Lyrics


1. LIVE WIRE

Well if you're lookin' for trouble
I'm the man to see
If you're lookin' for satisfaction
I'm satisfaction guaranteed
I'm as cool as a body on ice
Or hotter than a rollin' dice
Send you to heaven
Take you to hell
I ain't foolin'
Can't you tell

I'm a live wire, I'm a live wire, I'm a live wire
Gonna set this town on fire

Well if you need some lovin'
And if you need some man
You've got the phone and the number
And I got no future plans
Oh, come on honey, you got nothin' to lose
You got the thirst 'n I got the booze
Give you an inch
Take you a mile
I wanna make you smile

I'm a live wire, live wire
I'm a live wire, live wire
I'm a live wire, live wire
Holy smoke and sweet desire

Like a hot rod baby?
Oh, stick this in your fuse box

Cooler than a body on ice
Hotter than a rollin' dice
Wilder than a drunken fight
You're gonna burn tonight

I'm a live wire, live wire
I'm a live wire, live wire
I'm a live wire, live wire
And I'm gonna set this town on fire

Live wire, live wire
I'm a live wire, live wire
Well I'm a live wire, live wire
I'm a live wire, live wire
I'm gonna burn, found me guilty
Burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn


2. SHOT DOWN IN FLAMES

Wow, one, two

Out on the town, looking for a woman
Gonna give me good love
Anybody want to hang out with me
And maybe burn me up
She was standing alone, over by the jukebox
Like she's something to sell
I said, "Baby, what's the going price?"
She told me to go to hell

Shot down in flames
Shot down in flames
Ain't it a shame
To be shot down in flames

Singles bar, got my eye on a honey
Hanging out everywhere
She might be straight
She minds all her money
I really don't care, no
Said, "Baby, you're driving me crazy"
Layed it out on the line
When a guy with a chip on his shoulder, said
"Toss off buddy, she's mine"
Oh

Shot down in flames
Shot down in flames
Ain't it a shame
Yeah, to be shot down in flames

Hey you, Angus, shoot me, shoot

That's nice,
Woo
Uh
Oh
Oh
Wooooh

Shot down in flames
Shot down in flames
Ain't it a shame
To be shot down in flames

Oh
Shot

Shot down in flames
Shot down in flames
Ain't it a shame
To be shot down in flames

I don't want to be in pain
Don't want to be shot down in flames
Ohhh


3. HELL AIN'T A BAD PLACE TO BE

Hey you

Sometimes I think this woman is kinda hot
Sometimes I think this woman is sometimes not
Puts me down, fool me around
What's she doing to me?
Out for satisfaction, any piece of action
That ain't the way it should be

She needs love, smells out a man
She's gotta see
Pours my beer, licks my ear
Brings out the devil in me

Hell ain't a bad place to be

Spends my money, drinks my booze, stays out every night
And I got to thinking
"Hey, just a minute, something ain't right"
All these disillusions and confusion
Make me wanna cry
Oh, the shame, you played your games
Tellin' me your lies
Don't mind her playing a demon
As long as it's with me
If this is hell, then you could say
It's heavenly

Hell ain't a bad place to be

This is the night, turn down the lights
Closes up on me
Opens my heart, tears it apart
Brings out the devil in me

Hell ain't no bad place to be
I said, hell ain't no bad place to be
Hell ain't no bad place to be
Hell ain't no bad place to be


4. SIN CITY

Diamonds and dust
Poor man last
Rich man first
Lamborghini's, caviar
Dry martini's, shangrila
I got a burnin' feeling
Deep inside of me
It's a yearnin'
But i'm gonna set it free
In goin' in
To sin city
I'm gonna win
In sin city
Where the lights are bright
Do the town tonight
I'm goin' win
In sin city
Let me roll ya baby

Ladders and snakes
Ladders give
Snakes take
Rich man poor man
Beggar man thief
You ain't got a hope in hell
That's my belief
Fingers freddy, diamond jim
They're getting ready
Look out i'm coming in
So spin that wheel
Cut that pack
And roll them loaded dice
Bring on the dancin' girls and put the champagne on ice
In goin' in
To sin city
I'm gonna win
In sin city
Where the lights are bright
Do the town tonight
I'm goin' in
To sin city


5. PROBLEM CHILD

Fuck this

I am hot
And when I'm not
I'm cold as ice
Get outta my way
Just step aside
Or pay the price
What I want I take
What I don't I break
And I don't want you
With a flick of my knife
I can change your life
There's nothing you can do

I'm a problem child
I'm a problem child
Yes I am
I'm a problem child
And I'm wild

Make my stand
No man's land
On my own
Man in blue
It's up to you
The seed is sown
What I want I stash
What I don't I smash
And you're on my list
Dead or alive
Got a .45
And I never miss

Oh, I'm a problem child
Ay, I'm a problem child
I'm a problem child
Just runnin' wild

Just watch your step

Every night
Street light
I drink my booze
Some run
Some fight
But I win, they lose
What I need I like
What I don't I fight
And I don't like you
Say bye bye
While your still alive
Your time is through

Cause I'm a problem child
I'm a problem child
I'm a problem child
I'm a problem child
Problem child
I'm a problem child
And my mother hates me
I'm a problem child
I'm a problem child

(Problem child)...
I'm a problem child
I'm a problem child

(Problem child)...


6. BAD BOY BOOGIE

On the day I was born, the rain fell down
There was trouble brewing in my home town
It was the seventh day, I was the seventh son
And it scared the hell out of everyone

They said stop, I said go
They said fast, I said slow
They said yes, I said no
I do the bad boy boogie

Being a bad boy ain't that bad
I've had me more dirty women than most men ever had
All you women come along with me
And I'll show you how good a bad boy can be

I said right and they said left
I said east and they said west
I said up and they said down
I do the bad boy boogie all over town

I wanna tell you no story, tell you no lie
I was born to love till the day I die
I just line them up and I knock them down
And they all came running when the word got 'round
(Just keep a running)

I said up, they said down
They said straight, I said round
They said lost, I said found
I said free and they said bound
Bad boy boogie
Do the bad boy boogie
Bad boy boogie
Bad boy boogie


7. THE JACK

She gave me the queen
She gave me the king
She was wheelin' and dealin'
Just doin' her thing
She was holdin' a pair
But I had to try
Her deuce was wild
But my ace was high
But how was I to know
That she'd been dealt with before
Said she'd never had a full house
But I should have known
From the tattoo on her left leg
And the garter on her right
She'd have the card to bring me down
If she played it right

She's got the jack
She's got the jack
She's got the jack
She's got the jack
She's got the jack
She's got the jack
She's got the jack
She's got the jack
She's got the jack, jack,
jack, jack, jack, jack, jack
She's got the jack

Poker face was her name
Poker face was her nature
Poker straight was her game
If she knew she could get you
She play'd 'em fast
And she play'd 'em hard
She could close her eyes
And feel every card
But how was I to know
That she'd been shuffled before
Said she'd never had a royal flush
But I should have known
That all the cards were comin'
From the bottom of the pack
And if I'd known what she was dealin' out
I'd have dealt it back

She's got the jack
She's got the jack
She's got the jack, and who knows what else?
She's got the jack, yeah, yeah
She's got the jack
She's got the jack
She's got the jack
She's got the jack
She's got the jack, jack, jack, jack, jack, jack, jack
She's got the jack
She's got the jack
She's got the jack, ooh, was a bad deal, jack
She gave me the jack, hey
She's got the jack, she's got the jack, she's got the jack
Ooh, can't ya tell?
She's got the jack, jack, jack, jack, jack, jack, jack
She's got the jack, she's got the jack
She's got the jack, she's got the jack
You never know, she's got the jack
She's got the jack, she's got the jack
She's got the jack, and it hurts
She's got the jack
She's got the jack, jack, jack, jack, jack, jack, jack
She's got the jack
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
Oooooh

Thank you, thank you
Thank you people, thank you, thank you
I'm glad you like the show, yes, thank you very much, folks
Goodnight and God bless


8. HIGHWAY TO HELL

Living easy, living free
Season ticket on a one-way ride
Asking nothing, leave me be
Taking everything in my stride
Don't need reason, don't need rhyme
Ain't nothing that I'd rather do
Going down, party time
My friends are gonna be there too

I'm on the highway to hell...

No stop signs, speed limit
Nobody's gonna slow me down
Like a wheel, gonna spin it
Nobody's gonna mess me round
Hey Satan, payed my dues
Playing in a rocking band
Hey Momma, look at me
I'm on my way to the promised land

I'm on the highway to hell...
(Don't stop me)

And I'm going down, all the way down
I'm on the highway to hell...


9. HIGH VOLTAGE

Well, you ask me 'bout the clothes I wear
And you ask me why I grow my hair
And you ask me why I'm in a band
I dig doin' one night stands
And you wanna see me do my thing
All you gotta do is plug me into high

I said high
High voltage rock 'n' roll
High voltage rock 'n' roll
High voltage, high voltage
High voltage rock 'n' roll
Rock 'n' roll

You ask me why I like to dance
And you ask me why I like to sing
And you ask me why I like to play
I got to get my kicks some way
And you ask me what I'm all about
Come and let me hear you shout high

I said high
High voltage rock 'n' roll
High voltage rock 'n' roll
High voltage, high voltage
High voltage rock 'n' roll
Rock 'n' roll

I said high, I said high
Waaaah!
High voltage rock 'n' roll
High voltage rock 'n' roll
High voltage, high voltage
High voltage rock 'n' roll

Spotlight, put the lights out, happy hour
High voltage rock 'n' roll
High voltage rock 'n' roll
Wine, women and song
High voltage, high voltage
Wine women and song
High voltage rock 'n' roll


10. WHOLE LOTTA ROSIE

Wanna tell you a story
'Bout a woman I know
When it comes to lovin'
She steals the show
She ain't exactly pretty
Ain't exactly small
Forty-two, thirty-nine, fifty-six
You could say she's got it all

Never had a woman
Never had a woman like you
Doing all the things
Doing all the things you do
Ain't no fairy story
Ain't no skin and bone
But you give it all you got
Weighing in at nineteen stone

You're a whole lotta woman
A whole lotta woman
Whole lotta Rosie
Whole lotta Rosie
Whole lotta Rosie
And you're a whole lotta woman

Oh honey, you can do it
Do it to me all night long
Only one to turn
Only one to turn me on
All through the night time
And right around the clock
Whoo, to my surprise
Rosie never stops

She was a whole lotta woman
Whole lotta woman
Whole lotta Rosie
Whole lotta Rosie
Whole lotta Rosie
A whole lotta woman
Hey, ay, yeah

You're a whole lotta woman
A whole lotta woman
Whole lotta Rosie
Whole lotta Rosie
You're a whole lotta Rosie
Whole lotta wo..ma..ma..ma..ma..man, yeah, yeah, yeah
Whole lotta Rosie
Whole lotta woman

Whole lotta woman


11. ROCKER

I'm a rocker
I'm a roller
I'm a right out of controller
I'm a wheeler
I'm a dealer
I'm a wicked woman stealer
I'm a bruiser
I'm a cruiser
I'm a rockin' rollin' man

Got slicked back hair
Skin tight jeans
Cadillac car
And a teenage dream

I'm a rocker
I'm a roller
A rockin' rollin' man

Got lorex socks
Blue suede shoes
V8 car
And tattoos

I'm a rocker
I'm a roller
A rockin' rollin' man


12. IF YOU WANT BLOOD (YOU'VE GOT IT)

It's criminal
There ought to be a law
Criminal
There ought to be a whole lot more
You get nothing for nothing
Tell me who can you trust
We got what you want
And you got the lust

If you want blood, you got it
If you want blood, you got it
Blood on the streets
Blood on the rocks
Blood in the gutter
Every last drop
You want blood, you got it

Yes, you have

It's animal
Livin' in a human zoo
Animal
The shit that they toss to you
Feeling like a Christian
Locked in a cage
Thrown to the lions
On a second's rage

If you want blood, you got it
If you want blood, you got it
Blood on the streets
Blood on the rocks
Blood in the gutter
Every last drop
You want blood, you got it

Ow, oh
Play the tune
Yeaaah, yeah
Waaaaah

Blood on the rocks
Blood on the streets
Blood in the sky
Blood on the sheets
If you want blood, you got it

I want you to bleed for me

If you want blood, you got it...


13. LET THERE BE ROCK

In the beginning
Back in nineteen fifty-five
Man didn't know about a rock 'n' roll show
And all that jive
The white man had the smoltz
The black man had the blues
No one knew what they was gonna do
But Tchaikovsky had the news
He said

"Let there be sound", and there was sound
"Let there be light", and there was light
"Let there be drums", and there was drums
"Let there be guitar", and there was guitar
"Let there be rock"

And it came to pass
That rock 'n' roll was born
All across the land every rockin' band
Was blowing up a storm
The guitarman got famous
The businessman got rich
And in every bar there was a super star
With a seven year itch
There were fifteen million fingers
Learning how to play
And you could hear the fingers picking
And this is what they had to say

"Let there be light"
"Sound"
"Drums"
"Guitar"
"Let there be rock"

One night in a club called "The Shaking Hand"
There was a ninety-two decibel rocking band
And the music was good and the music was loud
And the singer turned and he said to the crowd

"Let there be rock"
