[Am] You know spike, he's an old friend of Benmont Tents, Benmont Tents on the Oregon by the way
_ _ We _ [D] used to see him, we used to see [A] spike walking around down in Gainesville Florida

They had a leather on, _ dog collar
And he seen a little bar, you know, it looked good despite a couple of gas pumps and a pool table in there
So _ _ he walked on in, _ _ way in the back of the bar, _ way in the dark in the back of the bar _ _
Way over by, across from the jukebox, _ [Am] he heard a voice
[A] _ _ Said look we got another one, just like the other ones, another bad ass, another [G] troublemaker
I'm scared ain't you boys scared, [B] hey

[G] Think we ought to throw a spike, [Am] come [A] on _ _ _ Spike _ said

_ _ _ [D] _ _ Well here's another misfit, [A] another Jimmy Dean that [Em] has got a [Am] motorbike
What do y [G]'all think, that if we be good, we'll get a [Am] ride on it
[Em] If he ain't too mad about the [F] future
