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
