Highwaymen Live By a Code

 Highwaymen Live By a Code

[Instrumental Intro]

[Spoken]
Highwaymen live by a code...
let me tell you a modern story of the desert roads!

[Verse]
Our big brother crowned himself a King,
donned a pimp outfit and brand new bling.
All hyped up for another scheme,
we staged an epic breakout scene.

[Instrumental Break]

We busted clean out of prison in a flash,
dodging guards in a desperate dash.
The King jacked our mom’s Cadillac,
and pulled up to the fence like a maniac!

[Spoken]
Hail to the King, baby!

[Chorus]
Highwaymen live by a code,
taking everything we know we’re owed.
Only suckers end up doing time,
we bust out and get down with crime.

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse]
Cook had a breakdown in the cage,
swore Jesus spoke right off the page.
He got himself ordained online,
and put his faith in holy wine.

[Instrumental Break]

The prison life could break anyone,
but Happy and Himbo are way too dumb.
They’d be better off running free,
having never known electricity!

[Spoken]
Just living life, naturally.

[Chorus]
Highwaymen live by a code,
we never carry emotional load.
All we need is a full tank of gas,
the open road and music on blast.

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse]
King Man-Bun had everything set,
a fresh ride, hot threads, and internet.
We fired up our newfangled tech,
but then mom gave us a reality check.

[Instrumental Break]

She got hammered and called us from the bar,
spitting fire about her “missing” car.
Carefree and chased by the highway patrol,
we cranked the volume for that fairy gold!

[Spoken]
That’s how we roll.

[Chorus]
Highwaymen live by a code,
we do what we want, not what we’re told.
Our mom can’t tell us what to do,
we’re a grown-up, badass outlaw crew.

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse]
Our plan was to hijack a Cybertruck,
take it to a chop shop and make a buck.
Powered by energy-drinks and snacks,
it was time to execute our attack!

[Instrumental Break]

We pinned our target and hacked the core,
a bigger score than we’ve had before.
But then Man-Bun lost his kingly mind,
stole our Cybertruck, and left us behind.

[Spoken]
Here we go again.

[Chorus]
Highwaymen live by a code,
whatever comes, we’ll never fold.
We settle things with a family brawl,
pop a beer and laugh about it all.

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse]
Mommy broke King Man-Bun’s brain,
and that’s all it took to end his reign.
He ditched the crown and left his throne,
all ‘cause mommy blew up his phone.

[Instrumental Break]

Father Cook got behind the wheel,
high on Jesus, with nerves of steel.
He told us we’d understand,
once we reached the promised land!

[Spoken]
Guided by a divine hand!

[Chorus]
Highwaymen live by a code,
an outlaw creed that hard men hold.
We run the highway like renegades,
all hooked up with divine upgrades.

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse]
The law found Man-Bun at mom’s address,
and zapped him twice for resisting arrest.
He paid the price for his recklessness,
and got himself booked as the state’s “guest.”

[Instrumental Break]

Happy and Himbo were all smiles,
countin’ clouds as we chewed up miles.
Father Cook kept quotin’ Bible lines,
firm in his faith that we’d be fine!

[Spoken]
Yeah, it’ll be fine.

[Outro]
Highwaymen live by a code,
we just make it up as we go.
Freedom first is how we roll,
heading straight for Mexico!

[Instrumental Finish]

[End]
