Jr lived out in the woods all his natural born life
Ma & pa kept him working no time to take a wife
Kept him working - work it hard boy
He couldnt take it no more he said hey Im going away
I got a date with lady luck gonna see what she has to say
Chorus:
Down from the mountain wild in the streets
First trip to the big city it aint nothing but doggone pity
Looking for a little company
Cleaned his truck got it all gassed up
Till it would blind you from the shine
Scrubbed himself down put his sunday pants on
Hot damn he was ready to ride
Chorus:
Down from the mountain wild in the streets
Said hey baby whats your name said I want
To jump in your game
Looking for a little company
Chorus repeat
Well I saw the dragon lady she was walking up to me
Said good God almighty baby lord have mercy
What a sight she was to see
She gave me a wink of her eye said boy wont you come on in
She had a face that looked like an angel but her body was built for sin
Chorus repeat

Molly Hatchet è una band di southern rock americana formatasi a Jacksonville, Florida, nel 1975. Fondata da Dave Hlubek e Steve Holland, il nome della band deriva da una prostituta che, secondo la leggenda, mutilò e decapitava i suoi clienti. La loro musica è caratterizzata da riff di chitarra pesanti, melodie orecchiabili e testi spesso ispirati alla vita quotidiana del sud degli Stati Uniti. Il loro album di debutto omonimo (1976) ottenne un discreto successo, ma fu con il secondo album, *Flirtin' with Disaster* (1978), che la band raggiunse la fama internazionale grazie al singolo omonimo. Altri brani rappresentativi includono "Gator Country" e "Devil's Canyon". Molly Hatchet ha continuato a registrare musica fino ai giorni nostri, mantenendo una fedele base di fan in tutto il mondo.
