Book, Saddle and Go lyrics

[Verse 1]
I may not got a lot of money
But I got self-esteem
And in the golden age of travel
That's really all you need
I know I'm ugly, honey
But look where I'm coming from
I caught a pony downstate
And that pony born to run

[Chorus]
Book, saddle, and go
Hey! That's the name of the game
Book, saddle, and go
Canned heat! That's the name of the game

[Verse 2]
They call me the robber
Highwayman
Don't wanna hurt nobody
Just doing what I can
The galley after hours
Man, the captain just won't listen
"If you don't turn this boat around
I'm gonna kick the damn doors in!"
[Chorus]
Book, saddle, and go
Hey! That's the name of the game
Book, saddle, and go
Canned heat! That's the name of the game

[Bridge]
Pinkerton man, murdering bast*rd
I'm gonna get even, get even with you
Get even with you
Pinkerton man, murdering bast*rd
I'm gonna get even, get even with you
Get even with you

[Verse 3]
You can take down my old violin
And play it all you please
For at this time tomorrow
Well, it'll be of no use to me
I know they're gonna hang me
Tomorrow, I'll be dead
Though I never even harmed a hair
On anybody's head

[Chorus]
Book, saddle, and go
Hey! That's the name of the game
Book, saddle, and go
Canned heat! That's the name of the game
[Outro]
Pinkerton man, murdering bast*rd
I'm gonna get even, get even with you
Get even with you
Pinkerton man, you murdering bast*rd
I'm gonna get even, get even with you
Get even with you
Pinkerton man, murdering bast*rd
I'm gonna get even, get even with you
Get even with you
