We work this band 'cause they make it rock,

But we're the guys that make it roll.

We move the drums and amps and junk.

Road rats: we're a pack,

And the road's our home.



On the road half my young man's life.

I spend a lot of time;

Ain't got no bread to show for it.



Road rats:

All the cash spent on whites and wine.



We're the men behind the man.

We're the backbone muscle clan.

We do a thousand one night stands.

If the stars can make it,

If the band can shake it,

Well, if those guys can take it,

We can,

Yeah.
