Brand New Key

Janis Joplin


I rode my bicycle past your window last night
I roller skated to your door at daylight
It almost seems like you're avoiding me
I'm okay alone, but you got something I need Well,

I got a brand new pair of roller skates
You got a brand new key
I think that we should get together and try them out you see
I been looking around awhile
You got something for me
Oh! I got a brand new pair of roller skates
You got a brand new key

I ride my bike,
I roller skate, don't drive no car
Don't go too fast, but I go pretty far
For somebody who don't drive I been all around the world
Some people say, I done all right for a girl

I asked your mother if you were at home
She said, yes .. but you weren't alone
Oh, sometimes I think that you're avoiding me
I'm okay alone, but you've got something I need Well,

I got a brand new pair of roller skates
You got a brand new key
I think that we should get together and try them out to see La la la la la la la la, la la la la la la
Oh! I got a brand new pair of roller skates
You got a brand new key.
