Lyrics:

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
What’s my number ?
I wonder how your engines feel

Ba ba ba ba
Scoot down the road
What’s my number?
I wonder how your engines feel
Shine the light

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
What’s my number ?
I wonder how your engines feel

Ba ba ba ba
Scoot down the road
What’s my number?
I wonder how your engines feel

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
What’s my number?
I wonder how your engines
Ba ba ba ba
Scoot down the road
What’s my number?
I wonder how your engines feel
