O.K., here's a real easy but fun T. Rex tune from the "Electric
Warrior" album. I believe the LP had the lyrics, but my copy was
lost ages ago and I've had to rely on my ear and the CD (minus
printed lyrics, of course) for the words. There are three spots
where I just plumb DON'T KNOW what he's saying, and I've indicated
these with question marks and nonsense words. If anyone has the
correct lyrics, please let me know.

Oh girl I'm just a jeepster for your love
Lyrics (as I hear them):
You're so sweet, You're so fine
I want you all and everything jit-jit (?) to be mine
Cause you're my babe, cause you're my love
Oh girl I'm just a jeepster for your love
You slide so good with bones (?) so fair
You've got the universe reclining in your hair
Cause you're my baby, yes you're my love
Oh girl I'm just a jeepster for your love
Just like a car you're pleasing to behold
I'll car you Jaguar if I may be so bold
Yes you're my baby, yes you're my love
Oh girl I'm just a jeepster for your love
Your wild wings glow upon your frozen cheeks
The way you flip your head (?) it always makes me weak
Cause you're my baby, yes you're my love
Oh girl I'm just a jeepster for your love
Your motivation is so sweet
Your vibrations are burning out my feet
Cause you're my baby, yes you're my love
Oh girl I'm just a jeepster for your love
I said girl i'm just a vampire for your love
And I'm gonna suck you
Notes: Marc Bolan occasionally plays A rather than A7 in the main
riff. He also sometimes uses Dsus4 in combination with the D in
the "I'm your babe..." part.
The version on "Electric Warrior" is in standard tuning. The version
in the "Born to Boogie" film is a half step higher.

O.K., here's a real easy but fun T. Rex tune from the "Electric
Warrior" album. Lyrics should be close to correct thanks to
help from R.J. Campbell. As with my tab of "Baby Strange,"
this one was assisted by Marc Bolan himself by way of the
movie "Born to Boogie."

Oh girl I'm just a jeepster for your love
Lyrics (not 100% guaranteed):
You're so sweet, You're so fine
I want you all and everything just-a to be mine
Cause you're my babe, cause you're my love
Oh girl I'm just a jeepster for your love
You slide so good with bones so fair
You've got the universe reclining in your hair
Cause you're my baby, yes you're my love
Oh girl I'm just a jeepster for your love
Just like a car you're pleasing to behold
I'll car you Jaguar if I may be so bold
Yes you're my baby, yes you're my love
Oh girl I'm just a jeepster for your love
Your wild wings glow upon your frozen cheeks
The way you flip your hip it always makes me weak
Cause you're my baby, yes you're my love
Oh girl I'm just a jeepster for your love
Your motivation is so sweet
Your vibrations are burning out my feet
Cause you're my baby, yes you're my love
Oh girl I'm just a jeepster for your love
I said girl i'm just a vampire for your love
And I'm gonna suck you
