The Little Old Lady From Transylvania
The Ghouls Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm the little old lady from Transylvania
Go Natasha go Natasha go Natasha go
I'm known from London to Pennsylvania
Go Natasha go Natasha go Natasha go
I drive dirt tracks through the mud
It's the little old lady from Transylvania
I can shut down Bela and Boris too
Go Natasha go Natasha go Natasha go
My fuel injection is witches' brew
Go Natasha go Natasha go Natasha go
My car's painted bright poison apple red
With pipes loud enough to wake up the dead
It's the little old lady from Transylvania
Oh my I drive real fast and i'm really hip
I'm the sweetheart of the vampire crypt
When the moon is full i go kinda hairy
Making trial runs through the cemetery
I'm the little old lady from Transylvania
Go Natasha go Natasha go Natasha go
I'm known from London to Pennsylvania
Go Natasha go Natasha go Natasha go
I drive dirt tracks through the mud
I guess you might say racing's in my blood
It's the little old lady from Transylvania
