Last night I had a date with my Marylou
No gas for my car I didn't know what to do
She called me said I love you please don't be late
So I went and picked her up in my rollar skates
Skate date rolling down the street
Skate date feeling so elite
Skate date I got wings on my fate
Now the streets are empty cause no one can drive
Me and my baby feeling so alive
Going ninety miles an hour with my roller queen
And I hope they never find any gasoline
Skate date rolling down the street
Skate date feeling so elite
Skate date I got wings on my fate
The air is so clear we're both feeling great
We're really working out on our roller skates
There's nothing like it for doing the town
Me and my baby when there's no one around
Skating down the highway just to see how it feels
Me and Marylou we got sixteen wheels
We don't have to worry about the highway patrol
Cause they don't have the gasoline to roll
Skate date rolling down the street
Skate date feeling so elite
Skate date I got wings on my fate
