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
