Motor Kine is a love letter to the wild sands of Baja Mexico where open land collides into the Pacific Ocean. I’ve sung Motor Kine live across the globe for years, with many different bands and instrumentation. This version provides insight into my 2020-2021 creative process.
Lyrics
Dusty roads through the canyon gorge
Like a bullet baby how we run
Steer me babe with a gentle hand
On into that old boy sun
I am your Motor Kine
I know you’ve seen me riding
Greased back I shine like lighting
Leg up mamma and take a ride
Dusty roads through the canyon gorge
Like a bullet baby how we run
Steer me babe with a gentle hand
On into that old boy sun
Your desert is of the rarest beauty
I’ve never seen the like
Your sands they give me my water
Your sun keeps me alive
Race down the pacific ocean
Run down those Mexico sands
Just for nothing babe, just cause I want to
Gonna fly all across these lands
Motor Kine don’t take low octane
Get yourself out and buy me some premium fuel
Motor Kine don’t run on that cheap stuff
Ease your hand mamma, keep me cool
Race down the pacific ocean
Run down those Mexico sands
Just for nothing babe, just cause I want to
Gonna fly all across these lands
