lyrics

Said you need it more I don’t need it less Why don’t you give me the gun? Said you’re begging please Why don’t you give me the keys Why don’t you ever have fun? Say you didn’t do what I thought you did Just confess Cops are swarming ‘round choppers overhead More or less I’ve been screwed by the law Never get my fill Why don’t you give me some more? I’ve been ruined by the law Never made the kill Why don’t you give me some more? Said you’re running around All over fuckin’ town When will you ever be done? On these spendin’ sprees I’m sure you’ll never disagree It’s just like hiding from the sun Say you didn’t do what I thought you did Just confess Cops are swarming ‘round choppers overhead More or less I’ve been screwed by the law Never get my fill Why don’t you give me some more? I’ve been ruined by the law Never made the kill Why don’t you give me some more?

Don't fight the street lights The hour's growing near Silhouettes and ghosts revealing There aint nowhere but here Each day you're bleeding The future's still unclear The young, the brave, the suicidal Screaming to the air I don't feel in love You got these killer streets And this city sleaze I don't feel in love You got this ghetto grey You'll never take hope away Forgotten words and the destination It remains unknown Ain’t no hurry to beat the rain ‘cause Got no place to go We will not listen to the cynics We do not dare Got an arsenal but no redemption Screaming to the air I don't feel in love You got these killer streets And this city sleaze I don't feel in love You got this ghetto grey You'll never take hope away

I was just a young boy Knew what to do Come on baby and you gotta groove ‘Cause I’m rolling like the thunder Bombing at a hundred I’m driving over to you I’ve traveled around From sea to sea Ain’t seen nothing but you gotta be ‘Cause I’ve always had to wonder Who I’d have to conquer To lay down next to you Park my car baby I don’t need it When you send me reeling On the other side of (town) I don’t care if they say they love you They’re going nowhere fast I said it before And I’ll say it again My god baby ain’t you got that thing ‘Cause I would never settle Pedal to the metal I’m travellin’ miles for you I’m a jealous man What can I say Come on baby don’t you ever stray The road has seen my fortune Never doubt the notion I’m chasin’ after you Yeah you Park my car baby I don’t need it When you send me reeling On the other side of (town) I don’t care if they say they love you They’re going nowhere fast

I got a pretty little girl and we’re sittin’ on top of the world I said “I never want to leave, I’ll never be with any other girl, no” But prohibition ain’t no thing and I’m thirsty as a day in hell I gotta be there throwin’ down I hope you take that well ‘Cause rock ‘n roll made me do it I never wanna do it again Rock ‘n roll made me do it I swear it was the devil’s plan Rock ‘n roll made me do it I never wanna do it again Rock ‘n roll made me do it I swear it was the devil’s plan When I’m up out on the street and you think that I have had my fill Baby I’m just gettin’ started on to whiskey or and the holy grail Please don’t take it to your heart ‘cause baby you’re all that I need to know I gotta let loose, get drunk, fall down, lose control ‘Cause rock ‘n roll made me do it I never wanna do it again Rock ‘n roll made me do it I swear it was the devil’s plan Rock ‘n roll made me do it I never wanna do it again Rock ‘n roll made me do it I swear it was the devil’s plan

The street lights do whisper As I say good night I'm empty like shadows Can't get nothin' right Debts, doubts, knocked out I saw your eyes As they shine on me Candle lit diners Who just don’t know why There's echoes in the streets tonight Asking, "where you s'posed to be?" These trees look like prison cells For us beggars and sinners it Seems to late to be Waiting Waiting just to be here alone I'm waiting Waiting just to be here alone I soaked up the moment A moment in time Billboards and skin flicks Pissed up and tired Street fights and late nights I saw your eyes As they shine on me I know that it happens I just don't know why There's echoes in the streets tonight Asking, "where you s'posed to be?" These trees look like prison cells For us beggars and sinners it Seems to late to be Waiting Waiting just to be here alone I'm waiting Waiting just to be here alone I'm waiting Waiting just to be here alone

Trigger finger's startin' to itch I'm a gun-slingin' son of a bitch But everybody's goin' crazy My love is like a loaded gun You know I'm screamin' "ready, aim and fire" I ain't ever felt so high I ain't ever felt so high I got a pistol in my heart I got a pistol in my soul I got a pistol and a target And I'm locked, stocked and ready to roll I got a pistol in my heart I got a pistol in my soul I got a pistol and a target And I'm locked, stocked and ready to roll Shootin' like Billy the Kid I hide behind a cigarette But that burnin' love is so explosive Ravin' like a lunatic You know I'm screamin' "ready, aim and fire" I ain't ever felt so high I never felt so alive I got a pistol in my heart I got a pistol in my soul I got a pistol and a target And I'm locked, stocked and ready to roll I got a pistol in my heart I got a pistol in my soul I got a pistol and a target And I'm locked, stocked and ready to roll

Well I don’t need this baby So what we gonna do? Tell me that you hate the suburbs Yes I do, Yes I do But did you know? The city’s got a lot more You can still turn and go Still the same Never change Write me a letter Show me it’s better I’m so torn but baby I still care Say that you need me You know it ain’t easy To be living with ‘em Way out there Well I don’t need this woman That bridge still tears me apart Show me that your love is stronger Just can’t hide What’s inside But did you know? Heading east and I’m low But I still want some more Yes I swear, Yes I care Don’t you ever know What you’re doin’ alone What you’re doin’ alone Baby Write me a letter Show me it’s better I’m so torn but baby I still care Say that you need me You know it ain’t easy To be living with ‘em Way out there

Don’t you feel about the way you should? I been preachin’ this gospel so long – you ain’t no good Rock ‘n roll’s a privilege not a right And I won’t stand here for no more slander without a fight Smoke screen swindlers where you hidin’? Don’t wanna hear you triple rectify Effects boards and bull shit’s never justified Come along Don’t you wanna feel it? Drum kit excuse me it’s a space ship Back tracks and tuning - you can’t sing shit Rock ‘n roll Don’t you wanna feel it? Who you been listening to all this time? I can tell it ain’t Stones or JJ or MC5 I’m going to put you out your misery I’ve gotta tell ‘em that you’re lyin’ to set you free Smoke screen swindlers where you hidin’? Snake Oil scammer like I knew you were Don’t wanna hear you triple rectify Effects boards and bull shit’s never justified Come along Don’t you wanna feel it? Drum kit excuse me it’s a space ship Back tracks and tuning - you can’t sing shit Rock ‘n roll Don’t you wanna feel it?

They gotta give me some more You know I’m fallin’ apart I should’ve known from the start No control I’m worker six eighty-four I laid my blood on the floor And now they’re guarding the doors No control We’re gonna Light ‘em up Swing back, it’s a fist fight What we gonna do about it? Burn it down Lives up in smoke You should’ve seen it before I gave ‘em all of my life Now I’m out in the cold No control Blood’s beginning to boil For 30 years I been loyal They’re gonna pay with their souls No remorse We’re gonna Light ‘em up Swing back, it’s a fist fight What we gonna do about it? Burn it down Lives up in smoke They say “Every man’s life has got a value” Bought, sold, reduced to wreckage Lost in lies Not a word of truth

I didn’t need you ‘Cause I was the best Better than the rest Rollin’ ‘round like I own that joint Can’t you see my point? Living large and we did things right No reason to fight Drinking most days just to kill that time No reason or rhyme And I just want you to know Those things I said baby I don’t mean ‘em no more Something happened when you didn’t catch that train Lot of things inside of me I can’t explain I ain’t got nothing I ain’t got no clue I ain’t got nothing baby ‘Cause I don’t have you Season’s change I can no longer run From what I have become Traffic’s spinnin’ ‘cause I’m lost and blue ‘Cause I’m without you (Lost that love) Shine the light ‘cause it’s harder to see Even harder to breathe Forgettin’ everything I don’t know how Just look at me now And I just want you to know Those things I said baby I don’t mean ‘em no more Something happened when you didn’t catch that train Lot of things inside of me I can’t explain I ain’t got nothing I ain’t got no clue I ain’t got nothing baby ‘Cause I don’t have you Don’t let ‘em pass you by I’m haunted by guilt And these days seem longer than shadows on the hill But will you remember my words? I ain’t sure I keep thinking about that moment in time When the train left with that desperate crime Do you take ownership for what you do? Yes or no?
