I've got the serum and I'm going to take it
A
all the way to Boston, oh I've got to get through
A
The going won't be easy, but I'm going to make it
A
It's the only thing that I'm cut out to do

Ride the post-atomic radioactive trash
      D
The sky's on fire from that nuclear flash
 A
Diving through the burning hoop of doom in an

eight wheeled anti-radiation tomb

Thank you Dr  Strangelove for

going do-lally and
 E
leaving me the heritage of Damnation Alley

No more Arizona, now Phoenix is fried up
A
Oklahoma City, what a pity it's gone
   A
Louisiana delta where the Mississip's dried up
 A
no more Chattanooga, Cherokee, Lexington
