========================================================
{Riff 1}
Well I was driving by myself through Tennessee
and I broke down on the side of the road, look at me
Well I {Riff 2}got a mohawk, it looks pretty sad
and I don't think that they'll think I'm a good man{Fill 1}
{Riff 1}
So I went to a bar, so I could use the phone
The guy just looked at me and said "Hell naw!"
Fuck you, motherfucker!
