[Verse 1]
Ridin' on two wheels
Chains hooked on my heels
Sittin' in leather
Ridin' on a horse of steel

Put my shades on
Hair blows in the wind
I give some punk the finger
Now he won't look again
No, he won't

[Pre-Chorus]
Now you were sittin' home
And I got sent to Nam
I went to the big house
You just worked a job

[Chorus]
Hear me calling
Can't you hear my death tone?
Hear me calling
Can't you hear my death tone?
Hear me ride
On into the night
Pull alongside
If you're looking for a fight
Hey, hey, hey
[Verse 2]
My social worker
Got me on a chain
Keep me out of jail
So, the papers read his name
Uh-huh-huh

Unemployment checks
Run out next week
It won't be very long
Till I'm back on the streets again

[Pre-Chorus]
Now you were sittin' home
And I got sent to Nam
I went to the big house
You just worked a job

[Chorus]
Hear me calling
Can't you hear my death tone?
Hear me calling
Can't you hear my death tone?
Hear me ride
On into the night
Pull alongside
If you're looking for a fight
Hey, hey, hey
[Refrain]
Ah, ah, ah

[Guitar Solo]

[Refrain]
Death tone
Death tone

[Outro]
Gonna ride on my death tone
Ride on you tonight
