1. Hell and Back
HELL `N BACK BY JWM ©1983
BEEN TRAVELING' DOWN THE FREEWAY
OFF THE BEATEN' TRACK
GOTTA MISSION ON MY MIND,
KEEP `EM OFF MY BACK
THIS AIN'T NO MISSION OF MERCY,
NO TIME TO WASTE
THE DECISION'S ON MY MIND,
GONNA STATE MY CASE
OH, WON'T YOU TELL ME
YOU'VE GOTTA HELP ME
AH, COME ON BABY (SAVE ME)....
HOW AM I GONNA GET TO HELL `N BACK?
AIN'T TALKIN' `BOUT SELF DESTRUCTION
TOO STRONG TO DIE
GOT OUR ENGINES HOT `N HIGHER....
TAKE US TO THE SKIES
WE SEE YOU WATCHING' THE FURY
CAN YOU FEEL THE RAGE
IT'S CALL THE FLAME OF DESIRE,
NOT JUST A BURNING CRAZE
(CHORUS)
(SOLO SECTION)
AND IF YOU FEEL LIKE I DO
NEVER LOOKING' BACK
HEAD ON TO THE DANGER ZONE
FULL FORCE ATTACK!
GET SET ! GET READY !!
WHAT'S THAT YOU SAY?!!
THIS TIME ALL HELL'S BREAKIN'
BREAKIN' AWAY....
(CHORUS)
HOW AM I GONNA GET TO HELL `N
HOW AM I GONNA GET TO HELL `N
HOW AM I GONNA GET TO HELL `N BACK...?
2. For the Crown
FOR THE CROWN BY JWM ©1983
I TAKE MY GIN ON THE ROCKS
TO RID ME OF THE DAY
IF THINGS DON'T GET BETTER
THAT'S HOW I'M GONNA STAY
I NEED SOME LOUD ROCK `N ROLL
TO MAKE ME FEEL all right
I NEED A RED HOT WENCH
TO GET ME THROUGH THE NIGHT
IF I EVER COME OUT OF THIS ALIVE
I KNOW I'LL NEVER DIE
IF MY LIFE WILL SEE ME TO THE END
I GOTTA TAKE WHAT THERE IS TO BEND
AND ROCKET, ROCK IT TO THE GROUND
SHAKE IT, SHAKE IT UP AND DOWN
BREAK IT, BREAK IT FOR THE CROWN
AND THEN PASS IT ALL AROUND TO YOU
A HEART MADE OF STONE
AND EYES OF FIRE
GONNA TAKE A COLD SLEDGE-HAMMER
TO BREAK ME FOR A BUYER
I GOT THE FUTURE ON MY MIND
AND FREEDOM IN MY SOUL
SOMEONE BREAK THE HANDS OFF TIME
GOTTA STOP US ALL GETTIN' OLD
AND WE'LL ROCKET, ROCK IT TO THE GROUND
SHAKE IT, SHAKE IT UP AND DOWN
BREAK IT, BREAK IT FOR THE CROWN
AND THEN WE'LL PASS IT ALL AROUND TO YOU
TO YOU, TO YOU, TO YOU, YEAH YOU!!!
(SOLO SECTION)
I TAKE MY GIN ON THE ROCKS
TO RID ME OF THE DAY
IF THINGS DON'T GET BETTER
WILL YOU COME JOIN ME...?
WITH, LOUD ROCK `N ROLL
TO MAKE US FEEL ALL RIGHT
AND ONE BIG PARTY
TO GET US THROUGH THIS LIFE
AND IF WE EVER COME OUT OF THIS ALIVE
I KNOW WE'LL NEVER DIE
IF OUR LIVES WILL SEE US TO THE END
WE GOTTA TAKE WHAT THERE IS TO BEND
AND ROCKET, ROCK IT TO THE GROUND
SHAKE IT, SHAKE IT UP AND DOWN
AND BREAK IT, BREAK IT FOR THE CROWN
AND THEN PASS IT ALL AROUND TO YOU
TO YOU, TO YOU, TO YOU,
EACH AND EVERYONE OF YOU
3. Need Your Lovin'
OH, I NEED YOUR LOVIN' BY JWM © 1976
BABY IT'S LATE AND I FEEL SO STRANGE
GIRL I WANNA SHOUT
I WANT LOVE, YES I WANT YOU
YOU KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT
PLAYIN' IN A BAND, TRYIN' TO MAKE A STAND
STILL I CAN'T SEEM TO GET IT ALL OUT
ALL I SEE IS YOU BABY, THE REST, JUST HAZY
WON'T SPEND ANOTHER NIGHT WITHOUT
OH, I NEED YOUR LOVIN'
OH, I NEED YOUR LOVE
COME ON BABY LETS ROCK `N ROLL
COME ON LETS HAVE SOME FUN
I'M WITH YOU, AND YOU'RE WITH ME
YOU KNOW YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE
MY SOUL'S ON FIRE WITH A BURNIN' DESIRE
IT'S A FEELING THAT I CAN'T SHUN
SO COME ON BABY, DON'T SAY MAYBE
LET'S DO IT `TIL THE MORNING SUN
OH, I NEED YOUR LOVIN'
OH, I NEED YOUR LOVE
(SOLO SECTION)
(CHORUS)
AH, BABY IT'S LATE, AND I FEEL SO STRANGE
GIRL I WANNA SHOUT
I WANT LOVE, YES I WANT YOU
YOU KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT
(CHORUS)
4. Streetwize
STREETWIZE ©JWM 1983
I'VE BEEN RUNNING THE STREETS
FOR MOST OF MY DAYS,
TRYIN' TO LIVE ON MY OWN
LIKE A ROLLIN STONE,
NEVER GATHERS NO MOSS...
ESPECIALLY, WHEN HE'S ROLLIN' ALONE
BEEN BUSTIN' MY ASS, TO GET BY
THOUGH IT NEVER DID ME NO WRONG
THOUGH IT NEVER DID ME NO RIGHT
DAY BY DAY I KEEP ROLLIN' ALONG
KEEPIN' MY NOSE OUTTA TROUBLE
STICKIN' CLOSE TO MY GUNS
I DID IT BEFORE AND I'LL DO IT AGAIN
AIN'T NOTHING GONNA MAKE ME RUN
I SAID, HEY, POLICEMAN
GET UP OFF OF MY CASE!
HEY, MR. POLICEMAN
I AIN'T WANTED NO PLACE
YOU'RE ALWAYS AROUND,
YOU KEEP WATCHING ME DOWN
FOR JUST BEING AROUND, ON THESE STREETS
THE STREET IS MY HOME
SO JUST LEAVE ME ALONE
I'M ROLLIN' ALONE TO BE FREE
LIVIN' IN THE SHADOWS
RUNNING IN THE RAIN
FEELING LIKE A CONVICT
FREEDOM DOWN THE DRAIN
I TRY TO GET ON NO WAY
YOU'RE THE WALL BETWEEN
SOLID BRICK, TEN MILES THICK
SO CONFINED I COULD SCREAM...
HEY! POLICEMAN
GET UP OFF OF MY CASE!
HEY, MR. POLICEMAN
I AIN'T WANTED NO PLACE
HEY! POLICEMAN
GET `EM OFF OF MY CASE!
HEY, MR. POLICEMAN
`CUZ I WEAR AN INNOCENT FACE
I SURE DO,
WORKING SO HARD TO PAY MY DUES
AND ALL THE TIME YOU KEEP WATCHING ME
WHAT DID I DO WRONG ?
SET ME FREE... NOW!
(SOLO SECTION)
(CHORUS)
THE DEPUTY, THE MARSHALL,
THE PIGS, THE FUZZ, AND THE HEAT
WHY, EVEN THE KEYSTONE COPS
AIN'T GOT NOTHING ON ME
I'M A FREE MAN,
RUNNING FOR MY LIFE MOST EVERYDAY
I DON'T HAVE NO WORRIES
AND NO DUES TO PAY
SO, KEEP YOUR EVIL EYES AWAY
AND KEEP YOUR EVIL LIES... AWAY
