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.
