Well, the last thing I remember, Doc, I started to swerve  
And then I saw the Jag slide into the curve  
I know I’ll never forget that horrible sight  
I guess I found out for myself that everyone was right  
Won’t come back from Dead Man’s Curve

Dead Man’s Curve, it’s no place to play  
Dead Man’s Curve, you best keep away  
Dead Man’s Curve, I can hear 'em say  
Won’t come back from Dead Man’s Curve

I’m a-toolin’ down the road about a quarter ‘til nine  
Gotta keep a date with this chick of mine  
But it’s gettin’ kinda late and I cross the center line _Ka-smash_

Transfusion, transfusion  
I’m just one big ugly mass of contusions  
I’m never, never, never gonna speed again  
Pump another gallon in me, Alan  
Hey Daddy-O, make that Type O

I don’t want a pickle  
Just want to ride on my motorcycle  
And I don’t want a tickle  
'Cause I’d rather ride on my motorcycle  
And I don’t want to die  
Just want to ride on my motorcycle

I’ve got your picture, I’ve got your picture  
I’d like a million of you all round my cell  
I want a doctor to take your picture  
So I can look at you from inside as well  
You’ve got me turning up and turning down  
And turning in and turning 'round

I’m turning Japanese  
I think I’m turning Japanese  
I really think so

</div>

Well I’m here looking through an old picture frame  
Just waiting for the perfect view  
I hope something special will step in to my life  
Another fine edition of you  
A pin-up done in shades of blue  
Sometimes you find a yearning for the quiet life  
The country air and all its joys  
But badgers couldn’t compensate at twice the price

For just another night with the boys oh yeah  
And boys will be boys, will be boys  
They say love’s a gamble, hard to win, easy lose  
And while sun shines you’d better make hay  
So if life is your table and fate is the wheel  
Then let the chips fall where they may  
In modern times the modern way

And as I was drifting past the Lorelei  
I heard those slinky sirens wail, whooo  
So look out sailor when you hear them croon  
You’ll never been the same again oh no  
Their crazy music drives you insane, this way

Cum on feel the noize  
Girls rock your boys  
We’ll get wild, wild, wild  
Wild, wild, wild

So you think I got an evil mind  
I tell you honey

I don’t know why  
I don’t know why

So you think my singin’s out of time  
It makes me money

Wild thing, I think I love you.

Can’t stop yawning, clear blue morning  
In mourning no more  
Come and see the wild things  
Just beyond the door

But there’s an old man here who claims that he knew you  
In another life  
I’m not sure what he said  
And could it be that he still thinks you’re his wife

I’ve been waiting seems like eternity  
I’ve been waiting, waiting for you  
I’m still waiting, if you remember me  
I’ll be waiting, waiting for you

I woke up this morning, Lucille was not in sight.  
I asked my friends about her but all their lips were tight.  
Lucille, please, come back where you belong.  
I been good to you, baby, please, don’t leave me alone.

Lucille, baby, satisfy my heart.  
Lucille, baby, satisfy my heart.  
I played for it, baby, and gave you such a wonderful start.

As I was motivatin’ over the hill  
I saw Maybelline in a Coup de Ville  
A Cadillac arollin’ on the open road  
Nothin’ will outrun my V8 Ford  
The Cadillac doin’ about ninety five  
She’s bumper to bumper, rollin’ side to side

Maybelline, why can’t you be true  
Oh Maybelline , why can’t you be true  
You done started back doin’ the things you used to do

I’ll show him that a Cadillac is not a car to scorn.  
Beep, beep! Beep, beep! His horn went beep, beep, beep.

If you’re on the highway and Road Runner goes beep beep.  
Just step aside or might end up in a heap.  
Road Runner, Road Runner runs on the road all day.  
Even the coyote can’t make him change his ways.

Road Runner, the coyote’s after you.  
Road Runner, if he catches you you’re through.  
Road Runner, the coyote’s after you.  
Road Runner, if he catches you you’re through.

That coyote is really a crazy clown,  
When will he learn he can never mow him down?  
Poor little Road Runner never bothers anyone,  
Just runnin’ down the road’s his idea of having fun.

Well, I’m running down the road  
tryin’ to loosen my load  
I’ve got seven women on  
my mind,  
Four that wanna own me,  
Two that wanna stone me,  
One says she’s a friend of mine  
Take It easy, take it easy  
Don’t let the sound of your own wheels  
drive you crazy

Come on, climb into my golden cockpit  
Love you till you’re seeing stars and stripes  
Burning rubber on the Southern highway  
Gonna take you for a freedom ride  
Get inside!

Wham, bam, thank you man,  
Get inside my fucking gold Trans Am

Some folks are born to wave the flag,  
Ooh, they’re red, white and blue.  
And when the band plays “Hail to the chief”,  
Ooh, they point the cannon at you, Lord,

It ain’t me, it ain’t me, I ain’t no senator’s son, son.  
It ain’t me, it ain’t me; I ain’t no fortunate one, no,  
Yeah!

Your flag decal won’t get you  
Into Heaven any more.  
They’re already overcrowded

No matter what the reason’s for,  
And your flag decal won’t get you  
Into Heaven any more.

Come you masters of war  
You that build all the guns  
You that build the death planes  
You that build all the bombs  
You that hide behind walls  
You that hide behind desks  
I just want you to know  
I can see through your masks.

You that never done nothin’  
But build to destroy  
You play with my world  
Like it’s your little toy  
You put a gun in my hand  
And you hide from my eyes  
And you turn and run farther  
When the fast bullets fly.
