for sorrow, we’ll get there tomorow
By the break of dawn
(Solo & repeat chorus)
The bells started ringing, the girls started singing, the whole trip carried on
Snoozin in the daylight, cruising through the red lights, with help from cruise control
Somewhere west of Philly, Wendell popped a wheelie, & everybody rose
Darryl started laughing, Brenda started clapping, and as the story goes
(Repeat chorus)
The bells started ringing, the girls started singing, the whole trip carried on
With no need for sorrow, we’ll get there tomorow, by the break of dawn
