I¡¯ve been out on this highway now
Five days in a row
My words all run together
My feet are movin¡¯ slow
I¡¯ve got to stop and eat
While it¡¯s still light
There¡¯s a local angel sitting on my right
Do you believe in love at first sight
Baby, you look good to me tonight

I¡¯m ordinarily very shy
And I¡¯d be polite if I had time
Baby, you look good to me tonight
Tomorrow, I¡¯ll be good and gone
Please don¡¯t make me wait that long
Baby, you look good to me tonight

¡°I get off at eleven,¡± she said
And walked away
She poured a cup of coffee and
She brought it on a tray
She said, ¡°It would be nice if you could stay
You¡¯re the best idea I¡¯ve had all day
Usually I put up a fight but
Baby, you look good to me tonight.¡±

Well I¡¯m ordinarily very shy
But I grinned at her as I ate my pie
Baby, you look good to me tonight
I thought I must be in a dream
When she asked me if I wanted cream
Baby, you look good to me tonight

All in all you know
It¡¯s not a bad life on the road
If you¡¯ve got wheels to roll
And lucky stars above
Your destiny¡¯s your own
You go as far as you can go
And if there¡¯s time to sleep
There¡¯s time to make love

I came, I saw, I conquered
But I rode off in the sun
But I know the look she left with me
Keeps telling me she won
Her face is the only thing I see
Whispering those words of prophesy

¡°I may come easy, but I don¡¯t come free
You¡¯re never gonna see the last of me¡±
Baby, you look good to me tonight
I was born to love you now can¡¯t you see
Baby, you look good to me tonight
I¡¯m ordinarily very shy
But I take the time to satisfy
Baby, you look good to me tonight
