1. 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
There was sound
Let there be light
There was light
Let there be drums
There was drums
Let there be guitar
There was guitar
Oh,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
And 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.


2. PROBLEM CHILD

I'm hot
And when I'm not
I'm cold as ice
See me comin' get out of my way
Step aside 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.

Cause I'm a problem child.

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
N' you're on my list.

Dead or alive
Got a .45
N' I never miss.

Cause i'm a problem child.

Every night
Street light
I drink my booze
Some run
Some fight
I win they lose
What i need i like
What i don't i fight
N'i don't like you
So say bye bye
While your still alive
Cause your time is due.

Cause i'm a problem child.


3. HELL AIN'T A BAD PLACE TO BE

Hey you
Yeah you!
Ow!
Sometimes I think this woman is kinda hot
Sometimes I think this woman is sometimes not
Puts me down, fools 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, knows other men
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
Disillusions and confusion
Make me want to cry
All the same, you play 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

Late at night turns down the lights
Closes up on me
Opens my heart, tears it apart
Brings out the devil in me.

Hell ain't a bad place to be
I said Hell aint a bad place to be
Oh no, Hell aint a bad place to be
Singin Hell aint a bad place to be
Oh no!
Oh no!


4. WHOLE LOTTA ROSIE

Wanna tell you a story
'Bout a woman I know
When it comes to lovin'
Oh 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
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
To my surprise
Rosie never stops.

You're a whole lotta woman
A whole lotta woman
Whole lotta rosie
And you're a whole lotta woman.


5. HIGH VOLTAGE

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
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.

Well 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
You ask me what I'm all about
Come on 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
High voltage rock 'n' roll
High voltage rock 'n' roll
High voltage, high voltage
High voltage rock 'n' roll.


6. 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 played em fast, and she played 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 coming from the bottom of the pack
And if I'd known what she was dealing 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
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
It was a bad deal, she gave me the jack
She's got the jack, she's got the jack
She's got the jack, she's got the jack
Can't you tel she got the jack.

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


7. 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.


8. 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.


9. T.N.T

Oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi, oi

See me ride out of the sunset
On your colour TV screen
Out for all that I can get
If you know what I mean
Women to the left of me
And women to the right
Ain't got no gun
Ain't got no knife
Don't you start no fight.

'Cause I'm t.n.t, I'm dynamite
T.n.t. and I'll win the fight
T.n.t. I'm a power load
T.n.t. watch me explode.

I'm dirty, mean and mighty unclean
I'm a wanted man
Public enemy number one
Understand
So lock up your daughter
Lock up your wife
Lock up your back door
And run for your life
The man is back in town
So don't you mess me 'round

'Cause I'm t.n.t. I'm dynamite
T.n.t. and i'll win the fight
T.n.t. i'm a power load
T.n.t. watch me explode

T.n.t, oi, oi, oi
T.n.t, oi, oi, oi
T.n.t, oi, oi, oi
T.n.t, oi, oi, oi
T.n.t, oi, oi, oi ,i'm dynamite
T.n.t, oi, oi, oi, and i'll win the fight
T.n.t, oi, oi, o, i'm a power load
T.n.t, watch me explode!
