Question Anyone hear this?

I was just flicking through my Bad Attitude tour programme and came across this song that I have never even heard of before, does anyone know of this?
It's called; Take A Number and the lyrics are as follows;

I'm just a packer at the butcher shop at 5th and Main
But somethin' about me drives the girls insane
Yeah the boss says I must be doin' somethin' right
Coz they been jammin' the parkin' lot night after night
Used to have a problem meetin' girls before
But since I got this leather jacket
They been beatin' down the door

Take a number
You gotta take a number please
If ya wanna feel your long hair
Flyin' in the summer breeze
Take a number
Yeah I'm the housewive's new delight
Every mother and daughter wants to
Jump on the back a' my bike

Is it the roar of the engin makes 'em twitch and moan
Or just the light of the moon bouncin' off the chrome
Don't need a lotta money or fancy car
Just a hot 750 with a sissy bar
Used to be nothin' but an average workin' Joe
But since I got my motorcycle
The girls won't let me go

(Chorus)

Heard a noise in the driveway late last night
Turned the floodlights on
Then I noticed the keys were missin' from the shelf
Then the gravel kicked the window
And the engine howled goodnight
There was the butcher's daughter peelin' out by herself...

(Chorus)

Don't matter wether you're a lawyer or a two-bit bum
When you're rippin' up the road you're always number one
Yeah the lady may be eighty or just sweet sixteen but
she loves to wrap her legs around the shiny machine
Don't matter if it's Texas or the coast a' Maine
The rush of the wind is exactly the same
Don't worry 'bout the future don't bother 'bout the past
Ain't no punch clock when you're goin' this fast

(Chorus)

I am almost certain this has never been released, but just a song souly for the Bad Attitude Live Shows but if it was released or if you have heard it can you tell me where I can find it as the lyrics look amazing, but to hear Meat sing them would be much better! Thanks in advance.
