SOME PEOPLE GET A CHEAP LAUGH BREAKING UP SPEED LIMIT
SCARING A PEDESTRIAN ON FOR A MINUTE
CROSSING UP PROGRESS, DRIVING ON THE GRASS
LEAVING JUST ENUFFA ROOM TO PASS
SOMEDAY DRIVER NEVER TOOK A TEST
OH YEAH! ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST
THEY SAY ITS NO USE SAYING THAT YOU DONT KNOW NOTHING
STILL GONNA GET YOU IF YOU DONT KNOW SOMETHING
SITTING ON A FENCE, THAT S A DANGEROUS CALL
YEAH YOU COULD EVEN CATCH A BULLET FROM THE PEACE KEEPING FORCE
EVEN A HERO GETS A BULLET IN THE CHEST
OH YEAH, ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST

OH YEAH, ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST
OH YEAH ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST
