I'm fighting for small businesses. I'm not fighting for big oil. Don't be confused. And there are thousands of businesses in this state that are at great risk. Meanwhile, the country keeps guzzling the oil, but we're out of work down here. We need to get back to work to build this region, and we intend to do so.

Im Bad, Im Nationwide
{an original catch phrase for the ages, its the lyrical and musical
Embodiment of the low rider ethos. though millions swore theyd heard
It before, the national anthem of the u.s. of zz first greeted dawns
Early light on 1979s deguello, their first for warner bros.}
Well I was rollin down the road in some cold blue steel,
I had a blues man in back, and a beautician at the wheel.
We going downtown in the middle of the night
We laughing and Im jokin and we feelin alright.
Oh Im bad, Im nationwide.
Yes Im bad, Im nationwide.
Easin down the highway in a new cadillac,
I had a fine fox in front, I had three more in the back.
They sportin short dresses, wearin spike-heel shoes,
They smokin lucky strikes, and wearing nylons too.
cause we bad, we nationwide.
Yeah we bad, we nationwide.
Well I was movin down the road in my v-8 ford,
I had a shine on my boots, I had my sideburns lowered.
With my new york brim and my gold tooth displayed,
Nobody give me trouble cause they know I got it made.
Im bad, Im nationwide.
Well Im bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, Im nationwide.
