I was born on a bad luck day
By the old railroad station
Mama and Daddy taught me to pray
But I never wanted salvation

Oh the Devil clapped me on the back

When I was nigh thirteen
Dyed my eyes from blue to black
And he made me hard and mean

Better get back on that train boys

If you know what’s good for thee
You’ll get much more than you bargained for
When you tangle with me
When you tangle with me

Mama cried when Daddy tried

To beat the Devil from my bones
They prayed for God to be my guide

But my heart had turned to stone

In the old train yard I took ‘em down

In ones and twos and threes
And every tough that came to town

Learned better than to mess with me

Better get back on that train boys

If you know what’s good for thee
You’ll get much more than you bargained for

When you tangle with me
When you tangle with me

When Uncle Sam said he wanted me

I took the first train down the track
And ended up in Normandy

With a rifle on my back

Left Jerry on that bloody shore
When the cap said give ‘em hell
Took down a score but I wanted more
Even when them Jerries fell

Better get back on that train boys

If you know what’s good for thee
You’ll get much more than you bargained for

When you tangle with me
When you tangle with me

Came home with a chest full of brass

And a slug stuck in my side
Holed up in the bottom of a glass
And a-spoiling for a fight

I’ll take you on ’til my last breath
With fist or bottle or blade
And when I shake the hand of Death
They’ll carve this on my grave

Better get back on that train boys

If you know what’s good for thee
You’ll get much more than you bargained for
When you tangle with me
When you tangle with me
