Oh, Henry was a renegade
Never liked to play it safe
One component at a time

There's got to be a better way
Ohh people came from miles around
Searching for a steady job

Welcome to the Motor Town
Boomin' like an atom bomb


Bridge:
Oh, Henry was the end of the story,
Then everything went wrong

And we'll return it to its former glory
But it just takes so long


Chorus:
It's gonna take a long time
It's gonna take it but we'll make it one day

It's gonna take a long time
It's gonna take it but we'll make it one day


Oh, Barry had a record store
Started up a studio
Oh, West Grand Boulevard

Turned it into solid gold
Oh, people all around the world
Tunin' into radios

Welcome to the Motor Town
Buckle up 'cause here we go


Bridge:
Oh, Barry was the end of the story,
then everything went wrong

And we'll return it to its former glory
But it just takes so long


Chorus:
It's gonna take a long time
It's gonna take it but we'll make it one day

It's gonna take a long time
It's gonna take it but we'll make it one day


Wherever we're going
It's gonna take it but we'll make it one day
Whatever we're doing

It's gonna take it but we'll make it one day
However you want it
It's gonna take it but we'll make it one day
