Bear bait doing 80 with one headlight*
I stayed about 100 yards off his tail
The Hi Po racked em′ up and pulled me over
The bear bait made the border and I damn near went to jail
Bossier City just outside of Shreveport
A drunk man took a flying leap to the stage
The drummer wound up with a broken foot
And the roadie he got a raise
That gets under your skin
When you wanna tell people how to be
You don′t know where to begin
Thank God that′s something
Poor boy's doing rich men′s evil business
They don't realize they′re blowing up a hearse
Your holy war's to deep for me to fathom
Hoss you better hope I don′t get there first
That gets under your skin
When you wanna tell people how to be
You don't know where to begin
Thank God that's something
2 hours a day in front of a neon alter
In that time anyone could have wrote this song
Still have time to go out and help their brother
Talk about all the different ways this world keeps turning wrong
That gets under your skin
When you wanna tell people how to be
You don′t know where to begin
Thank God that's something
That gets under your skin
When you wanna tell people how to be
You don′t know where to begin
Thank God that's something
