Gotta Get To Peekskill (feat. Violent Femmes)
Big boat, little boat, whistle and pound
Little wheel, big wheel, roll on the ground
I'll have to ride like the bald eagle flies
I gotta get to Peekskill, break a leg or die
Break a leg or die, boys
Break a leg or die
Take a sled and slide, gals
Take a wing and fly
Walk in that gate when the daylight breaks
I gotta get to Peekskill, break a leg or die
Eight days ago those Ku Kluxes come
Beatin' folks around and drink a sip of blood
When Paul sings tomorrow, those goon-thugs will try
I gotta get to Peekskill, break a leg or die
Break a leg or die, boys
Break a leg or die
Take a sled and slide, gals
Take a wing and fly
Walk in that gate when the daylight breaks
I gotta get to Peekskill, break a leg or die
I'll follow the new trail of blood on the ground
In through the gate and mill with the crowd
I just got a feelin' that blood's gonna fly
I gotta get to Peekskill, break a leg or die
Break a leg or die, boys
Break a leg or die
Take a sled and slide, gals
Take a wing and fly
Walk in that gate when the daylight breaks
I gotta get to Peekskill, break a leg or die
Break a leg or die, boys
Break a leg or die
Take a sled and slide, gals
Take a wing and fly
Walk in that gate when the daylight breaks
I gotta get to Peekskill, break a leg or die
Eight days ago those Ku Kluxes come
Beatin' folks around and drink a sip of blood
When Paul sings tomorrow, those goon-thugs will try
I gotta get to Peekskill, break a leg or die
Break a leg or die, boys
Break a leg or die
Take a sled and slide, gals
Take a wing and fly
Walk in that gate when the daylight breaks
I gotta get to Peekskill, break a leg or die
Little wheel, big wheel, roll on the ground
I'll have to ride like the bald eagle flies
I gotta get to Peekskill, break a leg or die
Break a leg or die, boys
Break a leg or die
Take a sled and slide, gals
Take a wing and fly
Walk in that gate when the daylight breaks
I gotta get to Peekskill, break a leg or die
Eight days ago those Ku Kluxes come
Beatin' folks around and drink a sip of blood
When Paul sings tomorrow, those goon-thugs will try
I gotta get to Peekskill, break a leg or die
Break a leg or die, boys
Break a leg or die
Take a sled and slide, gals
Take a wing and fly
Walk in that gate when the daylight breaks
I gotta get to Peekskill, break a leg or die
I'll follow the new trail of blood on the ground
In through the gate and mill with the crowd
I just got a feelin' that blood's gonna fly
I gotta get to Peekskill, break a leg or die
Break a leg or die, boys
Break a leg or die
Take a sled and slide, gals
Take a wing and fly
Walk in that gate when the daylight breaks
I gotta get to Peekskill, break a leg or die
Break a leg or die, boys
Break a leg or die
Take a sled and slide, gals
Take a wing and fly
Walk in that gate when the daylight breaks
I gotta get to Peekskill, break a leg or die
Eight days ago those Ku Kluxes come
Beatin' folks around and drink a sip of blood
When Paul sings tomorrow, those goon-thugs will try
I gotta get to Peekskill, break a leg or die
Break a leg or die, boys
Break a leg or die
Take a sled and slide, gals
Take a wing and fly
Walk in that gate when the daylight breaks
I gotta get to Peekskill, break a leg or die
