I was robbed I was framed

What ever happens now ain't no fault of mine

I got born
I got blamed

Guess I should have read that detour sign

I took off I hid out

Jesus promised me he'd show me a sign

Take your little world and shove it up you're askin' me buddy I'm tellin' you friend

You ain't gonna pin that rap on me this time


'Cause I'm waitin' for some girl to pick me up on her way down

She'll know me in the suspect book in the show-up line in the lost and found

I got burned I got fried

There's someone out there waitin' just for me

Dirty blond dirty mind

We're goin' on a tri-state kill-spree

Pedal's down safety's off

Don't you try to take her love from me

I'm warnin' you back out buddy

You ain't gonna steal her love from me this time


'Cause I'm waitin' for some girl to pick me up on her way down

I'm gonna get my money back startin' with the drug-store quack

That jerked me out and hit my back and never shed a tear

That old man's gonna be surprised he'll be cryin' through both his eyes

When I walk up and say the jerk's right here

We're rollin' through your town tonight skid marks on your face all right

When she picks me up on her way down.
