Cool woman, cool eyes, you got me hypnotized

So make your move, yeah, make me
And get ready for the big "C"

Let it rock, yeah
Let it roll, let it
Let it go, let it go
You gotta let it rock, come on
Let it roll, yeah just let it go

Slow down, hold on
You're too fast, you're too strong
Take it easy, take it slow
Make it last, don't let go
We're one body, it's one way
You're not leaving, c'mon stay
So get down on your knees
And let me know you're eager to please

Let it rock, yeah

Let it go
Let it go

Cool woman, cool eyes

Slow down, hold on
You're too fast, too strong
I need a woman, a woman to love
One good woman
And you got what I want, what I want

Slow down, hold on
You're much too fast, you're much too strong
Take it slow, make it last
Take it easy, not too fast
Don't let go

No, I'm rock steady, but still shaking
And I'm ready for the taking
So make your move, yeah make me
And get a-ready for the big "C", yeah

3. High 'n' Dry (Saturday Night)

Saturday, I feel right, I been drinking all day
Yes I got a date, a midnight ride, I had to get it away

Yeah, I'm not a loner, I'm not a fool
Don't need a reason, reason to be cool
I got my whisky, I got my wine
I got my woman and this time the lights are going out

Saturday night, high
Saturday night, high 'n' dry
Saturday night, I'm high
Saturday night, high 'n' dry

I feel bad, I feel mean, I'm up and down and in between
On the bottle, I'm on the line, I'm up and feeling fine

I'm not a loner, I'm not a fool
Don't need a reason, reason to be cool
I got my whisky, I got my wine
I got my woman, and this time the lights are going out

Saturday night, high
Saturday night, high 'n' dry
Saturday night, I'm high
Saturday night, high 'n' dry
Oh take me high

Saturday, kickin' out, her train was comin' to me
I gotta move, number one, saturday night on the run

Saturday night, high
Saturday night, high 'n' dry
Saturday night, got my whisky
Saturday night, got my wine
Saturday night, got my woman
Saturday night, high 'n' dry
You gotta try me tonight




4. Bringin' on the Heartbreak (with Pete Willis)

Gypsy, sittin' lookin' pretty
A broken rose with laughin' eyes
You're a mystery, always runnin' wild
Like a child without a home
You're always searching, searching for a feeling
That it's easy come and easy go
Oh I'm sorry but it's true

You're bringin' on the heartache
Takin' all the best of me, oh can't you see
You got the best of me, oh can't you see

You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
Can't you see

You're such a secret, misty eyed and shady
Lady how you hold the key
Oh you're like a candle, your flame slowly fadin'
Burnin' out and burnin' me
Can't you see
Just try and say to you

You're bringin' on the heartache
Takin' all the best of me, oh can't you see
You got the best of me, oh can't you see

You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
Can't you see, can't you see
No, no, no

You got the best of me, oh can't you see
You got the best of me, oh can't you see

You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
You're bringin' on the heartbreak




5. Photograph

I'm outa luck, outa love
Gotta photograph, picture of
Passion killer, you're too much
You're the only one I wanna touch
I see your face every time I dream
On every page, every magazine
So wild so free so far from me
You're all I want, my fantasy

Oh, look what you've done to this rock 'n' roll clown
Oh Oh, look what you've done

Photograph - I don't want your
Photograph - I don't need your
Photograph - All I've got is a photograph
But it's not enough

I'd be your lover, if you were there
Put your hurt on me, if you dare
Such a woman, you got style
You make every man feel like a child
You got some kinda hold on me
You're all wrapped up in mystery
So wild so free so far from me
You're all I want, my fantasy

Oh, Look what you've done to this rock'n'roll clown
Oh Oh, Look what you've done

Repeat chorus

You've gone straight to my head




6. Rock of Ages

Rise up! gather round
Rock this place to the ground
Burn it up let's go for broke
Watch the night go up in smoke

Rock on! Rock on!

Drive me crazier, no serenade
No fire brigade, just Pyromania

What do you want? What do you want?
I want rock'n'roll, yes I do
Long live rock'n'roll

Let's go, let's strike a light
We're gonna blow like dynamite
I don't care if it takes all night
Gonna set this town alight

What do you want? What do you want?
I want rock'n'roll, Allright!
Long live rock'n'roll

Rock of ages, rock of ages
Still rollin', keep a-rollin'
Rock of ages, rock of ages
Still rollin', rock'n'rollin'

We got the power, got the glory
Just say you need it and if you need it
Say yeah!

Heh heh heh heh
Now listen to me
I'm Burnin', Burnin', I got the fever
I know for sure, there ain't no cure
So feel it, don't fight it, go with the flow
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme one more for the road

What do you want? What do you want?
I want rock'n'roll, You betcha
Long live rock'n'roll

Repeat chorus

We're gonna burn this damn place down
Down to the ground




7. Foolin'

Lady luck never smiles
So lend your love to me, awhile
Do with me what you will
Break the spell take your fill

On and on we rode the storm
The flame has died, the fire has gone
Oh, this empty bed is a night alone
I realized that long ago

Is anybody out there? Anybody there?
Does anybody wonder? Anybody care?

Oh, I just gotta know
If you're really there and you really care
'Cause baby I'm not

F-F-F-Foolin', Ah F-F-Foolin'
Not F-F-F-Foolin', Ah F-F-Foolin'

Won't you stay with me awhile

close your eyes don't run and hide
Easy love is no easy ride
Just wakin' up from what we had
Could stop good love from going bad




8. Too Late for Love

Somewhere in the distance I hear the bells ring
Darkness settles on the town as the children start to sing
The lady 'cross the street she shuts out the night
There's a cast of thousands waiting as she turns out the light

But it's too late, too late, too late
Too late for love
Yes it's too late too late, too late
Too late for love

London boys are staring as the girls go hand in hand
With a pocket full of innocence, their entrance is grand
And the Queen of the dream stands before them all
She stretches out her hand as the curtains start to fall

Standing by the trapdoor aware of me and you
Are the actor and the clown their waiting for their cue
And there's a lady over there she's acting pretty cool
But when it comes to playing life she's always playin' the fool




9. Rock ! Rock ! (Till You Drop)

Hold onto your hat, hold onto your heart
Ready, get set to tear this place apart
Don't need a ticket, only place in town
That'll take you up to heaven and never bring you down
Anything goes! Anything goes!

Women to the left, Women to the right
There to entertain and take you thru the night
So grab a little heat and come along with me
'Cause your mama don't mind what your mama don't see
Anything goes! Anything goes!

Rock! Rock! till you drop
Rock! Rock! never stop
Rock! Rock! till you drop
Rock! Rock! to the top

Ridin' into danger, laughin' all the way
Fast, free and easy, livin' for today
Gotta lip service, get it while you can
Hot, sweat 'n' nervous love on demand
Anything goes! Anything goes!

Rock! Rock! Give it to me
It's what I got goin' thru' me
Don't ever stop do it to me
Yeah, Rock! Rock! You really move me




10. Bringin' on the Heartbreak (with Phil Collen)

Gypsy, sittin' lookin' pretty
A broken rose with laughin' eyes
You're a mystery, always runnin' wild
Like a child without a home
You're always searching, searching for a feeling
That it's easy come and easy go
Oh I'm sorry but it's true

You're bringin' on the heartache
Takin' all the best of me, oh can't you see
You got the best of me, oh can't you see

You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
Can't you see

You're such a secret, misty eyed and shady
Lady how you hold the key
Oh you're like a candle, your flame slowly fadin'
Burnin' out and burnin' me
Can't you see
Just try and say to you

You're bringin' on the heartache
Takin' all the best of me, oh can't you see
You got the best of me, oh can't you see

You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
Can't you see, can't you see
No, no, no

You got the best of me, oh can't you see
You got the best of me, oh can't you see

You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
You're bringin' on the heartbreak




11. Me and My Wine

Well I'm down in the alley of Sally and I'm feeling my way
And it's four in the morning, I don't have a lot I can say
I know I'm looking for some satisfaction
But there ain't much news
Got some walking from a back reaction
I'm hanging down and loose

Me and the boys have been drinking
Feeling like this is the wrong time for thinking
All I can say is I'm doing fine with just me and my wine

Now my brain and my body are runnin' on different rails
And I died and just say hi what if all else fails
Oh I woke up in a subway station
Lying half dead on the floor
I don't remember anything
What happened the night before

Oh me and the boys have been drinking
Feeling like this is the wrong time for thinking
All I can say is I'm doing fine with just me and my wine

Now listen
My hair's a real mess, I feel and look like a joke
And there's a hole in my jeans
I just ran right out of smokes
You know I'd like to get to know you
But I ain't got the time
I'm finding it harder and harder
To make this damn thing rhyme

Just me and my wine
Well just me and my wine
You know that I'm doing fine
Well just me and my wine

Thank you




12. Women

In the beginning God made the land
Then He made the water and creatures
Then He made man
He was born with a passion, love and hate
A restless spirit with a need for a mate
But there was something that was missing
Something lost
So he came with the answer, here's what it cost
One part love, one part wild
One part lady, one part child

I give you
Women, women, lots of pretty women
Men, men, they can't live without them
Women, women, lots of pretty women
Men, men, they can't live without them

And in the garden, lust began
The animal instinct, the wanton man
She fed him with a hunger, an appetite
And fillin' with emotion he took a bite
It was one part love, one part child
One part lover, one part wild

I give you
Women, women, lots of pretty women
Men, men, they can't live without them
Women, women, lots of pretty women
Men, men, they can't live without them

Skin on skin, let the love begin
Women

It was one part love, one part wild
One part lover, one part child
A whole lotta fire, a little bit of ice
A whole lotta something you can't sacrifice

I give you
Hair, eyes, skin on skin
Legs, thighs
What's that spell

Women, women, oh, oh
Women, women, callin' every girl
Women, women, all around the world
Women, women, oh we can't live without them
Women, women




13. Animal

A wild ride, over stony ground
Such a lust for life, the circus comes to town
We are the hungry ones on a lightning raid
Just like a river runs, like a fire needs flame
I burn for you

I gotta feel it in my blood
I need your touch don't need your love

And I want, and I need, and I lust
Animal
And I want, and I need, and I lust
Animal

I cry wolf, given mouth to mouth
Like a movin' heartbeat in the witching hour
I'm runnin' with the wind, a shadow in the dust
And like the drivin' rain, like the restless rust
I never sleep

I gotta feel it in my blood
I need your touch don't need your love

And I want, and I need, and I lust
Animal
And I want, and I need, and I lust
Animal

Cry wolf baby
Cry tough
Gonna hunt you like an, uh uh animal
Gonna take your love 'n' run

I gotta feel it in my blood
I need your touch don't need your love

And I want, and I need, and I lust
Animal
And I want, and I need, and I lust
Animal
And I want, and I want
And I need, and I need
And I lust, and I lust
Animal, animal
And I want, take me
And I need, tame me
And I lust, make me
Animal, your animal

And I want, show me
And I need, stroke me
And I lust, let me be your
Animal, animal
And I want, I want
And I need, ooh
And I lust, animal
Animal

18. Love Bites

If you've got love in your sights
Watch out, love bites

When you make love, do you look in the mirror?
Who do you think of, does he look like me?
Do you tell lies and say that it's forever?
Do you think twice, or just touch 'n' see?
Oooh babe

When you're alone, do you let go?
Are you wild 'n' willin' or is it just for show?
Ooh c'mon

I don't wanna touch you too much baby
Cause making love to you might drive me crazy
I know you think that love is the way you make it
So I don't wanna be there when you decide to break it
No

Love bites, love bleeds
It's bringin' me to my knees
Love lives, love dies
It's no surprise
Love begs, love pleads
It's what I need

When I'm with you, are you somewhere else?
Am I gettin' thru or do you please yourself?
When you wake up, will you walk out?
It can't be love if you throw it about

I don't wanna touch you too much baby
'Cos making love to you might drive me crazy

Love bites, love bleeds
It's bringin' me to my knees
Love lives, love dies
It's no surprise
Love begs, love pleads
It's what I need

I don't wanna touch you too much baby
'Cos making love to you might drive me crazy
I know you think that love is the way you make it
So I don't wanna be there when you decide to break it
No

Love bites, love bleeds
It's bringin' me to my knees
Love lives, love dies

Love bites, love bleeds
It's bringin' me to my knees
Love lives, love dies
It's no surprise
Love begs, love pleads
It's what I need

If you've got love in your sights
Watch out, love bites
