Gear Jammer
by 
George Thorogood 
recording of 1985 
from 
Maverick (Rounder 3045) 
& 
Let's Work Together Live (EMI 31948 or EMI 3718) 
& 
The Baddest Of George Thorogood And The Destroyers (EMI E2-97718 or Capitol 97718) 
Running my rig around ninety-five, 
rockin' and rollin' in overdrive 
My heart's beating like a jackhammer, 
it's the midnight ride for the gear jammer 
Nine long days through twenty-three states, 
I gotta see my baby soon you know I just can't wait 
The police catch me I'll end up in the slammer, 
'cause the law don't want no gear jammer 
Running my rig in a mighty high gear, 
I don't care where I go just long as it ain't here 
Something gets in my way you know I'm gonna ram it, 
nobody fools around with this gear jammer 
Running my rig about ninety-five, 
I'm a-rockin' and a-rollin' in overdrive 
My heart's beating like a jackhammer, 
don't you get in the way of this gear jammer
