Paul Simon Song - can anyone name it?

Question

I was listening to a random radio station the other day with my dad and this song came on - it sounded like the soundtrack to many an opening scene from movies, or tv series.

Anyway, I loved it, but the only thing my dad was able to tell me was that it was a Paul Simon song. I'm pretty desperate to find out the title of the song - so far I've downloaded about 30 of his songs spanning his solo career and haven't found it! The song, if I remember correctly, either has something to do with 'wheels' or rather has the word 'wheels' in it.

Does this ring a bell for anyone? Please help! Thank you x)

Answer 1

'cars are cars' or 'a poem on the underground wall'

Answer 2

For Simon/Garfunkle try this cd Book Ends has Mrs Robertson, Old Friend, Hazy Shade of winter, Bridge over troubeld water, Cats in the Cradle ect. John Denvers greatest hist would be the best to find his songs. Popular ones are Sunshine on My sholders, Country Roads, Leaving on a Jetplane (these are the ones I can remember off the top of my head) I grew up with my parents playing this stuff and I'm a big fan. These are some nice songs. Good luck!

Answer 3

Other than what was mentioned, I found....

Baby Driver

My daddy was the family bassman
My mamma was an engineer
And I was born one dark gray morn
With music coming in my ears
In my ears

They call me Baby Driver
And once upon a pair of wheels
Hit the road and I'm gone ah
What's my number
I wonder how your engine feels.
Ba ba ba ba
Scoot down the road
What's my number
I wonder how your engine feels.

My daddy was a prominent frogman
My mamma's in the Naval reserve
When I was young I carried a gun
But I never got the chance to serve
I did not serve.

They call me Baby Driver
And once upon a pair of wheels
Hit the road and I'm gone ah
What's my number
I wonder how your engine feels.
Ba ba ba ba
Scoot down the road
What's my number
I wonder how your engine feels.

My daddy got a big promotion
My mama got a raise in pay
There's no-one home, we're all alone
Oh come into my room and play
Yes we can play.

I'm not talking about your pigtails
But I'm talking 'bout your sex appeal
Hit the road and I'm gone ah
What's my number
I wonder how your engine.
Ba ba ba ba
Scoot down the road
What's my number
I wonder how your engine feels.
