Come On!
So man you think
you wanna run whiskey
Well roll with me,
hoss you better listen good and clear
If you got a badge or
a big mouth brother you
ain't got no business here
Boy, this here is the moonshine still,
cant you smell that whiskey burn
This is how the big dogs run,
boy you're ridin shotgun
Buckle up and lets have some fun
Ridin 95 down the highway,
sideways, runnin from ol' John Law
I got the booze in the boot,
move it over Bo Duke
make room for a real outlaw
Duct tape on that license plate,
a 6 gun in the dash
Thunder in the hood,
heaven from a still, lightning in a jar
Brother I'm hell on wheels
Just nine more miles
until the state line, we're on time,
and we lost Barney's blues
So you can open your eyes,
You done fine in this
dangerous part of what we do
When we make that drop
we're gonna pop a top,
you got a lesson left to learn
It ain't wine, don't sip it,
make it bubble when you hit it…
let it burn baby burn
We'll be Ridin 95 down the highway,
sideways, runnin from ol' John Law
Got the Booze in the boot,
move it over Bo Duke make room for a real outlaw
Duct tape on that license plate,
a 6 gun in the dash
Thunder in the hood,
heaven from a still, lightning in a jar
Brother I'm hell on wheels.
I said I'm hell on wheels…
Ridin 95 down the highway,
sideways, runnin from ol' John Law
Got the Booze in the boot,
move it over Bo Duke make room for a real outlaw
Theres Duct tape on that license plate,
a 6 gun in the dash
Thunder in the hood,
heaven from a still, lightning in a jar
Ridin 95 down the highway,
sideways, runnin from ol' John Law
Got the Booze in the boot,
move it over Bo Duke make room for a real outlaw
Duct tape on that license plate,
a 6 gun in the dash
Thunder in the hood,
heaven from a still, lightning in a jar
Brother I'm hell on wheels
I think you're ready boy…
I said Im hell on wheels..
Brother Im hell on Wheels!
