Lyrics A Harley Someday - David Allan Coe

A Harley Someday

Those Harley’s they cost so much money
A small bike is all he could buy
He covers it up on his car port
If anyone saw it he’d die
He acts just as tough as his buddies
They drink Harley Davidson beer
And he tells anyone that will listen
He’s buying a Panhead next year
And we all laugh and think it’s so funny
Especially when we hear him say
Right now I’m just learning to ride man
But I’ll have a Harley some day
He don’t take his bike to Daytona
But he carries his helmet along
And the Ironhorse Saloon shirt he’s wearing
Say’s bike week 1981
He’s a bonafide wanna be tough guy
With long hair and chains on his boots
He works 9 to 5 Monday through Friday
In loafers and Ivy League suits
And we all laugh and think it’s so funny
Especially when we hear him say
Right now I’m just learning to ride man
But I’ll have a Harley some day
And he’s thinking of getting a tattoo
And maybe an earring or two
As much as we hate to admit it
We all know what he’s going through
We say he’s a true weekend warrior
He’s wearing his old Harley hat
And the truth is it’s hard to remember
That we all started out just like that
And we all laugh and think it’s so funny
Especially when we hear him say
Right now I’m just learning to ride man
But I’ll have a Harley some day
Ah but I’ll have a Harley some day
