How many nights must I wonder and how many nights must I wait how many nights full of thunder and tell me how many man must I hate Putting one foot after the other on a highway that never ends with a blues note comin' from my guitar I jump back in the saddle again I got my finger on the trigger I'll shoot the big one and blow you away I'll shoot the big one and blow you away I'll shoot the big one and blow you away Like a scene from an old western movie where they hang'em by ropes from a tree this system has always been groovy but not when it happens to me Throwing one punch after another in a prize fight that never ends with a blues note from Frigo's guitar l'm jumping back in the saddle again How many times does it feel like life's just one big pile of bullshit and everybody seems to be out for a little bit of everybody else's well here's a little bit of advice just get yourself a big old 45 and blow your troubles away
