Lyrics
Listen to that 12 -cylinder diesel rumble
She got a limp in her step
Let's see what's rattling
In the iron belly
Down in the concrete valley of a hospital cave
Where the mechanical monsters misbehave
Backup generated through a heavy vibration
If that diesel don't turn,
our luck is past I climbed on the back of a wrench in my
fist Uh -oh -oh, stethoscope in my ears through the oily mist
Uh -oh -oh, valve cylinder number four had dropped a valve rod
Shattering like a demon in the house of
God
Pop the rocker cover
Pull the broken steel
Gonna show this generator
How a biker can heal
Swing the hammer
Rumble in the bullet deck
Hear the engine chug
The Bowman Brotherhood Don't need no hood
Cowbell flanking Fuzz guitar rock
Keeping sixteen hundred horses on the floor
We ride with the iron
We wrestle with the lead
Keeping lightning pumping in the eye to your bed
Yeah, hear that diesel
Yeah,
Slapped in a replacement ride
For my chopper spare kit
Talked down the rocker arms
Till they perfectly fit
Hit the start up button
Flywheels bugged wide Sixty hundred horse power
Rolled on the ride
The vibration smoothed out
To a velvet purr
Cleanest damn frequency That ever did occur I leaned back on
the catwalk With the
Gracie Grimm That's how the sub -basement outlaws win
Rumble
12 cylinders firing true
She's ready to run all night
