Joan Jett And The Blackhearts Album

(J. Jett/K. Fowley)

Can't stay at home, can't stay at school
Old folks say, ya poor little fool
Down the street I'm the girl next door
I'm the fox you've been waiting for

Hello Daddy, hello Mom

Hello world I'm your wild girl

Bad nights cause'n teenage blues
Get down ladies you've got nothing to lose

Hello Daddy, hello Mom

Hello world I'm your wild girl

Hello Daddy, hello Mom

Hello world I'm your wild girl
I'm your ch ch ch ch ch cherry bomb

(Glitter/Leander)

We're still together after all that we've been through
They tried to tell you I was not the one for you
They didn't like my hair, the clothes I love to wear
They didn't' realize that I was strong enough for two

I love you, love you love me too, love I love you
Love me love I love you, love my only true love I
Love you love me love

The things they said about the two of us were lies
I knew they couldn't see the sparkle in your eyes
They said I wouldn't dare to show how much I care
They didn't know that we were just two angels in disguises

I love you, love you love me too, love I love you
Love me love I love you, love my only true love I
Love you love me love

So here we are alone, we made it on our own
And though they tried, they can't deny
The way I really showed'em

I love you, love you love me too, love I love you
Love me love I love you, love my only true love I
Love you love me love

(Joan Jett/Kenny Laguna)

Daddy's got his beer and he's glued to the television
An' Mamma's in the kitchen
With the dishes and the pots and pans
An' I be in my bedroom
Contemplatin' all the living I'm missin'
Just waiting for the day
I won't have to follow someone else's plans

I'm frustrated, my hands are tied
I'm frustrated, my brains are fried
I'm frustrated, no place to hide

Cause they see what they wanna see
An' no one ever knows that I'm lonely
I've got rockets in my sockets
But I got no place to go
An' in my dreams I find my one and only
Then I wake up in the morning
And reality really blows

I said, I'm frustrated, my hands are tied
I'm frustrated, my brains are fried
I'm frustrated, no place to hide

Don't do this, don't do that
Don't go out, come right back
Say no more, such a bore

You can go around in circles, an never find the perfect lover
Steal a glance but never take a chance
So ya stay at square one
Ya make a big mistake
When ya try to tell a book by its cover
Yea know I got a lot but I'd sure like to have a little fun
Fun, that's right

I said, I'm frustrated, my hands are tied
I'm frustrated, my brains are fried
I'm frustrated, no place to hide

(Joan Jett/Kenny Laguna/Ricky Byrd)

No tears for us tonight, we've really got to try
Everybody's got their problems
And secrets that they try to hide
No fight or fuss tonight, be gentle as you can
Everyone thinks I'm stronger,
Much stronger than I am

I get scared and lonely
And I need someone to hold me
I get scared and lonely
And I need someone to hold me
Just like you do

There's no place left to go
When you're runnin' from yourself
It's easy when you draw conclusions
While you're lookin' at someone else
I tell the truth to you we've really got a lot
There is no time for sympathy
I think we ought to take a shot

Honey, I get scared and lonely
And I need someone to hold me
I get scared and lonely
And I need someone to hold me
Just like you do

Just take my hand, we'll find our way through
We won't be afraid 'cause
We've got each other to hold on to

Honey, I get scared and lonely
And I need someone to hold me
I get scared and lonely
And I need someone to hold me someone like you

I get scared and lonely
And I need someone to hold me, just like you do

(Joan Jett/Kenny Laguna)

It's nice of you to say
We can still be friends
But what I need the most
Is never gonna be again
Sure I always knew we were worlds apart
But that don't help the sadness in my heart

It's gonna take a long time
To get you off my mind
Love like yours is hard to find
You'll never be mine
It's gonna take a long time

1234

Oh when we were together
Life was so complete
An' then you met that girl
An' I could not compete
Oh you are like a magnet with your ways
An' that's what I remember everyday

It's gonna take a long time
To get you off of my mind
Love like yours is hard to find
You'll never be mine
It's gonna take a long time

1234

Love is so complex
That's why I'm upset
Cause I'm no good for you
But still I can't forget
You can always wake the beast in me
That's the thing that never lets me be

It's gonna take a long time
To get you off of my mind
Love like yours is hard to find
You'll never be mine
It's gonna take a long time

Let me tell you 'bout my baby
You know he's not too shy
He's got a way that makes me tremble
He got them sexy eyes

I said come I'm
Talkin' bout my baby
Wait he makes me
Sh
I said oooh, I'm talkin'
'Bout my baby wow

Let me tell you 'bout my baby
How he touches me
He kisses sweeter than sugar
He makes my heart beat faster, faster

I said come I'm
Talkin' bout my baby
Wait he makes me
Sh-sh-sh-sh
I said oooh, I'm talkin'
'Bout my baby wow

And when I'm cold at night
He warms me up just right
I close my eyes and he goes crazy
All over me wow whoo

I said come I'm
Talkin' bout my baby
Wait he makes me
Sh
I said oooh, I'm talkin'
'Bout my baby wow

Come on I'm talkin' bout my baby
Wait he makes me sh
I said oooh I'm talkin' bout my baby

Stop No

(P. Falciglia/C. Mastrangelo)

I need someone whoa how I need someone
I need someone, someone like you, you, you

Today my love has gone away
He won't be back he wants it that way
An' I need someone to take his place
Someone with a warm embrace
He promised me he would be true
Yeah, he said I love no one but you
But here I stand, I'm all alone
With nothin' to do but to stay at home

An' I need someone, oh how I need someone
Yes, and I need someone, someone like you, you, you

Yeah, we used to travel all around an' around
Yeah, we always went from town to town
But since my baby been gone away
I haven't had haven't had a happy day
Even though we were together for so long
I can't imagine what went wrong
Here we are so far apart
And now he's thinking that he's so smart

I need someone, oh how I need someone
Yes, and I need someone, someone like you, you, you

Oh, oh I need someone
Yeah, I really need someone
I need someone like you
Oh yes, I do baby

I need someone, oh how I need someone
Yes, and I need someone, someone like you, you, you

(Joan Jett/Kenny Laguna)

You call it charm but I'm not
What you're supposin' I am
I am all girl a lady I'm not
I like to fool around a lot

I never think a lot, when I drink a lot
Of sparkling wine
Hey, it's a ragged race can ya stand the pace
Of a love like mine

I'm warnin' you now so don't complain
About my constant insanity
An' for my tasteless profanity
I'm shunned by high society

I get talked about I been carried out
A thousand times
You made a big mistake there ain't no break
With a love like mine

There's a scene goin' down
When there's trouble who's always around
If you could see what your future would be
You go far out of town away from me

I never get dressed up when I'm all messed up
I'm feelin' fine
Think what life would be with a girl like me
And a love like mine

I'm not the girl next door oh no
I wake up mean an' ornery
Don't try to make me straight
You'll see what hell there's gonna be, oow

Won't you love a love like mine
Won't you love a love like mine
Won't you love a love like mine

(Guida/Rovstar)

I said a hey hey hey yeah
I said a hey hey hey yeah
C'mon everybody take a trip with me

Way down to Mississippi down to New Orleans
Where the honeysuckle's bloomin' on the honeysuckle vine
And love is bloomin' there all the time every southern belle
Is a Mississippi Queen down the Mississippi down in New Orleans oww

I said a hey hey hey yeah
I said a hey hey hey yeah
Well c'mon take a stroll down on Basin street
An' listen to the music with the Dixieland beat
Where the magnolia blossoms they fill the air
And if you ain't been to heaven then you ain't been there
You got french moss hanging from a big oak tree
Down the Mississippi down to New Orleans

I said a hey hey hey yeah I said a look out child yeah yeah yeah
C'mon everybody take a trip with me

Way down to Mississippi down to New Orleans
Where the honeysuckle's bloomin' on the honeysuckle vine
And love is bloomin' there all the time every southern belle
Is a Mississippi Queen down the Mississippi down in New Orleans oww

I said a hey hey hey yeah I said a look out child yeah yeah yeah
C'mon everybody take a trip with me

(Joan Jett/Kenny Laguna/Ricky Byrd)

Someday my love you'll learn to treat me right
A wake up my love I'm gonna make you see the light
You're never satisfied until you're bringin' me down
You never give me respect but still I'm stickin' around

Someday my love I'll get to you before you can start
Someday my love I'll take your heart and I'll tear it apart

One night I know you're gonna sleep alone
An' I'll be long gone an' you'll be the one to moan
You never knew what you had when I gave you my all
You're so full of yourself but you're goin' to fall

Some day my love I'll get to you before you can start
Some day my love I'll take your heart and I'll tear it apart

Listen to me you son of a bitch
You think you're so damned smart
But I got news for you I'm gonna kick you outta my life
And when you come crawling back to me on your hands and knees on glass
I'm gonna spit in your face an' laugh at your ass

Some day my love
The things you've done will catch up to you
Some day my love
I'll take your heart and I'll tear it apart
Some day my love
I'll get to you before you can start
Some day my love
I'll take your heart and I'll rip it apart

(Joan Jett/Kenny Laguna/Ricky Byrd)

When I'm feelin' low need to let it out
I do a little dance I call the push & stomp
I said hey, I do the push & stomp
Saw you on the street ya looked a little down
Come along with me I'll turn you right around
I say hey let's do the push & stomp
Ya just a shake shake shake,
Till your knees are weak
Come on move your hips
To the drummers beat
Yea push yourself till you're ready to drop
But ya do it again you can never stop

Everybody needs somethin' when they're blue
Ready to unload I'm Comin' back for you

Till your knees are weak
Come on move your hips
To the Crystal beat

Push yourself till you're ready to drop
But ya do it again you can never stop baby
Don't let it worry you if ya look a little strange
You'll feel so good inside
Forget yourself for a change oww
When I'm feeling low need to let it out
I do a little dance I called the push & stomp
I said hey let's do the push & stomp
Ya just a shake shake shake
Till your knees are weak
Come on move your hips
To the jungle beat
Yea you push yourself 'till you're ready to drop
But you do it again you can never stop
You just shake shake shake
Till your knees are weak
Come on and move your hips to the drummer's beat
I said hey I do the push & stomp
I said hey let's do the push & stomp
I said hey come on and push & stomp

(Joan Jett/Kenny Laguna)

Little boy asked me why people get mad
I just told him they were probably sad
Is that true
I just don't know
I got no answers

So the little boy asked me why the people are sad
They're just survivin' they don't know what they have
Is that true
We come and go
I got no answers

When I'm down feeling lonely and confused
I just hide it all that's the only thing to do

A little girl asked me why the sky is so grey
It wants to rain on this cloudy day
Is that true
And what will it wash way

I got no answers
I got no answers
I got no answers

(Bunker Hill)

I've got this feeling deep inside of me
It makes me be what I'm supposed to be
It makes me feel alright
When I'm with you at night an' we love

Ya hold me so with this big temptation
This kind of feelin' could move the nation
An' I'm okay when I'm here with you
I do the things that ya want me to
I don't do these things for no one else
When I'm with you I can't control myself
I can't control myself
I can't control myself

Johnny is a joker He's a bird
A very funny joker He's a bird)
But when he jokes my hone He's a dog
His jokin ain't so funny What a dog
Johnny is a joker that's a cryin'
To steal my baby He's a bird dog

Johnny sings a love song Like a bird
Sings the sweetest love song You ever heard
But when he sings to my gal What a howl
To me he's just a wolf dog On the prowl
Johnny wants to fly away and
Bug a lug my baby He's a bird dog

Hey bird dog stay away from my quail
Hey bird dog you're on the wrong trail
Bird dog you better leave my lovey dove alone
Hey bird dog get away from my chick
Hey bird dog better get away quick
Bird dog you better find
A chicky little of your own

He's a bird dog

Johnny kissed the teacher He's a bird
He tiptoed up to reach her He's a bird
Though he's the teacher's pet now He's a dog
What he wants he can get now What a dog
He even made the teacher let him sit
Next to my baby He's a bird dog

He's a bird dog he's a bird dog

Let me tell you 'bout my baby
You know he's not too shy
He's got a way that makes me tremble
He got them sexy eyes

I said come I'm
Talkin' bout my baby
Wait he makes me
Sh
I said oooh, I'm talkin'
'Bout my baby wow

Let me tell you 'bout my baby
How he touches me
He kisses sweeter than sugar
He makes my heart beat faster, faster

I said come I'm
Talkin' bout my baby
Wait he makes me
Sh-sh-sh-sh
I said oooh, I'm talkin'
'Bout my baby wow

And when I'm cold at night
He warms me up just right
I close my eyes and he goes crazy
All over me wow whoo

I said come I'm
Talkin' bout my baby
Wait he makes me
Sh
I said oooh, I'm talkin'
'Bout my baby wow

Come on I'm talkin' bout my baby
Wait he makes me sh
I said oooh I'm talkin' bout my baby
