The group was formed by three ex-members of Thee Shams, who broke up in 2006. While Thee Shams may have been classified as Garage Rock with a Southern Rock influence, Buffalo Killers place more emphasis on structured songwriting and lyrics that deviate from the typical Blues Rock topics. Buffalo Killers also sees different instrumentation than Thee Shams, with Zach Gabbard switching from guitar to bass, and Joe Seballi on drums instead of keyboards. The reduction in personnel may also earn Buffalo Killers the label "power trio", which accurately reflects the similarity of their music with such bands as Blue Cheer.

Get It
Buffalo Killers Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

If it s love, let s go after
Go out and get yourself a girl, bohoy
And if it s money you need
Ho out and get off you beast
Cause I don t wanna hear it anymore
You say you re tired to be pushed around
Everybody s in your way
Sometimes you gotta push your weight around

Your mother she can t fight it
The piece of mind that s on it s on
Since you re not the one

Get out and get it, get out and get it
Get out and get it, get it, get it, get it, get it
No reason why we re so unhappy
Cause we don t have anyone
I tell you I don t need it
I say it, don t need it, I don t need it
I don t need your picture, anymore

Get out and get it, get out and get it
Get out and get it, get it, get it, get it, get it X 2
