Lyrics

1. EVIL, WICKED,MEAN & NASTY

Why do the good die young
And nice guys always finish last
Well, I used to live and let live
But now that's all in the past
And I'm learning fast

I'm givin' in to my temptation
I'm out to get myself a bad
reputation

Evil Wicked Mean & Nasty
Easy Sleazy c'mon and tease me
I'm Evil Wicked Mean & Nasty
C'mon

Always a punk on the streets
I was never the boy next door
oh no
I've been put down, I been
pushed around
And I'm not gonna take any more

I've had my fill - ha - of cheer and
goodwill, oh yeah
Now I'm going in for the kill

Evil Wicked Mean & Nasty
Easy Sleazy c'mon and tease me
I'm Evil Wicked Mean & Nasty

Rude, screwed, I been tattooed
I went to church in the nude
Just ask around, they'll say
that dude is
Evil Wicked Mean & Nasty

Why can't strong survive
Why must the meek inherit the Earth
I don't want no compromise
I'm gonna take a turn for the worst
- wo yeah

I'm givin' in to my temptation
I'm out to get myself a bad
reputation

Evil Wicked Mean & Nasty
Evil Wicked Mean & Nasty

Evil Wicked Mean & Nasty
Tease me please me, c'mon and
squeeze me

I'm Evil Wicked & Nasty

Rude, screwed, I'm one crude dude
Got a hunger for love and a
thirst for brew
When I'm dead and gone they'll say
that dude was
Evil Wicked Mean & Nasty


2. RIDING HIGH

Can you hear thunder, see the
white line shake
Feel the heat of my motor - burning
u the interstate

Ain't go no caution - ain't got
no brakes
And no time to slow down
so how much can you take

I'm your Backseat Driver - you're my
Highway Star
It's a matter of survival - so jump
into my car

Riding High
On a never ending quest for freedom
Riding High
Don't try and stop me now

Come a little closer - turn up
the radio
No destination, but I don't have
far to go

My pipes are smokin'
burning up with fire
fuel injected strokin'
Finding High desire

I'll be your Speed Demon
you're my Radar Love
it's a matter of survival
I can't get enough

Riding High
On a never ending quest for freedom
Riding High
Don't try and stop me now


3.DIE FIGHTING

Life is a gamble
so make your move
Get ready when it's a lot at stake
There's so much to lose, no
Meet your maker
Pay your dues

I'm rocking hard just to stay alive
When times are hard
the tough survive
Or Die Fighting

Aw, maybe life is a fool's game
But I wanna win
I'll be walkin' that fine line
Between justice and sin
I know they'll never bend
I'm gonna stand up and fight
Until the bitter end

(Chorus)

Sometimes the road's like a prison
And there ain't no key
Cuz always the endless highway
is calling for me
This ain't no give and take - oh no
And what will be will be
But me, I'm a rock
I've got to roll to be free


4. DREAMS ARE NOT ENOUGH

I keep dreamin' of the feeling
Just wanna reach out and hold you
Through the long night
chasing starlight
I'm haunted by visions of you

I know you're somewhere out there
And it's just not fair

I want you - I need you
And Dreams Are Not Enough
I need to really see you
Because Dreams Are Not Enough

Well, I'm a gambler and a rambler
But my heart just won't let you go
I'll keep tryin' - I'm not lyin'
if only I could let you know

There's something special about you
I don't wanna go on without you

I want you - I need you
And Dreams Are Not Enough
I need to be with you
Because Dreams Are Not Enough


5. SOMANY GOOD WAYS TO BE BAD

You say you're not that kind of girl
You don't wanna go all the way
But you can't stay home
in your bed alone
When the kid's are goin' out to play
- hey

Don't be so hard on yourself
'Cause good girls need love too
you don't have to hide
'cause I know deep inside

You wanna do what bad girls do

I can show you emotions
You didn't know you had
'cause there's

So Many Good Ways to Be Bad

You're walkin' the razor's edge
When you're closin' your bedroom
eyes
You feel desire
wanna play with fire
C'mon and give it a try

I can show you emotions
You didn't know you had
'cause there's

So Many Good Ways to Be Bad

And when you're tired of playin'
All those other games
oh baby I know
You're gonna wanna stay with me
You'll never be the same


6. FOOL FOR A PRETTY FACE

Will you tell me you want me
You say that me you want me
You say that you really care
Don't you tell me lies
'Cause when you leave me honey
You're gonna have a cross to bear

But it's two kind of people
that just can't stand
And that's a lyin' woman
or a beggin' man
Ain't nobody else gonna
take my place
'Cause I'm just a
Fool For A Pretty Face

I've been kicked - I've been hit
But I didn't hurt a little bit
Dick kicked nose picked
Even got my finger pricked
I've been hurt by love

I've been hurt by love
I've been hurt by love
I've been hurt by love
'Cause I'm a Fool For A Pretty Face

Now I don' have no reason
To think that you're mine
So why don'tcha keep your
love light shine

No I don't wanna hurt you
I ain't on your case
You can bet a nicket on a
Worn-out dime
I'm a Fool For A Pretty Face


7. HARD AS HELL (LIVE)

Turn on the red light
This situation's of control
Ain't no cure for snakebite
Just whisky and hot rock'n roll

Rise and shine - over and
over again
It don't come easy when you're
playin' to win

It's Hard As Hell
You make it when you take it, baby
Hard As Hell
c'mon and shake it

Pick up the pieces
C'mon babe, get down on my luck
No tellin' secrets, we both know
You just want to get stuck

In the middle of love
No you're not pulling my leg
I've got to hand it to you
No, you don't have to beg

Because I'm Hard As Hell
Everytime you take me baby
You make me Hard As Hell
C'mon and shake it

Hard rock candy
Guaranteed to melt in your mouth
You may be moist
around the edges baby
But there's fire down south

Blow by blow - over and over again
Touch and go - under your skin


8. ROCK N' ROLL ANIMAL (LIVE)

I feel the heat beneath my feet
I get the urge as my target moves into sight
The hunting ground is all around
The city streets are a jungle in the heat of the night

As my passion starts to grow
My instincts start to show
The animal inside
Has got nowhere to hide

Rock And Roll Animal
The music is my prey
I'm a Rock And Roll Animal
Don't get in my way
Don't get in my way - oh no

Dynamite - the feeling's right
I'm in for the kill - so let me out of my cage
I stake my claim - and you're the game
The tension mounts as I unleash my rage - yeah

And I'm on the prowl tonight
My fire's burning bright
The animal inside
Has got nowhere to hide

Rock And Roll Animal
The music is my prey
I'm a Rock And Roll Animal
Don't - don't - don't get in my way, yeah


9. PRIVATE LIES (LIVE)

The secrets of midnight
Are the hardest to keep
'Cause you can't hide your feelings
When you talk in your sleep - oh no

The smell of black leather
Or the look in your eye
Make it tough to conceal
What you feel
When you're living a lie

So sooner or later
You'll tell him those

Private Lies
About love in disguise
You know this can't go on -
No more, no more
You're tellin' Private Lies
While you fantasize
About me in you

And one of these long lonely nights
He's gonna know where you've been
You'll be caught in the middle
And you'll run to me again

Draw the line - face the music
Take a chance, win or lose
His or mine, baby you choose it
When the time comes to
Spread the news

[Chorus]

And sooner or later Baby
You'll feel me invade you, yeah


10. ROCK'N ROLL OUTLAW (LIVE)

I don't need lot of people
Tellin' me what to do
I don't need no long haired lady
To love me true as true

All I need is a rock'n roll band
And somewhere new to play
And I'm on my way, I'm on my way

I'm a Rock'n Roll Outlaw
And I'm on the run
I'm a Rock'n Roll Outlaw
I never needed anyone

My life isn't easy, baby
It's the life that I need
I got music livin' inside of me
I gotta set it free

Playin' music, babe is all I know
I got where it wants to take me

All I want from livin'
Is just be left alone
All I need is an open road
'Cause I'm a rolling stone, baby


11. THE RIGHT TO ROCK (LIVE)

All my life I've been fighting
For the right to make my stand
Scream my anthem to the night
And hold the power in my hand

I'm gonna do it my way

Or not do it at all
Taking the world on my terms
I'll take it by the balls

I'm fighting for justice
For the american way
I believe in what I do
And I mean what I say

You got it - The right to rock
We've got it - The right to rock

Don't let anyone tell you
How to live your life
We won't turn it off
We'll never turn it down
'Cause it's our way of life

I'm fighting for freedom
For the golden rule
The right to say what I feel
And the right to say it to you


12. COLD DAY IN HELL (LIVE)

Dream stealer - disbeliever
Don't take a chance on me
High risk - I'm a shot in the dark
I come easy but I don't come free

Shot down - I been kicked
in the teeth
Called crazy - call me a fool, yeah
Lay the odds, roll the dice
I'm gonna break all the rules

It'll be a Cold Day In Hell
When frozen eyes cast a spell
On a Cold Day In Hell
How much of your soul can you sell

Empty eyes of heartless friends
The night is mine again
Bitter streets of evil stares
No one listens, no one cares

But cold steel is made to last
And chains of gold are broken fast
This cold city ain't freezin' me
I'll be what Y wanna be

Get ready to go
Or get out of my way
I'm not takin' a free ride
I'm hot on a Cold Day In Hell
