Big Payback Lyrics

[Intro]
Hit it!

[Refrain]
Hit it! Ha!

[Verse 1]
I'm mad
Revenge
I'll cut your throat
I'll make amends

[Refrain]
Huh! Huh!

[Verse 2]
I'm mad
That's a fact
Get ready, dog
For the big payback!

[Verse 1]
I'm mad
Revenge
I'll cut your throat
I'll make amends

[Verse 3]
Take a walk
We'll have a talk

Of my 12-gauge friend

[Verse 2]
I'm mad
It's a fact
Get ready, dog
For the big payback!

[Refrain]
Hit it! Ha!

[Guitar Solo]

[Outro]
Hit it! Wha-oh!
