If you can't rock me
I'll find somebody that can
If you can't rock me
Don't be tellin' me I'm your man
I'm gonna turn that skillet
Up to high
Don't you tell that chick's
Too young to fry
If you can't rock me
I'll find somebody who can
I'll find somebody who can

If you can't rock me
Don't be knockin'on my door
If you can't rock me
Don't you come around here no more
I'm gonna turn that juke joint
Upside down
Dance six inches
Off the ground
If you can't rock me
I'll find someone who can

Don't be whisperin' in my ear
Tellin' me things
That I wanna hear
Dontcha be tellin' I'm your guy
Then you go and leave me high and dry

If you can't rock me
I'm gonna rock this town myself
If you can't rock me
I'm gonna tear it up
With somebody else
I may have to search
All across the land
Find me a gig
With a rock n' roll band
If you can't rock me
I'll find somebody who can

The trouble train is comin'
It's been rollin' through this town
Since I don't know when
The trouble train they call it
And once you're on it
You just can't get off it my friend

Don't get on that train again
It's rollin' and thunderin'
Round the bend
If you hear the devil call your name
Don't get on that trouble train
(Trouble train, trouble train)
If you hear the devil call your name
Don't get on that trouble train

The trouble tain is comin'
It's full of trouble souls
Who have gone astray
The trouble train is burnin'
It's puffing smoke and fire
And it's headed your way

Now don't get on that train again
It's a long way down
Please listen my friend
If you hear the devil call your name
Don't get on that trouble train
(Trouble train, trouble train)
If the devil's calling out your name
He's riding on that trouble train
(Trouble train)

The trouble train's left the station
It's claimed another soul
It'll come back again
The trouble train's damnation
Is a one-way ticket to the fiery end

Don't get on that train again
It's a long way down
Please listen my friend
If you hear the devil call your name
Don't get on that trouble train

Don't get on that train again
It's a long way down
Please listen my friend
If you hear the devil call your name
Don't get on that trouble train

When you're young and so in love as we
And bewildered by the world we see
Why do people hurt us so
Only those in love would know
What a town without pity can do

If we stop to gaze upon a star
People talk about how bad we are
Ours is not an easy age
We're like tigers in a cage
What a town without pity can do

The young have problems, many problems
We need an understanding heart
Why don't they help us, try to help us
Before this clay and granite planet falls apart

Take these eager lips and hold me fast
I'm afraid this kind of joy can't last
How can we keep love alive
How can anything survive
When these little minds tear you in two
What a town without pity can do

How can we keep love alive
How can anything survive
When these little minds tear you in two
What a town without pity can do

No, it isn't very pretty
What a town without pity can do

This old house once knew its children
This old house once knew its wife
This old house was home and comfort
As they fought the storms of life

This old house once rang with laughter
This old house heard many shouts
Now it trembles in the darkness
When the lightning walks about

Ain't gonna need this house no longer
Ain't gonna need this house no more
Ain't got time to fix the shingles
Ain't got time to fix the floor
Ain't got time to oil the hinges
Nor to mend the window pain
Ain't gonna need this house no longer
He's getting ready to meet the saints

This old house is gettin' shaky
This old house is gettin' old
This old house has seen the rain
This old house has seen the cold

Oh his knees are gettin' chilly
But he feels no fear or pain
'Cause he sees an angel peepin'
Through a broken window pane

Ain't gonna need this house no longer
Ain't gonna need this house no more
Ain't got time to fix the shingles
Ain't got time to fix the floor
Ain't got time to oil the hinges
Nor to mend the window pain
Ain't gonna need this house no longer
He's getting ready to meet the saints

This old house is gettin' shaky
This old house is gettin' old
This old house has seen the rain
This old house has seen the cold

Oh his knees are gettin' chilly
But he feels no fear or pain
'Cause he sees an angel peepin'
Through a broken window pane

Ain't gonna need this house no longer
Ain't gonna need this house no more
Ain't got time to fix the shingles
Ain't got time to fix the floor
Ain't got time to oil the hinges
Nor to mend the window pain
Ain't gonna need this house no longer
He's getting ready to meet the saints

This cat's on a hot tin roof
Drinkin' that whiskey, 96 proof
Don't need no doctor, don't feel no pain
My legs are just two steps ahead of my brain

This cat's on a hot tin roof
This cat's gonna shake it loose
This cat don't get the blues
'Cause this cat's shakin' on a hot tin roof

This cat's been out on the town
I'm the cat's meow, I'm the king with a crown
My head is spinnin' and I got the shakes
I can't stop now 'cause I got no brakes

This cat's on a hot tin roof
This cat's gonna shake it loose
This cat don't get the blues
'Cause this cat's shakin' on a hot tin roof

There ain't no point in holdin' me down
I'll kick and I'll scratch and I'll howl
Hey hound dog, get outta my way
'Cause this cat is on the prowl

This cat's on a hot tin roof
Jumpin' up and down like a long neck goose
Shimmy and shake, baby you can't fail
Rockin' so hard that it's off the scale

This cat's on a hot tin roof
This cat's gonna shake it loose
This cat don't get the blues
'Cause this cat's shakin' on a hot tin roof

Now some people got it and some people don't
I'm talkin' 'bout gettin' all the things in life that you want
You can wish it might happen
You can call it dumb luck
But that guy's so lucky, he's just way much too much

He's the man with the magic touch
He's the man with the magic touch
Don't give me all that "got lucky" such and such
He's the man with the magic touch

He won an all-expenses-paid vacation on a cruise ship 'round the world
And when he gets home, he don't bother lookin' for no girl
He's got a straight to the ace
He got a royal flush
Baby go rub his back for good luck

He's the man with the magic touch
He's the man with the magic touch
Don't give me all that "got lucky" such and such
He's the man with the magic touch

He goes back to back, he goes hip to hip
He goes face to face, now here' s the tip
If he don't want it
He throws it right back
He knows some poor sucker's gonna take up the slack

He's the man with the magic touch
He's the man with the magic touch
Don't give me all that "got lucky" such and such
He's the man with the magic touch

My blood is percolatin'
I'm set for detonation
When it comes to good lovin'
He ain't hesitatin'
He's the man with the magic touch

Well, the house is a-rockin'
Don't bother knockin'
Yeah the house is a-rockin'
Don't bother knockin'
Yeah the house is a-rockin'
Don't bother come on in

Kick off your shoes, start losin' the blues
This old house ain't got nothin' to lose
Seen it all for years, start spreadin' the news
We got room on the floor
Come on baby shake sumpin' loose

Well, the house is a-rockin'
Don't bother knockin'
Yeah the house is a-rockin'
Don't bother knockin'
Yeah the house is a-rockin'
Don't bother come on in

Walkin' up the street you can hear the sound
Of some bad honky-tonkers really layin' it down
They've seen it all for years and got nothin' to lose
So get out on the floor
Shimmy til you shake sumpin' loose

Well, the house is a-rockin'
Don't bother knockin'
Yeah the house is a-rockin'
Don't bother knockin'
Yeah the house is a-rockin'
Don't bother come on in

> I got a little boogie but it ain't too clean
It's real low down and it's kinda mean
The dirty boogie
The dirty boogie
When I get low down, it's the dirty boogie for me
The dirty boogie
What's it called?
The dirty boogie
Hey you all
The dirty boogie
How's it go?
The dirty boogie
Not too slow
When I get low down, it's the dirty boogie for me
Well you rattle and shake, you moan and groan
A girl like you I could never bring home
The dirty boogie
The dirty boogie
When I get low down, it's the dirty boogie for me
The dirty boogie
What's it called?
The dirty boogie
Hey you all
The dirty boogie
How's it go?
The dirty boogie
Not too slow
When I get low down, it's the dirty boogie for me
They're shakin' their hips and scream and shout
And doin' things I can't even talk about
The dirty boogie
Catch my drift
The dirty boogie
When I get low down, it's the dirty boogie for me
The dirty boogie
What's it called?
The dirty boogie
Hey you all
The dirty boogie
How's it go?
The dirty boogie
Not too slow
When I get low down, it's the dirty boogie for me

Switchblade 327
Lit cigarette in his hand
Steel-toed boots on the accelerator
Oil leakin' outta the pan

Switchblade, three two-barrels
Gettin' there as fast as he can
All juiced up like a hot carburetor
Spittin' gas onto the fan

Blacktop burnout, Saturday night
Try to catch him if you can

Switchblade 327
Switchblade, seven come eleven
Switchblade, he's all right
When he gets drunk he fights all night

Switchblade 327
Pullin' way ahead of the pack
Chop top deuce, Saturday night
Flames shootin' outta the back

Switchblade, don't cut him off
He won't cut you no slack
He'll cut you to ribbons if you come to town
He'll carve his name in your back

Blacktop burnout, Saturday night
Try to catch him if you can

Switchblade 327
Switchblade, seven come eleven
Switchblade, he's all right
When he gets drunk he fights all night

Switchblade 327
Someone was calling his name
All he could hear was his engine
And the sound of the pouring down rain

Switchblade 327
Ran 125 down the lane
But someone had cut both his fuel lines
And the '32 burst into flames

Blacktop burnout, Saturday night
Try to catch him if you can

Switchblade 327
Switchblade, seven come eleven
Switchblade, he's all right
When he gets drunk he fights all night (repeat)

I don't have plans and schemes
And I don't have hopes and dreams
Baby, I just don't have anything
Since I don't have you

I don't have fond desires
And I don't have happy hours
Baby, I just don't have anything, anything
Since I don't have you, I don't have you

I don't have happiness
And I guess I never will ever again
When you walked out on me
In walked old misery
And he's been here since then



I don't have love to share
And I don't have one who cares
Baby, I just don't have anything
Since I don't have you, I don't have you

I don't have happiness
And I guess I never will ever again
When you walked out on me
In walked old misery
And he's been here since then

I don't have love to share
And I don't have one who cares
Baby, I just don't have anything
Since I don't have you

When it's raining and times are hard
And there's too much junk in the backyard
You hope for a rainbow
Be it lotto or keno
In the trailer park
That's the light in the dark
In all of the valleys
Under lucky stars
By the satellite dishes
And the non-running cars
I'm feeling all the people dreaming

Blue tiles are cool
All around the pool
Greek columns are fine
But give me a deal on the vine
Nothing pretentious
I haven't changed
I got sixty billion
But I'm still the same

The pool is hot
The beer is cold
The cigar costs a lot
And the wine is old
Where the car reps dream
Like Walter Mitty
Oh, book me a berth
In Sammy Davis City, yeah!

Well, Annie and Danny
Are growing too fast
And I can't fix the hammock
'Cause I'm feeling half-assed
Those basket ball hoops
Became chicken coops
There's a motel for sale
A cafe and a jail
In all of the valleys
Under lucky Stars
By the satillite dishes
and the non-running cars

I'm feeling all the people dreaming
Blue tiles are cool
All around the pool
Greek columns are fine
But give me a deal on the vine
Nothing pretentious
I haven't changed
I got sixty billion
But I'm still the same

The pool is hot
The beer is cold
The cigar costs a lot
And the wine is old
Where the car reps dream
Like Walter Mitty
Oh, book me a berth
In Sammy Davis City, yeah!

I'm feeling all the people dreaming
Feeling all the people dreaming
Feeling all the people ... dreaming

There's the rockabilly cats with their pomps real high
Wearin' black drape coats, all real gone guys
Cool skinheads with their rolled-up jeans
Lookin' real tough and mighty mean

There's a rumble in Brighton tonight
Ringside seats for the neighborhood fight
There ain't a damn thing that the cops can do
There's a rumble in Brighton tonight

They sew fishhooks under their collars
They got razors in their shoes
I said, "Go cat go," their battle cry
World War III is startin' to brew

Now the skinheads all use blackjacks
And they're lookin' mighty mean
They got chains wrapped around their fingers
And their heads are all shaved clean

There's a rumble in Brighton tonight
Ringside seats for the neighborhood fight
There ain't a damn thing that the cops can do
There's a rumble in Brighton tonight

Well, there ain't a man left standin'
So let's all go get a beer
No team is a winner
So we'll see you all next year

There's a rumble in Brighton tonight
Ringside seats for the neighborhood fight
There ain't a damn thing that the cops can do
There's a rumble in Brighton tonight

Rumble in Brighton tonight
Rumble on the beach tonight
Rumble in Brighton tonight
Rumble on the beach tonight

There ain't a damn thing that the cops can do
Line right up for a sideline view
Ringside seats for the neighborhood fight
There's a rumble in Brighton tonight

Well, my baby and me went out late Saturday night
I had my hair piled high and my baby just looked so right
Well, pick you up and ten, gonna get you home at two
Your mama don't know what I got in store for you
But baby that's all right we're looking as cool as can be

We found a little place that really didn't look half bad
I had a whiskey on the rocks and change of a dollar for the jukebox
Well, I put a quarter right into that can
But all it played was disco, man
Come on pretty baby, let's get out of here right away

We're gonna rock this town
Rock it inside out

We're gonna rock this town
Make 'em scream and shout

Let's rock, rock, rock, man, rock
We're gonna rock 'til we pop
Gonna roll 'til we drop
Rock this town
Rock it inside out

Well, we're having a ball just tearing up the big dance floor
Well, there's a real square cat, he looks 1974
Well, he looked at me once, he looked at me twice
Look at me again and there's gonna be a fight
We're gonna rock this town
Rip this place apart

We're gonna rock this town
Rock it inside out

We're gonna rock this town
Make 'em scream and shout
Let's rock, rock, rock, man, rock
