[Intro]
Nice lick
I have a feeling this is gonna be a rhythm and blues song
Nice, real nice, tasty
Wait a minute
[Verse 1]
Well, if you want it, baby
Slide on up and take me home
And go ahead and drive me crazy
You can't leave well enough alone, ow
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm a piledriver
Piledrivin' man
I'm a piledriver
Piledrivin' man
[Verse 2]
So you say you love me
Well, shake me up and cut me loose
Then chase me down like you've got rabies
And slip your neck inside my noose
[Chorus]
I'm a piledriver
Piledrivin' man
I'm a piledriver
Piledrivin' man
[Post-Chorus]
Another nasty situation (Come on, baby)
I heard that story line before (Oh, hey)
We're gonna rock this fuckin' nation (Oh, ow, yeah)
[Verse 3]
There I was cruisin' backstage in Des Moines, Iowa
And a little girl comes up next to me and says
"Mr. Nugent, do you think my skirt is short enough?"
I said, "Baby, you want to be alive, you've got to piledrive"
[Bridge]
That was fun
That was good, what's next?
Did anybody get the license plate number on that truck?
Oh, Jesus Christ, here we go again
Fuck
[Chorus]
Piledriver
Piledrivin' man
I'm a piledriver
Piledrivin' man
Yes, I am
Piledriver
Piledrivin' man
Piledriver
Yes, I am a
Piledrivin' man
[Outro]
Whoa, nice
Nice lick
I have a feeling this is gonna be a rhythm and blues song
Nice, real nice, tasty
Wait a minute
[Verse 1]
Well, if you want it, baby
Slide on up and take me home
And go ahead and drive me crazy
You can't leave well enough alone, ow
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm a piledriver
Piledrivin' man
I'm a piledriver
Piledrivin' man
[Verse 2]
So you say you love me
Well, shake me up and cut me loose
Then chase me down like you've got rabies
And slip your neck inside my noose
[Chorus]
I'm a piledriver
Piledrivin' man
I'm a piledriver
Piledrivin' man
