Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well it's 3 pm time to lug the gear
Got to get it on the stage
My muscle flex
My fuckin' sweat will save the day
[Verse 2]
When I check the mic, I fuckin' check the mic
I fuckin' check-a check-a, one, two, three
I plug it in
I make it sound as good as can be
[Verse 3]
'Cause the rock is rock
But the roll is roll
Gotta take the mic, he got take control
Gotta get that shit up on that fuckin' stage
[Verse 4]
Because the roadie knows
What the roadie knows
And the roadie knows that he wears black clothes
And he hides off in the shadows of the stage
[Verse 5]
Because the roadie
Looks a thousand miles with his eyes
And when the crowd roars
Brings a teardrop to the roadie's eyes, tears of pride
[Verse 6]
Because he brought you the show
But you will never know
He's changing the strings
While hangin' in the wings
No matter how hard
The show must go on
[Verse 7]
Then a beautiful girl come to me, she say
"Hey, can I suck-a your dick?"
I'll say, "Yes"
I am in love
[Verse 8]
Then she quickly say, "I sucked your dick
Now give me that backstage pass
I do not want you, roadie
I want KG's chode"
Oh
[Verse 9]
I'm standing at the threshold of your dreams
Without me, there'd be no sound from those amps
Without me, there'd be no lights on the stage
But you don't applaud for me, no
[Verse 10]
I am the roadie
Lonesome warrior searching for his soul, no
I am the roadie
I make the rock go
[Verse 11]
Roadie
Roadie
Roadie
