Pretty Smart on My Part lyrics

I can see him coming
He's walking down the highway
With his big boots on
And his big thumb out

He wants to get me
He wants to hurt me
He wants bring me down

But sometime later
When I'm feel a little straighter
I will come across a stranger
Who'll remind me of the danger
And then I'll run him over

Pretty smart on my part
Find my way home in the dark

I can see her coming
Sure looks pretty
Her breasts are bold
And her mouth is large

She wants to get me
She wants to hurt me
She wants to bring me down

But sometime later
When I feel a little naked
I'll lead her to altar
Then I'll tie her all in leather
Then I'm gonna whip her

Pretty smart on my part
Find my way home in the dark

I can see him coming
He's walking through bedroom
With a switchblade knife
He's looking at my wife

He wants to get me
He wants to hurt me
He wants to bring me down

But sometime later
When I feel a little braver
I'll go hunting with my rifle
Where the wild geese are flying
Then I'm gonna bag one

Pretty smart on my part
Find my way home in the dark

I can see them coming
They're training in the mountains
And they talk Chinese
And they spread disease

They want to get me
They want to hurt me
They want bring me down

But sometime later
When I feel a little safer
We'll assassinate the president
And take over the government
And then we're going to fry them

Pretty smart on my part
Find my way home in the dark
