The Legend Of The Last Of The Outlaw Truckers Aka The Ballad Of Sheriff Sho

The Dandy Warhols


i was sick sick so sick time around 
i use to live down town down in trucker town 
i was the baddest, baddest, baddest around 
but there were fifteen years since i heard a sound 
i said look it, look it, come on down 
cuz when the boss start shaking, shaking 'em down 
they're called the last of the outlaw truckers around 

cuz i'm me, see 
jacked up on junk and nicotine 
whoa-oh please believe me 
i know what i mean 

by the time we got to texas he was lying 'em down 
with the bang boom bodies all gone to the ground 
i said now look it, look it, look what i found 

i'm on one more mission and that's you, and that's right 

cuz i'm me, see 
jacked up on meth and Dexedrine 
whoa-oh, please believe me 
i know what i mean 
and i'm clean 
oh, narcotics now 
if you've seen what i've seen 
then you know what i mean 

and i said look around, looking out and below 
you know its hard to take shorty up in new mexico 

and then i gotta get him down to new orleans 
i'll go to eight states, in eight states straight 
shorty you hesitate on a daily base 

we even got you started down in baton rouge 
well shorty's kind of trippin' from making him stand 
so stacks went off to get the gun from his hands 

pulled another pistol and shot him down 

that's about the time that sheriff shot shorty down 
cuz i'm mean, see 
jacked up on meth-amphetamines 
and oh-oh, please believe me 
i know what i mean 
and i'm clean 
get no buyers now 
if you've seen what i've seen 
oh you know what i mean
