Good playing.
Turn it up as loud as humanly possible,
And thank the Lord that you ain't at work.
R.I.P., E.V.H.

********************************* LYRICS ********************************
We was broke and hungry on a summer day;
They sent the sheriff down to try 'n drive us away.
We was sittin' ducks for the police man;
They found a dirty-faced kid in a garbage can . . .
Ooooh
And I'm alone--I'm on the highway--
Hoo Yah: DEAD OR ALIVE!
(Dead or alive.)
Broken down & dirty; dressed in rags . . .
Uh, from the day my momma told me, "Boy, You pack your bags."
[They] sent the mayor down in his pick-up truck;
The jury looked at me, say, "Out of luck."
And I'm alone--I'm on the highway--
Hoo Yah: DEAD OR ALIVE!
(Dead or alive.)
ALL RIGHT!
NOW, I WAS BROKEN, DOWN & DIRTY: DRESSED IN RAGS!!!
Uh, from the day my momma told me, "Boy, you pack your bags."
Ya, we was sittin' ducks for the police man;
They found a dirty-faced kid in a garbage can . . .
Baby, yah . . . yah . . .
Babe, I'm alone, yah . . . --I'm on the highway--
Hoo Yah: DEAD OR ALIVE!
(Dead or alive.)
WHOAH!
I'm gone!
Ooh, yah! . . . Whoah! . . .
ALL RIGHT!
Babe, I'm on the road! . . .
Yah . . . Yah . . .
I'm a spark on the horizon! . . .
OW!
AH, LUH LUH LUH LUH LUH LUH!!!
AH, LUH LUH LUH LUH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
