Lyrics
the ballad of evel (Katz/Andrews)
reving up the wheels
certain death at hand
got the stare and feel
time when man's a man
you can eat my dust
cause I could jump the moon
got me buckled in
car shaped like a dart
hear the turbines spin
as I'm flying through the start
I've broken all my bones
and I don't give a shit
oh Evel, I know you'll get over
racing like the wind
speeds approaching sound
air is getting thin
and I can't see the ground
forget the next of kin
I'm running the demonds down
headed for the trees
too late to turn it back
that's alright with me
cause none else has got the sack
I'll just try again
when the bandages come off
oh Evel, I know you'll get over
Gun it alone and slipping down
since I been away
I've been down, but I'm not sleeping
since I've been away
oh Evel, I know you'll get over
this time
