Said farewell to my last hotel 
It was never much kind of abode 
Glasgow town never brought me down 
When I was heading out on the road 
Carlisle city never looked so pretty 
And the Kendal Freeway's fast 
Slowdown driver, want to stay alive,
I want to make this journey last 

Helen, hell on wheels 
Ain't nobody else gonna know the way she feels 
Helen, hell on wheels
Take her away 

M-6 south down to Liverpool
Where they play the west coast sound
Sailor Sam, he came from Birmingham 
But he never will be found 
Doing fine when a London sign 
Greets me like a long lost friend
Mister motor won't you check her out
She's got to take me back again 

Helen, hell on wheels
Ain't nobody else gonna know the way she feels 
Helen, hell on wheels
And they never gonna take her away
