Open Up and Say...Ahh!
Love On the Rocks
She goes down slow like a shot of gin
She's got an angel's face and a devil's grin
She kinda stared me down as I looked her up
She said "I'm your poison, now you drink a cup."
In the heat of the night is when she comes alive
She's gonna push you push you til she's satisfied
I watch the ice melt fast on her red hot lips
She whispers "If you wanna taste my love
why don't you swallow this."
Chorus:
Love on the rocks
Love on the rocks
She's my shot
Love on the rocks
Ooooh lick it up
She gets so close you can feel her breathe
Just the way she moves, so soft and slippery
She lives just around the corner, right down the street
All night we play the horizontal bop right between her sheets
Chorus out
Nothin' But a Good Time
Now Listen
Not a dime, I can't pay my rent
I can barely make it through the week
Saturday night I'd like to make my girl
But right now I can't make ends meet
I'm always workin' slavin' every day
Gotta get away from that same old same old
I need a chance just to get away
If you could hear me think this is what I'd say
Chorus:
Don't need nothin' but a good time
How can I resist
Ain't lookin' for nothin' but a good time
And it don't get better than this
They say I spend my money on women and wine
But I couldn't tell you where I spent last night
I'm really sorry about the shape I'm in
I just like my fun every now and then
I'm always workin' slavin' every day
Gotta get away from that same old same old
I need a chance just to get away
If you could hear me think this is what I'd say
Chorus
You see I raise a toast to all of us
Who are breakin' our backs every day
If wantin' the good life is such a crime
Lord, then put me away
Here's to ya
Solo
Chorus (3x's)
Back to the Rocking Horse
Like this
All the king's horses
And all the king's men
Ain't got a hope in hell
Of puttin' my pieces back together again
I've seen things in my life that should never be seen
I'm talkin' things that'd make your skin crawl
I wanna go back to a simpler time
Where nothin' really mattered at all
You see, I can't sleep all night long
Tossin' and a-turnin'
thoughts they keep a-churnin'
I can't sleep all night long
As a matter of fact
I just wanna get back
Chorus:
Back to the rockin' horse
Back to where it all began
Take me back-back to the rockin' horse
And start all over again
My parents think I'm crazy
And the doctor says I cracked
But they don't understand me
Cause I just wanna go back
You see I can't sleep all night long
Tossin' and a-turnin
Thoughts they keep a-churnin'
I can't sleep all night long
As a matter of fact
I just wanna get back
Chorus
Like this
Good Love
Well, I calls my baby on the telephone
She says hurry home Bret cause I'm all alone
Oh now giddyap, hurry, and don't be late
Cause a b-b-b-b-baby I just can't wait
She starts talkin' dirty right in my ear
Making herself so perfectly clear
She needs some good love
So I roll her over in the middle of the night
and I rock my baby 'til the morning light
Gettin' hot....Good love, yeah.
Well the good people say I'm a sinnin' man
But if they knew my baby they would understand
The neighbors keep yellin' bout all the noise
They say the things you're doin' ain't natural, boy
Well my baby she just loves to play
And I need my baby each and every day
Need some good love
We're hoppin' and a bobbin' in the old moonlight
Rockin' and a rollin' til the morning light
Gettin hot....good love
Bring it home
Solo
Well my baby she just loves to play
And I need my baby each and every day
Need some good love
Well my daddy thinks that I've gone crazy
And my poor boss swears I'm losin' my cool
But I just want to play with my baby
If you only knew what she could do
She starts talkin' dirty right in my ear
Makin' herself so perfectly clear
need some good love
Baby she just loves to play
and I need my baby each and every day
Start hoppin' bobbin' in the old moonlight
Rockin' and a rollin' til the morning light
Gettin' hot, hot, hot
good love
so damn hot
Tearin' Down the Walls
You're my fatal attraction
Oh, no, I can't stop
You're my midnight fantasy
You're my cream of the crop
I'm comin' home girl
I'm comin' home
You're my soaking wet ecstasy
Like sex on the beach
I wanna take you home now girl
Gonna practice what I preach, dig
I'm comin' home girl
I'm comin' home now
I can taste your sweet emotion
I can feel it runnin' hot
Our veins of passion pumping so strong
We're like gas and fire
got a burnin' desire
Them sparks are gonna fly and we'll be
Chorus:
Shakin' shakin'
Tearin' down the walls
Little by little, inch by inch
Tearin' down the walls
Screamin' scratchin'
Tearin' down the walls
Little by little, inch by inch
Tearin' down the walls
I just wanna eat you up
Like a lion in a cage
Just get a little bit closer girl
And that's all I'll need to say
I'm comin' home girl
I'm comin' home now
You're like a slave to the rhythm
I'm gonna put you to the test
You turn up the heat turn on the light
And I'll do the rest
I'm comin' home girl,
I'm comin home now
I can taste your sweet emotion
I can feel it runnin' hot
Our veins of passion pumping so strong
We're like gas and fire
got a burnin' desire
Them sparks are gonna fly and we'll be
Chorus, solo
Look But You Can't Touch
Good girls go to heaven
bad girls go to hell
The rest of them get rich
And do just what they feel
Well rich boys live in houses
And poor boys live in sin
The rest of them get married
And are never seen again
Well let me tell a story explain the shape I'm in
The girl I had last night had never tasted sin
So I took her to my hotel where I tried to get my way
She said "Wait a minute, Bret, there's something I must say..."
She said If you wanna talk that's fine with me
But if you want more you'd better let me be
Chorus:
Cause you can look but you can't touch
Cause the best things in life ain't cheap
You can look but you can't touch
Cause baby I ain't for keeps
Well maybe I'm a bad boy
OK, so I've been around the block
But I am good at one thing
And believe me it ain't talk
She says you must be kidding
I've heard this all before
Other girls might buy it
But I don't, that's for sure
Now wait a minute baby
I don't want you to go
She said "Don't get no closer
The answer still is no"
So I wined her, dined her, fancy talked
Acted cool and smooth
Got my hands around her shoulder
Two inches from the move
Well I guess I'm about as close as I could be
So I finally made my move, she just said to me
Chorus
Let me show you something
Mmm, let me set the pace
Slid my hand up her leg
As she slapped me across my face
Can't blame a man for tryin'
Wantin' action ain't a crime
I didn't plan on spending money
Just to get a piece of mind
Solo
Fallen Angel
She stepped off the bus out into the city streets
Just a small town girl with her whole life
Packed in a suitcase by her feet
But somehow the lights didn't
shine as bright as they did
On her mama's TV screen
And the work seemed harder
And the days seemed longer
Than she ever thought they'd be
But you know you got to stick to your guns
When it all comes down
Cause sometimes you can't choose
It's like heads they win
Tails you're gonna lose
Chorus:
Win big--Mama's fallen angel
Lose big--livin' out her lies
Wants it all--Mama's fallen angel
Lose it all, rollin' the dice of her life
Now she found herself in the fast lane livin' day to day
Turned her back on her best friends, yeah
And let her family slip away
Just like a lost soul
caught up in the Hollywood scene
All the parties and the limousines
Such a good actress hiding all her pain
Trading her memories for fortune and fame
Just a step away from the edge of a fall
Caught between heaven and hell
Where's the girl I knew a year ago
Chorus
Too much too soon
Or just a little too late
Cause when her ship came in
She wasn't there and it just wouldn't wait
Solo, chorus out
Every Rose Has Its Thorn
We both lie silently still
in the dead of the night
Although we both lie close together
We feel miles apart inside
Was it something I said or something I did
Did the words not come out right
Though I tried not to hurt you
Though I tried
But I guess that's why they say
Chorus:
Every rose has its thorn
Just like every night has its dawn
Just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song
Every rose has its thorn
Yeah it does
I listen to our favorite song
playing on the radio
Hear the DJ say loves a game of easy come and
easy go
But I wonder does he know
Has he ever felt like this
And I know that you'd be here somehow
If I could have let you know somehow
I guess
Chorus
Though it's been a while now
I can still feel so much pain
Like a knife that cuts you the wound heals
but the scar, that scar remains
Solo
I know I could have saved a love that night
If I'd known what to say
Instead of makin' love
We both made our separate ways
But now I hear you found somebody new
and that I never meant that much to you
To hear that tears me up inside
And to see you cuts me like a knife
I guess
Chorus
Your Mama Don't Dance
Loggins-Messina
Chorus:
Your Mama don't dance and your Daddy don't rock and roll
Your Mama don't dance and your Daddy don't rock and roll
But when evening comes around and it's time to hit the town
Where do you go--You gotta rock it
The old folks say that you gotta end your date by ten
But if you're out on a date don't you bring her home late cause it's a sin
You know there's no excuse, you know you're gonna lose, you never win
I'll say it again
And it's all because
Chorus
Solo
Everyone gather round let me tell you all about it
You see I pulled into a drive-in and I found a place to park
We hopped into the backseat where it's always nice and dark
We're just about to move thinkin' "Bret, this is a breeze"
There's a light in my eye and a guy says "Out of the car, long hair!"
Oowee--you're coming with me
Said the local police
Chorus
Play me a little C.C.
Solo
Your Mama don't dance, no
She just don't dance, no
Your Mama don't dance and your Daddy don't rock and roll
Ah, yeah
Bad To Be Good
There's an alley cat slowly walkin' down a dirty street
Watching a cop on the take marching to his city beat
You got five fingers Johnny stealing everything in sight
You gotta be bad to be good in the dead of the night
Wowowow, kick it
You're dancing in fire, baby
When you're takin' it to the streets
Yeah to the streets
Baby better be better watch your back
Fast on your feet
Cause they're wheelin' dealin'
Cheatin' stealin'
Child you're gonna learn
Chorus:
You gotta be bad to be good
If you know what I'm talkin' about
What's that
So I say it again
You gotta be bad to be good
In the dead of the night
When you got nothin' baby
You got nothin' to lose, nothin' to lose
It's an eye for an eye baby
And a tooth for a tooth, ain't it the truth
If you got nine lives you might survive
Cause nothing's free on the other side
Chorus
Wheelin' dealin' cheatin' stealin'
Just to stay alive
They got love for sale, yes for sale
On the New York subway line
Watch the working girls hanging out
Turning tricks underneath the lights,
Oh the lights
One step from hell
The poor men sell their soul
for a taste of wine
Chorus
When it's said and done
and you're on the run
And the only law comes under the gun
