Your mama told you, baby, I'm not the man for you
And what your daddy told you, darling, ain't nothing but the truth
I'm a rocker, I'm a roller, I'm a stone cold drinking man
I'm going to give you loving the only way I can
Don't you worry, baby, I'll be there by your side

Out of the night, I come to take your love
Out of the night, I've got to have your love

I'm a reckless outlaw, a renegade by trade
All I've got is this guitar and that's how it's got to stay
I'll find time to love you, you know I'll do it right
I'll find time to love you, and I'll make you feel all right

Out of the night, I'll give you all you need
Out of the night, so late at night I hear you plead

You're you're what I need
You're you're what I need tonight

Out of the night, I come to take your love
Out of the night, I've got to have your love

Your mama told you, baby, I'm not the man for you
And what your daddy told you, darling, ain't nothing but the truth
I'll find time to love you, you know I'll do it right
I'll find time to love you, and I'll make you feel all right

Out of the night, I come to take your love
Out of the night, your love your love your love
Out of the night, I need your loving all night long
Out of the night, I need it all the time
Out of the night, your love your love your love
Oof the night

. . .


The old man told me, hey, you make a choice
You can make the music and stop all your noise
Or you can get out and find your own way
I told him stick it, my rock's here to stay

No, no, I can't live without it
No, no, it just ain't the same
No, no, ain't no doubt about it
No, no, oh so rock me again

I want to roll it and burn it all night
Me and my chevy don't stop for no lights
Cranking the metal, blasting the plant
They want to catch me, bet you they can't

I'm out on the road, and I'm rocking, stick it, stick it
I'm out on the road, there's no stopping, stick it, stick it
I'm out on the road, and I'm rocking, stick it, stick it
I'm out on the road, and I'm gone

I'm out on the road, and I'm rocking, stick it, stick it
I'm out on the road, there's no stopping, stick it, stick it
I'm out on the road, and I'm rocking, stick it, stick it
I'm out on the road, and I'm gone, I'm gone

Stick it, stick it
Stick it, stick it
Stick it, stick it
Stick it, stick it
Stick it, stick it
Stick it, stick it
Stick it, stick it
Stick it, stick it
Stick it, stick it
In your heart

You think we look pretty good together?
You think my jeans are made of leather?

But I'm a substitute for another guy
I look pretty tall but my heels are high
The simple things you see are all complicated
I look pretty young but I'm just backdated

Substitute, your lies for fact
Substitute, I see right through that Satan crap
Substitute, I look all white but my dad was black
Substitute, my fine looking suit's really made out of sack

I was born with a plastic spoon in my mouth
The north side of my town faced east and east was facing south
But now you dare to look me in the eye
Those are crocodile tears that you cry
A genuine problem you won't try
To work it out at all, just pass it by, pass it by

Substitute, me for him
Substitute, my coke for gin
Substitute, you for my mom
Substitute, at least I'll get my washing done

But I'm a substitute for another guy
I look pretty tall but my heels are high
The simple things you see are all complicated
I look pretty young but I'm just backdated

I was born with a plastic spoon in my mouth
The north side of my town faced east and east was facing south
But now you dare to look me in the eye
Those are crocodile tears that you cry
A genuine problem you won't try
To work it out at all, just pass it by, pass it by

Substitute, your lies for fact
Substitute, I see right through that Satan crap
Substitute, I look all white but my dad was black
Substitute, my fine looking suit's really made out of sack

Substitute, me for him
Substitute, my coke for gin
Substitute, you for my mom
Substitute, at least I'll get my washing done

Young boy, a hard gin ride
On the loose again
Live fast to play both sides
I'm out to win

I'm no loser
I got nothing to lose
My life ain't easy
But it's mine to use

Raised on the streets I know
To get what you want you got to take control

I'm on the run, bad boys
I'm on the loose, bad boys
I'm on my way, bad boys
I've paid my dues

Pull of the trigger
Time starts to crawl
Two lives are ended
When the hammer falls

Raised on the streets I know
To get what you want you got to take control

I'm on the run, bad boys
I'm on the loose, bad boys
I'm on my way, bad boys
I've paid my dues

I'm on the run, bad boys
I'm on the loose, bad boys
I'm on my way, bad boys
I've paid my dues

The lost years were long, each night was cold
The way I felt? Feel the snow
But I did my time, paid what i owed
Don't want those walls of steel and stone

I'm on the run, bad boys
I'm on the loose, bad boys
I'm on my way, bad boys
I've paid my dues

I'm on the run, bad boys
I'm on the loose, bad boys
I'm on my way, bad boys
I've paid my dues

I put myself, bad boys
Behind the walls, bad boys
Now that I'm back, bad boys
Ain't going to fall, bad boys

. . .


I can take you up
I can tear you down
I'm a heat wave coming at you
Taking what I please
Falling on your knees
You need me, yes, you do

From the moment I take over
You're going to call me back for more

Down on your knees, down on your knees, down on your knees
Down on your knees, down on your knees, down on your knees

Knocking down your door
Pull you to the floor
'Cause you need it so bad
Taking what I choose
Never going to lose
I love to drive the young girls wild

Going to drive my love inside you
Going to nail your arse to the floor to the floor

Down on your knees, down on your knees, down on your knees
Down on your knees, down on your knees, down on your knees
Down on your knees, down on your knees, down on your knees
Down on your knees, down on your knees, down on your knees

Here I come now, baby, kicking down your door
Here I come now, baby, pull you to the floor
Taking what I choose, girl, I'm never going to lose
I love to drive the young girls wild, driving my love inside of you

Down on your knees, down on your knees, down on your knees
Down on your knees, down on your knees, down on your knees
Get down on your knees, get down on your knees, get down on your knees
Down on your knees, down on your knees, down on your knees
I want you on your knees
Down on your knees, down on your knees, down on your knees
Down on your knees, down on your knees, down on your knees

. . .


Every life has a price
Every fool throws the dice
Even the winners have to pay
Every dog has its day

So watch out, watch what you do
Someone's looking for you

It's the law of the land
Every fire burns a hand
Every chance that you take
Might turn out to be your last mistake

So watch out, watch who you do
Someone's looking for you

Streetkiller
Streetkiller
Streetkiller
Streetkiller

So watch out, watch who you do
Someone's looking for you

Lay down your life
You'll pay the price
Lay down your life
You're in his sights

Streetkiller
Streetkiller, he's looking for you
Streetkiller
Streetkiller, he's out for your blood
Streetkiller, he's playing your game
Streetkiller, needle and spoon
Streetkiller, he's hard on your arse
Streetkiller
Streetkiller

. . .


Closing your eyes to the truth that surrounds you
Won't make life easy to take
Filling your heart with the hate that inflames you
Just makes it burn out and break

Want someone to love you?
Want someone to care?
Want someone there by your side?
But you're building walls of plaster
Building walls of bone
Now there's nowhere left to hide

No better than hell, no, the way that you feel
No better than hell, no, the way that you are

Waiting all time for a soul to embrace you
Just makes you lonely and old
Turning your back on the lover who needs you
Turns the world slowly and cold

Want someone to love you?
Want someone to care?
Want someone there by your side?
But you're living off disaster
Living on your own
While everyone's taking their sides

No better than hell, no, the way that you feel
No better than hell, no, the way that you are

Want someone to love you?
Want someone to care?
Want someone there for a friend?
But you're burning all your bridges
Burning down your home
Burning the wax at both ends

No better than hell, no, the way that you feel
No better than hell, no, the way that you are
No better than hell, no, the way that you feel
No better than hell, no, the way that you are
No

. . .


Staring out my window, see their faces they can't hide
Strangers from a daydream, running rabid pass me by
I'm just one man caught in a world's confusion
Look for a way out, can't find no easy solution

But I'll try to make it, all that I need, don't say die

Hold on, hold on, got to hold on one more
Hold on, hold on, got to hold on one more
One more day
One more day

Been around, I've seen it all, heard all the lies
Sure I've had my blue days but got no time to cry
The makers, the takers, that never give back
They got me running, their dogs on my tracks

But I'll try to make it, all that I need, don't say die

Hold on, hold on, got to hold on one more
Hold on, hold on, got to hold on one more
One more day

But I'll try to make it, all that I need, don't say die

Hold on, hold on, got to hold on one more
Hold on, hold on, got to hold on one more
Hold on, hold on, got to hold on one more
Hold on, hold on, got to hold on one more

. . .


Got a head full of fever
My body's wracked with pain
Staring into blackness
Something's waiting there for me

Try to hold to my senses
But darkness has got a hand on me
Stripping back the covers
Leaving a bed of doubt and agony

It's in the shadows waiting
Nightmares
Nightmares
Nightmares
Nightmares

Parasites sucking on my veins
Unholy fears coming true
I wish i could sleep in the silent deep
And escape this insanity

It's in the shadows waiting
Nightmares
Nightmares
Nightmares
Nightmares

Lost in the shadows screaming
Nightmares, save me
Nightmares, wake me
Nightmares, wake me
Nightmares

. . .


Desperate and a loser
A failure at his trade
Nothing more to live for
A decision that he made

He said that he's sorry
But that won't work this time

End of the line, end of the line

Bargained for his freedom
His last chance to run
Forced into a corner
And killed by his own gun

He said that he's sorry
But that won't work this time

End of the line, end of the line
End of the line, end of the line

Can't take it, can't take it, can't take it no more
Can't take it, can't take it, can't take it no more

He said that he's sorry
But that won't work this time

End of the line, end of the line, end of the line
End of the line, end of the line, end of the line
