2. Hennepin Crawler (3:59)
[Verse 1]
Well you can ride the Hennepin crawler for a dollar and pedal it around the world
You can ride the Hennepin crawler for a dollar, impress them steampunk girls
If you ride the Hennepin crawler for a dollar you'll feel that burn in your thigh
Cause when you ride the Hennepin crawler for a dollar you get to touch that pie in the sky
[Verse 2]
He'll show you his greasy old pickle for a nickel, must say I'd rather not
He tried to show a girl off of Florence street, he's damn lucky he didn't get caught
Fell asleep one night with a lit cigarette as he tried to drink away his pain
When a fireman doused his burnt-out shack, all they found was a greasy stain
(Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go)
[Verse 3]
Now you can ride the Hennepin crawler for a dollar and pedal your cares away
You can ride the Hennepin crawler for a dollar, but you best be prepared to pay
Cause when you ride the Hennepin crawler for a dollar, there's no friends or cuttin' deals
If you ride the Hennepin crawler for a dollar your sweat's gonna grease them wheels
(Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go)
[Verse 4]
He tried to buy a lotta ore for a quarter way back in the olden days
He sold his soul for a donut hole, he couldn't muster the nerve to ask for a raise
She sold seashells and other things down by the old seashore
When she sold her song to a beer commercial, she looked like a filmin' whore
[Verse 1]
Now you can ride the Hennepin crawler for a dollar and pedal it around the world
You can ride the Hennepin crawler for a dollar, impress them steampunk girls
If you ride the Hennepin crawler for a dollar you'll feel that burn in your thigh
Cause when you ride the Hennepin crawler for a dollar you get to bite that pie in the sky
You get to bite that pie in the sky, you get to bite that pie in the sky
You get to bite that pie in the sky, you get to bite that pie in the sky
(Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go)
[Outro]
Hennepin, Hennepin crawler
Hennepin, Hennepin crawler
Hennepin, Hennepin crawler
You can ride the Hennepin crawler for a dollar
Well you can ride the Hennepin crawler for a dollar and pedal it around the world
You can ride the Hennepin crawler for a dollar, impress them steampunk girls
If you ride the Hennepin crawler for a dollar you'll feel that burn in your thigh
Cause when you ride the Hennepin crawler for a dollar you get to touch that pie in the sky
[Verse 2]
He'll show you his greasy old pickle for a nickel, must say I'd rather not
He tried to show a girl off of Florence street, he's damn lucky he didn't get caught
Fell asleep one night with a lit cigarette as he tried to drink away his pain
When a fireman doused his burnt-out shack, all they found was a greasy stain
(Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go)
[Verse 3]
Now you can ride the Hennepin crawler for a dollar and pedal your cares away
You can ride the Hennepin crawler for a dollar, but you best be prepared to pay
Cause when you ride the Hennepin crawler for a dollar, there's no friends or cuttin' deals
If you ride the Hennepin crawler for a dollar your sweat's gonna grease them wheels
(Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go)

You get to bite that pie in the sky, you get to bite that pie in the sky
You get to bite that pie in the sky, you get to bite that pie in the sky
