On the dirty side of town

Have a couple kids and a little plot of land

Open themselves up a BBQ stand,
Buka diri berdiri BBQ,
Just like Engine Joe on the other side of town
Sama seperti Engine Joe di sisi lain kota
Funny little lady and the rodeo clown

Once upon a time there was a race car racer,
Dahulu kala ada pembalap mobil balap,
And he had himself a suped up AMC Pacer
Dan dia sendiri yang menggantikan AMC Pacer
It was shaped like a bubble, but it drove really fast

Racer couldn't drive so the Pacer it crashed
Pembalap tidak bisa menyetir sehingga Pacer itu jatuh
Got himself a guy with a truck that could tow her

Still he said he didn't think that guy could fix its motor

I guess that's how Engine Joe got his name

Now he wrangles beef in a BBQ stand

Ever since the day that he mangled his hand
Sejak hari ia meraba tangannya
He doesn't care
Dia tidak peduli
He just keeps on smokin'
Dia hanya terus merokok ‘
Cigarettes and brisket man
Rokok dan Sandung lamur
I ain't jokin'
Saya tidak jokin ‘
