David Yow by a mile. The Jesus Lizard blows a lot of shit to the ground.

Serious. The original lyric is, "She's a nigger on a one way ride." It was later changed because someone would rather not sing the n-word.

I'm pretty sure there's three Bon songs where he uses the n-word. I know 100% that the one-way-ride lyric is fact. The live "Nigger Town" lyric is here.

Bollocks. I think you're taking the piss on this one.

Can't vouch for the other instances, though.

Listen to the record. It's clear. Then do an internet search. :)

Sorry, but that's what he's singing.

I like Yow just fine, he's a nice guy, not a mouthbreather.

Bon Scott, however, sang "TNT", and I believe what he says in that song.

Sorry Dave, Bon Scott wins this one.
