Route 666

Lyrics

[INTRO] Route 666 is a long begotten, cursed hidden red hot highway. The highway of the undead. Forever inhabited by the sinister souls of a chaingang murdered and buried there back in 1968. [VERSE 1] A violent chaingang of highway robbers were turned into a free labor road crew by the sadistic sheriff's warden. They tried to make an escape, but were held at gunpoint and forced to dig their own graves. They were then shot down buried and paved over with black top. Forever part of the road they built. [CHORUS] Shovels, pickaxes, the mighty sledge & the ol’ jack hammer. Once their work tools are now their ghastly murder weapons. If you hear their chains rattling in the dry desert air you’re already dead. The chaingang is going to feed you to their road. [VERSE 2] With no curves it’s just a straight shot to hell. The blood red sun never seems to go down on Route 666. This highway has a sun of its own, the devil’s sun. When ever a poor soul fucks up and somehow ends up on Route 666 they will be met by this undead chaingang. [CHORUS] Shovels, pickaxes, the mighty sledge & the ol’ jack hammer. Once their work tools are now their ghastly murder weapons. If you hear their chains rattling in the dry desert air you’re already dead. The chaingang is going to feed you to their road. [BRIDGE] No longer human, now evil asphalt apparitions. They are only their to kill, the road they forever wander drinks blood, highway 666 was damned from the start. They work the road, they provide the road with pounds of flesh. [VERSE 3] One will catch you up in the iron chains that once bound them. One will knock you silly with the mighty sledge. Two of them will cut you down with their shovel and pickaxe. The last will brings on to you the ol’ Jackhammer its loud pounding death call is the last thing you’ll ever hear. [CHORUS] Shovels, pickaxes, the mighty sledge & the ol’ jack hammer. Once their work tools are now their ghastly murder weapons. If you hear their chains rattling in the dry desert air you’re already dead. The chaingang is going to feed you to their road [OUTRO] So head this warning don’t take any short cuts when traveling Arizona or you might just end up road food. The chaingang waits there they will chew you up and lay you out for their blood thirst highway. Route 666 has it’s own sun, the devil’s sun it never goes down. One thing you can bet on is you’ll go down easy. They’ll make sure of it.
