Lyrics
Well, I stepped out of the prison
And there was Trudy Sue
Pen-pals for a year and a half
We both knew this love was true
It’s a Harley road-life that we’ve made
Stretching ‘cross this country fair
Yeah the rain and snow and sunshine
They meet us in the air
We’ve criss-crossed so many different states
Trudy Sue ‘n me
Barely holding that big hog together
From sea to shining sea
We lose a part or drop a piece
To the blacktop from time to time
But ain’t no rattle ‘tween Trudy Sue
And this ride-or-die back of mine
Ain’t no rattle ‘tween Trudy Sue ‘n Me, Yeah, Yeah
We Got hitched in Johnnie and Leone’s yard
Cathedral of grapefruit trees
I fancied up her dad’s old Falcon
For the photos of family!
We still have alcohol from that bash
They said we did it right
So crazy Trudy’s friend Brenda rocked
A topless dance ‘fore midnight
We’ve criss-crossed so many different states
Trudy Sue ‘n me
Barely holding that big hog together
From sea to shining sea
We lose a part or drop a piece
To the blacktop from time to time
But ain’t no rattle ‘tween Trudy Sue
And this ride-or-die back of mine
Ain’t no rattle ‘tween Trudy Sue ‘n Me, Yeah, Yeah
Now She’s the Queen of two thrones—
Me ‘n my Harley
She has a thing or two to say
When the ladies flirt, you see
She tells ‘em, “You can ride the bike
OR you can ride him
But you ain’t riding both—
Together, they belong to me!”
Yeah, that’s what my Trudy Sue Says
Instrumental—chorus members dancing, SONGWRITER playing lead guitar
We’ve criss-crossed so many different states
Trudy Sue ‘n me
Barely holding that big hog together
From sea to shining sea
We lose a part or drop a piece
To the blacktop from time to time
But ain’t no rattle ‘tween Trudy Sue
And this ride-or-die back of mine
There Ain’t no rattle ‘tween Trudy Sue
And this ride-or-die back of mine
Ain’t no rattle ‘tween Trudy Sue ‘n Me, Yeah, Yeah
