The Gig From Hell


Well we rolled into town for a nine o'clock show 
And we had nothing but good times on our minds
Then we had a few technical difficulties
But by the end of the night we were sounding fine

We were feeling so good cause we won the crowd over
We had gained a new legion of fans
But we also learned a different kind of lesson
Cause we got screwed by the headlinging band

That's the last time we play on a promise
We'll get it in writing next time
Cause it's hard to make a living
When you only have a pocketful of dimes

So we packed our gear and we drove on home
Cause we couldn't afford a hotel
And to this day there's never been another
One as bad as the gig from Hell

That's the last time we play on a promise
We'll get it in writing next time
Cause it's hard to make a living
When you only have a pocketful of dimes

		-- solo --

That's the last time we play on a promise
We'll get it in writing next time
Cause it's hard to make a living
When you only have a pocketful of dimes
