Lyrics
THE LEGEND OF KATE BENDER
Don't stop at Benders. It's a dead end, my friend.
Just keep on ridin'. You must ride with the wind.
Don't stop at Benders. It's a cold night, my friend.
If you like livin', you will ride with the wind. With the wind.
Kate's got the evil eye. Kate wants to see you die.
Pa's got a hammer and they'll do you in.
Kate's got the evil eye.
Don't stop at Benders. Kate will love you my friend.
But she can't hurt you if you ride with the wind.
Don't stop at Benders. It's a dead end, my friend.
She'll never hurt you if you ride with the wind. With the wind.
Kate's got the evil eye. Kate wants to see you die.
Pa's got a hammer and they'll do you in.
Kate's got the evil eye.
Kate's gonna love you. Kate's gonna feed you.
Pa's got a hammer and he's gonna hit you good.
Kate's gonna need you. Kate's gonna have you.
Pa's got a hammer and you'll never feel the end.
Kate has the evil eye Kate want's to see you die.
They're gonna kill you, and never ever pay.
Kate's got the evil eye.
