The Big Payback

I bought a scooter and i rented a shack

Out in the sun, by the railroad track

I got a job and i'm a-breakin' my back

Workin' and workin' for the big payback



I keep a puttin' and a puttin' out

I keep a sweatin' like a hog and all

I work so long that i'm a losin' track

I work so long that i'm a losin' track

Waitin', waitin' on the big payback



Well, it's a wham, bam, thank you ma'am, god damn, ring out sam

I took on that train rumblin' down this track

They got your neck in the noose, you're draggin' long in back

Chasin' and chasin' the big payback



Oh what my foreman does well i don't know

He just throws me a shovel and yells "go, bobby, go"

Oh well-a all day long he's just a busy wise crack

While i'm sweatin' and sweatin' the big payback



Well, it's a wham, bam, thank you ma'am, god damn, ring out sam

I took on that train rumblin' down the track

They got your neck in the noose, your hands are tied up in back

And you're a-workin' and workin' for the big payback



I quit that job, and mister i ain't goin' back

Got me a knife and she's a long and bad

I'll tell you how i make the peace with that man

Down in the alley of the big payback



I go a wham, bam, thank you ma'am, god damn, c'mon man

You're a goin' to that train rumblin' down this track

I got your neck in the noose and i don't give a damn, jack

I'm on that long lost highway of the big payback

I'm on that long lost highway of the big payback

I'm on that long lost highway of the big payback
