"Hang On St. Christopher" lyrics

"Hang On St. Christopher"

Hang on St. Christopher through the smoke and the oil
Pumpin' iron around the scene, let the radiator boil
Got no backdown shift and a two-dollar grill
Got an '85 cab on an '85 hill

Hang on St. Christopher on the passenger side
Open it up tonight so the devil can ride

Hang on St. Christopher with a ballast door
Kick me out my body and throw me out in the fog
Do a hundred on the grapevine, do a jump on the start

Hang on St. Christopher, now don't let me go
Get me to Reno and bring it in low, low
Oh

Hang On St. Christopher with the hammer to the floor
Put a highball in the crankcase, nail a crow to the door
Give me a bottle for the jockey, give me a 294
There's a 750 album bustin' down Johnny's door

Hang on St. Christopher on the passenger side
Open it up tonight so the devil can ride
Let the devil ride
Let the devil ride
Let the devil ride

Hang On St. Christopher, now don't let me go
Get me to Reno, got to bring it in low
Put my baby on a flatcar
Tell 'em to burn down the caboose
Get 'em all jacked up with whiskey
And we'll turn the mad dog loose

Hang on St. Christopher on the passenger side
Open it up tonight so the devil can ride
Let it ride, let it ride
Let it ride, let it ride
Let it ride
Let it ride

Hang on St. Christopher, through the smoke and the oil
Get me to Reno and bring it in low, low
