Lyrics

One, two One, two, three In the middle of the night In the middle of lonely night Stands alone in the pale moonlight Screams out in defiance He got no one to turn to You can talk 'til you turn blue He'd just turn his back on you Ain't no compromising 'Cause he's totally untamed No fear of the unnamed He'll take the blame Someone's gotta do it, someone's gotta He's out on the highway He's got the key and got the right of way His tank is full and his toll's paid Hellbound and determined He run a dangerous payload When he comes to the crossroads It's all timed to explode You do see the sky burnin' 'Cause he's totally untamed No fear of the unnamed He'll take the blame Someone's gotta do it, someone's gotta Now he's standin' at hell's door With a bad attitude and a .44 The Devil said, "What's you come here for?" Said, "Let's just get down to it" He said, "I always heard that you were the bad one A few places I ain't been, there's a few things I ain't done You got your pitchfork and I got my gun Someone gotta do it, hey" 'Cause he's totally untamed And no fear of the unnamed Stand up like a man, take the whole blame 'Cause someone gotta do it Someone gotta Someone gotta Now he's totally untamed Thank you
