"Sheryl Crow" Lyrics

Marjory Lee releases her new single “Sheryl Crow” as an homage to the rock legend, her inspiration in Lee’s musical career and the outlet her music provided while Marjory Lee navigated teenage years to adulthood. The song lyrically plays on Sheryl Crow’s top hits alongside pop hooks and Americana storytelling of Marjory Lee living them and growing through them.

I was at a loss
So I put the keys in the ignition
It took three times to turn it over and go
Coffee in hand 
This old stick on the open highway
Poppin’ the clutch 
Shifting the gears
Sheryl crow crankin on the radio
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh 

And it made me happy
That change it did me good
That winding road up the coast
Steve McQueen riding shotgun
Something said run baby run
To the pavement calling me home
So I had redemption day in those two lanes
Found out where all the love had gone
Some days all I wanna do is get out and go
And hit a long road with Sheryl Crow

Taking it back
6 am the drive to high school
Was I strong enough to make it through
Pulling up in the parking lot
I’d rather be late and risk the clock
So I could lay back and dream of a longer ride with you
Crankin’ on the radio
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh 

And it made me happy
That change it did me good
That winding road up the coast
Steve McQueen riding shotgun
Something said run baby run
To the pavement calling me home
So I had redemption day in those two lanes
Found out where all the love had gone
Some days all I wanna do is get out and go
And hit a long road with Sheryl Crow 

So I’m thankful for all that I've learned with her on my radio
Be it motown or the blues
A sunny day or getting back to your roots
Love yourself and what you do
Let the light in your eyes shine through

And now
I roll my windows down
Throw on my shades 
Don’t care if its too loud
Sheryl crow crankin on the radio
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh 

And it made me happy
That change it did me good
That winding road up the coast
Steve McQueen riding shotgun
Something said run baby run
To the pavement calling me home
So now I have this guitar and all these songs 
About all the love that’s come and gone
Some days all I wanna do is get out and go
And hit a long road with Sheryl Crow
