about
Friends, comrades, and industrial equipment enthusiasts, Kobi LaCroix is proud to bring you the gripping story of a man and his forklift.
lyrics
Henry drives a forklift across the USA
Folks all want to meet him, but he’s got to keep on schedule
He waves at little children with his prosthetic hand
He lost his real hand in a hydraulic press
Forklift Henry, a-chuggin’ down the road
A working class hero with questionable judgement
Henry drives a forklift at ninety miles an hour
When cattle run in front of him, he skewers ’em with his forklift
State trooper told him, “That thing’s not highway legal!”
So Henry ran him over, and that’s why he can’t stop
Forklift Henry, he may have killed a man
He didn’t mean to; at least that’s what he says
Henry ate some sushi from a truck stop near Dubuque
It was five months past the expiry date, and it made him violently ill
Forklift Henry, he can’t stop throwing up
Hmm hmm hmm hmm; he can’t stop throwing up
Forklift Henry, he pisses in his shoe
He missed the last rest stop, and he’s running out of shoes
Henry made a fortune on a Reno slot machine
That’s how he bought a forklift and fitted it with jet engines
Now he’s breaking land speed records on the Bonneville Salt Flats
He’s such a badass, he makes God look like a turd
Forklift Henry is American as fuck
He just hit an eagle; that’s probably a crime
Henry drove his forklift off the pier at Santa Cruz
He fell into the ocean and got picked up by a whale
He climbed up on that whale’s back and rode it to Japan
Now they do commercials on Japanese TV
