This song couldn't possibly kick any more ass.  I'm serious.

It could try, but I doubt it could.  There's simply no more

ass to kick.



It's a fairly slow tempo,changing a little bit during the

harmonica and guitar solos, but that doesn't detract from

the total ass-whoopin this song gives you.  I've given the

chord names just for the hell of it.



By the way, you have to search the CD to find the song.

It's not on the tape.  It's song #21 starting at precisely

-5:04 minutes.  I go to 20 and fast-forward 2:30.  It's well

worth it.  Enjoy.
