His panhead is dusty, but he rides it with pride
Got no comrades in whom to confide
And the empty eyed skulls that stare at the sky
Know to keep it low, when the Trooper rides by
In the zone... Zone Trooper
In the zone between zones and the time between times
Feel the nuclear landscape shift in his mind
Sometimes the demons won't leave him alone
Until he's locked & loaded - ridin' shotgun in the zone
Zone Trooper... Zone Trooper
The Kevlar is hot, but he takes it in stride
Out in the radiation there ain't no place to hide
Coyote smiles as he rides by
He's waitin' for him on the other side
Zone Trooper... Zone Trooper
In the quiet cold dawn: a secret rendezvous
'Tween the ships of the Greys and the tribes of the Blues
Searchin' for relics, he don't pay them no mind
He slides on by through the other side
Zone Trooper... Zone Trooper
