Once A Rocker Always A Rocker
(Perry / M. Bell )



Took a boat to China
Took a jet to Rome
Lost found turn around
Brought my ass back home
        And I might love the ladies you know I love the life
Up down all around
I wanna do it twice

Once a rocker always a rocker
Can you hear the beat
Once a rocker always a rocker
Now you're gonna feel the heat

I don't got much to say I don't got much to show
But when I'm down I turn around and my feelings start to flow
Ain't got time for movies I don't got time for games
Up and down all around rolling once again

Once a rocker always a rocker
Can you hear the beat
Once a rocker always a rocker
Now you're gonna feel the heat

Once a rocker always a rocker
Only thing I know
Once a rocker always a rocker
Welcome to the show

J.P.

Once a rocker always a rocker
Can you hear the beat
Once a rocker always a rocker
Now you're gonna feel the heat

Once a rocker always a rocker
Only thing I know
Once a rocker always a rocker
Welcome to the show

Took a boat to China
Took a jet to Rome
Lost found turn around
Brought my ass back home
And I might love the ladies you know I love the life
Up down all around
I wanna do it twice

Once a rocker always a rocker
Can you hear the beat
Once a rocker always a rocker
Now you're gonna feel the heat

Once a rocker always a rocker
Only thing I know
Once a rocker always a rocker
Welcome to the show

Welcome to the show



Black Velvet Pants
( Perry )



I love the way they look
I love the way they feel
So c'mon babe I'm not made outta steel
Over the phone I could stay real cool
But face to face I lose control
I get near you baby I'm a just a fool
Black velvet pants Iivin' just for you
I love the way they look the way they feel... yeah

Now you really see the devil do the trick for me
I know what I like I'm just too blind to see
You walk on by can it be the jeans
'Cause in my arms it's a hundred and three
You drive me crazy you make me wanna scream
Black velvet pants cause an instant scene
I love the way they look the way they feel... yeah

Your black velvet pants they're all I need
Makin' life worth living easy to lead
Black velvet pants I'm addicted for sure
In your hip pocket ready for more... yeah

I love the way they look
I love the way they feel
C'mon babe I'm not made outta steel
Over the phone I could stay real cool
But face to face I lose control
I get near you baby I'm a just a fool
Black velvet pants I'm livin' just for you
I love the way they look the way they feel... yeah

I love the way they look
I love the way they feel

I love the way they look

Women In Chains
( R. Brooks / H. Tipton / T. Deluca )



Mary wears a red dress every night
Her office is a corner light
Workin' for the man who keeps her in her place
Workin' late

Sister secretary sweats all day
Underneath the boss' thumb
Gotta see him after hours for a raise
What a shame

We got our women in chains
Women in chains
What good are women in chains
Isn't it strange people are afraid to change
We got our women in chains

Suzie moral housewife scrubs the floor
Always drives the kids to school
Never keeps her husband waiting for a meal
Such a deal

He goes on a bender she stays home
Waitin' for another fight
The bruises is in the bedroom mirror never fade
She's afraid

We got our women in chains
Women in chains
What good are women in chains
Isn't it strange that people are afraid to change
We got our women in chains

You don't have to wear your cuffs tonight
You don't have to be a slave
You don't have to buy your freedom with your pain
It's a shame

We got our women in chains
Women in chains
What good are women in chains
Isn't it strange people are afraid to change

We got our women in chains
Women in chains
What good are women in chains
Isn't it strange people are afraid to change

We got our women in chains
Women in chains
Women in chains
We got our women in chains
We got our women in chains



4 Guns West
( Perry / M. Bell )



Four guns west this is not a test
The hawk is about to fly
San Diego L.A. San Francisco yesterday
Rockin' on Pacific time
We rode into town let loose with the sound
Left no doubt who's the best
High noon came on the trail again
Fastest guns in the west
Brooklyn Bridge

No absence of malice
We rode into Dallas
Our chambermaids didn't object
But the ladies in Austin lord it was exhaustin'
Runnin' with us neck and neck
We had'em in rage we blew'em off the stage
In Whichita Falls next night
We saw we conquered we came
Texas won't be the same
Four guns rocked midnight

Give it the gun

East we ride wanted dead or alive
In Tampa Bay the stage was set
We had to make bail to spring the gang outta jail
Mannatee County can't forget
Take your pistol off the wall
And heed the twilight call
Cincinnati is under attack
There's blood on the walls cops in the halls
See you when we get back
Golden Gate Bridge

Hold on



Crossfire
( Perry / M. Bell )



If ya wanna play ya better play to win
And winners never sleep
Gonna rip this town and lay me down
Pray my soul to keep
I was born the sky's went black
And the cats they moaned all night
Girls were cryin' talk was flyin' the boys got into a fight

I was caught
I was caught
I was caught in the crossfire

I was caught
I got caught
I was caught in the crossfire

The talk of the town is a girl named sue
And that's where trouble starts
Win place or show we didn't know
The diamonds from the hearts
A long time gone the thing was goin' on
when suzie was just a child
What that girl didn't know mama didn't show
Shotgun sheriff trial

I was caught
I was caught
I was caught in the crossfire

I was caught
I was caught
I was caught in the crossfire

Say hey baby dont'choo worry 'bout me
Never went to college got the first degree

I was caught
I was caught
I was caught in the crossfire

I was caught
I was caught
  I was caught in the crossfire

I was caught
I was caught
I was caught in the crossfire

I was caught
I was caught
I was caught in the crossfire

I was caught
I was caught
I was caught in the crossfire
Caught in the crossfire
Caught in the crossfire
Caught in the crossfire
                
Ooooow...

Crossfire



Adrianna
( Perry / M. Bell )



Guitar starts talkin'
Drums begin to pound
Kinda get the feelin'
We're the only ones around
Adrianna holds me
We start to swing and sway
Let my sorrows walk on
Let the music play

Adrianna tell me
When do you sleep
A when the guitar starts
You're up on your feet
Adrianna tell me
When do you sleep
A when the guitar starts
You're up on your feet

When adrianna dances the stars begin to spark
Feel the rhythm movin' poundin' in my heart
The moment that she passes swings her magic hips
Feel my body movin' toward adrianna's lips
We move with music dance through the night
Forever and after into the morning light
Well that guitar keeps on talkin'
Feel the drummer pound
Dance adrianna we're the only ones around

Adrianna tell me
When do you sleep
A when the guitar starts
You're up on your feet
Adrianna tell me
When do you sleep
A when the guitar starts
You're up on your feet

Adrianna tell me
When do you sleep
When the guitar starts
You're up on your feet
Adrianna tell me
When do you sleep
When the guitar starts
You're up on your feet

Adrianna... sleep
Adrianna
Adrianna... sleep
Adrianna
Adrianna... sleep
Adrianna
Adrianna... sleep
Adrianna
Adrianna... sleep
Adrianna
Adrianna... sleep
Adrianna



King Of The Kings
( Perry / M. Bell )



She's dressed up like a Swedish queen
With her hair piled on her head
She got the boots jacked up dress done right
The woman is Heaven sen-taa

She drives up in her daddy's Porche
With her poodle at her toes
Alligator bag silver in her hair
I wanna tell ya some more
I can't afford a horse or a rider
We spent the day in bed
The T.V. was on the money was gone
Whiskey flowin' in my head

She's a dream in the night
She's the queen of the streets
Anywhere we walk
I'm the king of the kings
I'm the king of the kings

She's a dream in the night
She's the queen of the streets
Anywhere we walk
I'm the king of the kings
I'm the king of the kings

Ha...

She's a dream in the night
She's the queen of the streets
Anywhere we walk
I'm the king of the kings
I'm the king of the kings

She's a dream in the night
She's the queen of the streets
And when we walk
I'm the king of the kings
I'm the king of the kings

She looks up with her twilight eyes
And lights her cigarette
She got time to spare cash to spend
It's time to place your bets
Six to one fight in a game that's tense
Gonna burn all through the night
And when the sun come up I could be on top
She's gonna look a sight... hey

She's a dream in the night
She's the queen of the streets
Anywhere we walk
I'm the king of the kings
I'm the king of the kings

She's a dream in the night
She's the queen of the streets
Anywhrere we walk
I'm the king of the kings
I'm the king of the kings

Dream in the night
Queen of the streets
Anywhere we walk
I'm the king of the kings
King of the kings... wooo

She's the dream in the night
She's the queen of the streets
Anywhere we walk
I'm the king of the kings
King of the kings

She's a dream in the night
She's the queen of the streets
Anywhere we walk
I'm king of the kings
King of the kings

She's a dream in the night
She's the queen of the streets

( Perry / M. bell )



Telephone a ringing
Someone poundin' on the door
Give me half a chance
To get up off the floor
Grab my stratocaster

And tell me where they're signin'
Got a one way ticket
Got a one track mind
Pale disposition

But they'd throw me outta court

Never Wanna Stop
( Perry / M. bell )



Baby wont'cha empty your pockets
Baby wont'cha empty your heart
Baby wont'cha you empty those empty eyes
Pretty lady give it a start

Poor boy baby
Gonna strike it rich
Like a rock-n-roll Robin Hood

I never... (never)
I never... (never)
Never wanna stop
I never... (never)
Never... (never)

Sister wont'cha tell me a story
Sister wont'cha tell me a tale
Judge and the jury
And the district attorney
Gonna try to put my ass in jail
Mama wont'cha gimme your blessing
Mama won't ya gimme a sign
Mama wont'cha give me all your love
Never gonna do no time

I said I never... (never)

Never wanna stop
Never... (never)

Sally wont'cha gimme your lovin'
Sally wont'cha make me high
Sally wont'cha ya light up all the stars
And fly up in the sky
High up in the mountains
In the valley low
The blackness of the desert night
And in the white as snow
Baby wont'cha gimme a reason
Baby wont'cha make me smile
Baby wont'cha plan my getaway
I swear I'll never do no time

I said I never... (never)
Never... (never)
Never wanna stop
Never... (never)
Never... (never)
Never wanna stop

Never... (never)
Never... (never)
Never wanna stop
Never... (never)

Ain't nobody gonna stop us
Ain't nobody gonna stop us

Ya know it changes our address
The I.R.S................



I.R.S. means the Internal Revenue Service
