Lyrics:

We was broke and hungry on a summer day
They sent the sheriff down to try and drive us away
We was sittin' ducks for the policeman
They found a dirty-faced kid in a garbage can, ah-ha, oooh

And I'm alone
I'm on the highway
Wanted dead or alive
Dead or alive

Broken down and dirty, dressed in rags
From the day my mama told me, 'Boy, you pack your bags
I’ll send the mayor down in his pickup truck”
The jury look at me, say, 'Outta luck!'
Oooh, yeah

And I'm alone
I'm on the highway
Wanted dead or alive
Dead or alive, oww-ahh

Ow-ow! Ooh!

Now, I'm broken down and dirty, dressed in rags
From the day my mama told me, 'Boy, you pack your bags'
And we was sittin' ducks for the policeman
They found a dirty-faced kid in a garbage can, ayyy-yay-yeah

And I'm alone
I'm on the highway
Wanted dead or alive
Dead or alive, ow ow!

Ow! I’m gone!
Oooh, yeah
Hey!
Oww!
Dead we run
Yeah, dead or
I’m a spark on the horizon
Wow!
Wow-wow-wow-wow-wow
Wow-wow-wow-wow
