01. Only You Can Rock Me

Lyrics by Pete Way, Michael Schenker, Phil Mogg
Who's taking time out, we'll take a shine out
We're the boys we got nothing to lose
I've had enough now of school and stuff now
If you ain't with us then it's just bad news

Only you can rock me rock me
Come on back now d o it again
Only you can rock me, rock me
Kicking out just like a hurrican3

We can't wait from day to day
Cuz we've got something to say
we can't wait from day to day
Cuz we've got something to say

Come on the street now on every corner
breaking out and we're doing what we want to
Just like a jewel shines in the night
she burns so hot out under the street light

chorus

We are here and there's no end
we keep on coming again
we are here and there's no end
we just keep coming again

instrumental

Who's taking time out, we take a shine out
We're the boys we got nothing to lose
I've had enough now of school

and stuff now
If you aint with us then it's just bad news

Only you can rock me, rock me
Come on back now, do it again
Only you can rock me, rock me
Kickin' out just like a hurricane

We can't wait from day to day
Cuz we've got something to say
We are here and there's no end
We'll keep on coming again

We can't wait from day to day
Cuz we've got something to say
We are here and there's no end
We'll keep on coming again

02. Pack It Up (And Go)

Lyrics by Way, Schenker, Mogg
I've got to sympathize
You run with all the rest
You've kept on moving but never got the best
And all our yesterdays go sailing out of view
I know there's something left hope you can make it through
Pack It up and go, pack it up and go,
Leftover from the show, just pack it up and go
You made the impact back in 1969
But now move over friend I think you've had your time
And all our yesterdays go sailing out of view
I know there' something left, hope you can make it through
Pack it up and go, pack it up and go, left over from the show just pack it up and go

--instrumental ---
And all our yesterdays go sailing know there's something left
Hope you can make it through

04. Ain't No Baby

Lyrics by Way, Mogg
Hey there now big shot well just listen to me
I know the score and it's no great mystery
I hear you talking and it's all been said
But what I'm thinking I keep inside my head

(1) I ain't no baby, so get out of my way
Keep in with your own kind
Ain't none of your business, you got nothing to say
Stay away, forever

You play the cool star it's a dangerous game
Don't forget the street and who gave you your name
Romancin' with the company as they pour in the Pounds
If the Next thing is you and then who are the clowns?

(1) chorus

--instrumental--

(1) chorus
Stay away, forever

05. Lookin' Out For No. 1

Lyrics by Way, Mogg
Just a kid with a crazy dream wants it all before he's seventeen
Don't know where to begin
With a wild thought he knows the fact, no no there's no looking back
Just gotta stand up and make it real

How does it feel to be right out on your own
Just gotta keep looking out for #1

Some people make it and others don't try, they seem happy to live out a lie
I'm right here on my own
Me I'm a gambler and I pay for my sins, I've been right there and I'm back again
Just gotta stand up and make it real

How does it feel to be right out on your own
Just gotta keep looking out for #1

Let's get away right out of here, it's not soon enough for me
Breaks of a lifetime it's there like a lifeline, reach out and grab it it's free

-- (short instrumental)--

How does it feel right out on your own
Just gotta keep looking out for #1

-- (another short instrumental) --

How does it feel right out on your own
Just gotta keep looking out for #1

How does it feel...to be out on your own... just gotta
how does it feel to be out on your own, just gotta keep lookin' out for #1
How does it feel to be out etc.
How does it feel

06. Hot 'N' Ready

Lyrics by Schenker, Mogg
You knock me out you're like a well oiled Smith & Wesson
Hot & Ready, ready to use
Dressed to the nines, you know you don't look 15, there's no question
Hot & Ready, ready to use
I'm coming through I've gotta get to you babe
I'm coming through I've gotta get to you babe

Don't need I.D. and there's no house detective to crowd you...
Hot & Ready, ready to use
Slip in the back door and slip out of what ever your into
Hot & Ready, ready to use
I'm coming through I've gotta get to you babe (2x)

---(instrumental)---

I'm coming through, I've gotta get to you babe (2x)
--(instrumental to fade out)---

07. Cherry

Lyrics by Way, Mogg
Gotta give you love oh cherry
dance for me there's only you
play the barrooms just for pennies
Wish I wasn't just passing through

Tell me your secrets, tell me no one way lyin' now
We are golden , We are golden
And I'm out here on the road, I feel just like a rolling stone
Into the highways of thei night I roll alone

On the tabletops she's dancing, sit and smile into your beer
Turn around no cherry for me, let me know you know I'm here
We are golden, We are golden
And I'm out here on the road, I feel just like a rolling stone
Into the highways of the night, making it feel all right
Come on cherry let's make it together
Out of the neon and into my life
We can't play this game forever, now.....
(1) (instrmental)

Gotta give my love oh Cherry, dance for me there' s only you
play the barrooms just for pennies, wish I wasn't just passing through
Tell me your secrets, tell me no one way lyin' now
We are golden, we are golden
And I'm out here on the road, I feel just like a rolling stone
into the highways of the night I roll alone

08. You Don't Fool Me

Lyrics by Way, Parker, Mogg
If I could see you would you still give me
Just hold me tighter and love me maybe
You'll be my thunder, I don't want saving
You don't fool me, oh no you don't fool me
One look at you it's easy to see
oh no you don't fool me, oh babe you don't fool me
I'll play along, just give it to me

You build me up now, you pull me down
You make me come on yeah, keep me around
I'll want to move you, I surely could
You don't fool me, oh no you don't fool me,
one look at you, it's easy to see oh no
you don't fool me, oh babe you don't fool me,
I'll play along, just give it to me

---instrumental---

Just gotta have you, you drive me crazy, tell me you feel it, your honey give me ...
Here burns the fire, I feel your heat
You don't fool me, oh babe you don't fool me
One look at you, it's easy to see
Oh no you don't fool me, oh babe you don't fool me
I'll play along, just give it to me
Oh no you don't fool me, oh babe you don't fool me
One look at you girl, it's easy to see
Oh no you don't fool me, oh babe you don't fool me
I'll play along, just give it to me

Music by Schenker, Raymond

10. One More For The Rodeo

Lyrics by Way, Mogg
One more for the rodeo, an old-school '60s team
A great new wide awakening spews out at the seams
Laid out cold on the table, a sheet pulled over his head
I turned around to the janitor, asked him just how long you'd been dead

And it's one more for the rodeo, one more for the show
One more pretender who just had to go

All the gods and gurus blowing from the east
So caught up in your principles it eats your mind like a disease
I wish I was invisible, hidden from the crowd
And this cold wind blows down the sidewalk and leaves me wondering how

And it's one more for the rodeo, one more for the show
One more pretender who just had to go

---instrumental---

One more for the rodeo, one more for the show, one more pretender, who just had to go

11. Born To Lose

Lyrics by Schenker, Way, Mogg
Wonder if you belong, think you've got it down
Does it still feel the same, now that he's not around

Born to lose, Born to lose, make your mind up no fooling round
Now that I know, I could never be, I would never be the only one.


Wonder how it all began, as if that mattered anyway
There's someone else you're always wanting, every single day

Born to lose, born to lose, make your mind up no fooling round,
Now that I know, I could never be, I would never be the only one.

(1) instrumental -

Born to lose, Born to lose, make your mind up no fooling 'round
Now that I know, I could never be, I would never be the only one.
