[Verse]
A                        D        A
I bought a scooter and I rented a shack
                         E       A
Out in the sun, by the railroad track
A                        D        A
I got a job and I'm a-breakin' my back
                            E    A
Workin' and workin' for the big payback
 
A                        D        A
I keep a puttin' and a puttin' out
                           E    A
I keep a sweatin' like all get out
A                        D        A
I work so long that I'm a losin' track
                           E    A
Waitin', waitin' on the big payback
 
[Chorus]
D
Well, it's a wham, bam, thank you ma'am
God damn, look out Sam
A
I took on that train rumblin' down this track
They got your neck in the noose
You're draggin' long in back
                        E  A
Chasin' and chasin' the big payback
 
[Verse]
A                            D        A
Oh what my foreman does well I don't know
                                      E       A
He just throws me a shovel and yells go, Bobby, go
A                        D        A
Oh well a all day long He's just a diddy wack wack
                                   E    A
While I'm sweatin' and sweatin' The big payback
 
[Chorus]
             D
Well, it's a wham, bam, thank you ma'am
God damn, look out Sam
       A.                       E       A
It's a gone dead train rumblin' down this track
A
They got your neck in the noose
You're hands are tied up in back
                            E   A
Workin' and workin' for the big payback
 
[Verse]
A                        D        A
I quit that job, and Mister I ain't goin' back
                           E        A
Got me a knife and she's a long and black
A                        D        A
I'll tell you how I make my peace at night Mac
                         E   A
Down in the alley of the big payback
 
[Chorus]
        D
I go a wham, bam, thank you ma'am
God damn, c'mon man
A                                  E
You're a gone dead train rumblin' down this track
A
I got your neck in the noose
And I don't give a damn, Jack
                                      E   A
I'm on that long lost highway of the big payback
I'm on that long lost highway of the big payback
I'm on that long lost highway of the big payback
