McGuinn/Clark/Hillman Skate Date written by Roger & Camilla McGuinn Chris Hillman 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 G#F 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 G#F 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 G#F Copyright @ 1980 McGuinn Music/April First Music/Bar None Music(BMI) From the "City" LP Capital Records
