Well, 'round here we call this fella a Road Hog. This is a story about him and his eventual end: Well, me and my buddy went a riding last night Me and my buddy went a riding last night Popped a hill and we saw his lights Road Hog, beep, beep, do do do do do, Road Hog, do do do do. Now, when we saw him we almost died When we saw him we almost died He was comin' at us on our side Road Hog, beep, beep, do do do do do, Road Hog, do do do do. My buddy said, "That fella sure came mighty near. Probably some learner who don't know how to steer" And then I saw his lights comin' up in my mirror Road Hog, beep, beep, do do do do do, Road Hog, do do do do. He passed us a-going about a hundred, I guess He passed us a-going about a hundred, I guess And then he slowed down to twenty or less Road Hog, beep, beep, do do do do do, Road Hog, do do do do I tooted my horn and I started to pass I blinked my lights and I started to pass And then that road hog stepped on the gas Road Hog, beep, beep, do do do do do, Road Hog, do do do do He'd better get him up some money for bail He'd better get him up some money for bail 'Cause tomorrow morning he'll be in jail Road Hog, beep, beep, do do do do do, Road Hog, do do do do The boys will have him in the moring behind bars The boys will have him in the moring behind bars 'Cause I'm the County Sheriff in my unmarked car... he he he he Road Hog, beep, beep, do do do do do, Road Hog, do do do do Blow you horn, Has.
