ROCK MY NIGHTS AWAY
(Gary Barden, Andy Nye) 4:36
She never wants to hide from fire, No ..
Got too much desire
She's squeezing out the best in me, But oh..
I don't want to let her go
She makes me feel a little special, Yeah ..
Never keeps it to herself
Really does the things I like oh oh..
I don't wanna let her go
The more you give to me girl day to day
It's very hard to stay away and when i'm sad and lonely
Far from home
Who's gonna rock my nights away!
The lightening only struck me once, But oh..
You can strike me anytime
'Cos when I get you all alone, Lookout I won't ever let you go
The more I get to know you your out of reach
You've got me so, I just can't sleep
'Cos when i'm sad and lonely from day to day
Who's gonna rock my nights away
'Cos I need you babe!!
She never wants to hide from fire no got too much desire
She's squeezing out the best in me, Oh..
I don't wanna let her go
The more you give to me girl day by day
I'ts very hard to stay away
'Cos when i'm sad and lonely far from home
Who's gonna rock my nights away
READY TO ROCK
(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Gary Barden) 3:27
You know the sound, you got the feeling,
You know there's no going back
It's all you see, all you believe
You must have that sound
You gotta rock , and get down
Some crazy dreams, make your head spin round
Let's rock and get down
You heard the word ,now it's all over town
Out in the streets, the kids stand and wait their time
Tell me how do you feel, do you wanna rock tonight
Are you ready, are you ready to rock
Tell me you're ready, tell me you're ready to rock!
There's no mistake, no denying
We're just one of a kind, there's no conceit
Seems like we're all black sheep
Abiding our time, you wanna rock and get down
Love that sound, makes our heads, Spin round and round
Let's rock and get down
I said the word, now gather around!
Out in the streets, the lights hit nameless crowd
Black n'silver mystique
Beam on a face with grace, and shout out.
Are you ready are you ready to rock
Tell me you're ready, tell me you're ready to rock!
ATTACK OF THE MAD AXEMAN
(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Gary Barden) 4:18
Sneaking round the back streets
Don't stay out to late
cause he's got something he want's to give to you
He calls in his dreams, with his phantom screams
Hide from the shadows in the night
Only day will save you,
Gotta watch the attack of the mad axeman
He can take you anytime he pleases
He wants to make you bleed,
Around town his laughter sounds
Deep into the night, that flash of knife in the
Flickering lights for you
He knows when he's down
But he's got to have more
Cause he thrives on excess celebration!
Time after time, in the wings, you can see him
He's only looking for fun, in his dreams; Ah..
Watch the attack of the mad axeman!
DESERT SONG
(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Graham Bonnet) 5:51
We're sailing ships across the desert
And fading in the Arabian sun
You're stallion stands to watch the sun set
The women scream as the camels run
To find a mirage cool oasis
And lie beneath the palms and the sky
And spend the night a silver moon set
The rising sun in the eagles eye
The heat of a dusky lady, Born on the sand
Burnin' with desert fire, Cooling the man
Endless is the blowing desert
And in the shipwreck some may be lost
Too hot the sand too deep the oceans
It's just surviving whatever the cost
The heat of a dusky lady, Born on the sand
We're sailing ships across the desert
And fading in the Arabian sun
You're stallion stands to watch the sun set
The women scream as the camels run
The heat of a dusky lady, Born on the sand
I'M GONNA MAKE YOU MINE
(Michael Schenker, Gary Barden, Andy Nye, Ted McKenna) 4:36
The day that you came to me
Was the day that changed my world
Those memories are sadder now
Was I to know it would go wrong
No I didn't leave you
But we gotta get back somehow
Never deceived you
So stop running away
I never want to hear you say
I was living out a lie
I'll always want to hear you say
I want you I need you
I never thought i'd find
Someone who will always be there
You know i'm gonna make you mine
You said you'd come back again
I never knew exactly when
Never could accept the pain
All the time I took the blame
I want you I need you
I never thought i'd find
Someone who will always be there
You know i'm gonna make you mine
The day that you came to me
Was the day that changed my world
Those memories are sadder now
Was I to know it would go wrong
No I didn't leave you
But we gotta get back somehow
I never deceived you
So stop running away'
I want you I need you
I never thought i'd find
Someone who will always be there
Gotta make you mine
DOCTOR DOCTOR
(Music : Michael Schenker/Lyrics: Phil Mogg) 5:56
Doctor doctor, please Oh, the mess I'm in
Doctor doctor, please, oh the mess I'm in
She walked up to me and really stole my heart
And then she started to take my body apart
Livin', lovin', I'm on the run Far away from you
Livin', lovin', I'm on the run So far away from you
Doctor doctor, please, Oh, I m goin' fast
Doctor doctor, please, oh, I'm goin' fast
It's only just a moment, she's turnin' paranoid
That's not a situation for a nervous boy
Livin', lovin', I'm on the run Far away from you
Livin', lovin', I'm on the run So far away from you
Doctor doctor, please, Oh, the mess I'm in
Doctor doctor, please, oh, the mess I'm in
But you look so angry as I crawled across your floor
She's got the strength, and I can't take any more
Livin', lovin', I'm on the run Far away from you
Livin', lovin', I'm on the run So far away from you
Livin', lovin', I'm on the run Far away from you
Livin', lovin', I'm on the run So far away from you
