Lyrics to Paradise City


Just an urchin living under the street
I'm a hard case that's tough to bet
I'm your charity case, so buy me something to eat
I'll pay you at another time
Take it to the end of the line
Rags to riches, or so they say
You gotta keep pushing for the fortune and fame
You know it's all a gamble when it's just a game
You treat it like a capital crime
Everybody's doing the time
Take me down to the paradise city where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home yeahhh
Take me down to the paradise city where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Why won't you please take me home??? Yeahhhhh
So far away x4
Captain America's been torn apart
Now he's a court jester with a broken heart
He said, "Turn me around and take me back to the start.
I must be losing my mind." Are you blind?
I've seen it a million times
Take me down to the paradise city where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home
Take me down to the paradise city where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home yeahhh
Take me down to the paradise city where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Why won't you please take me home???
Homeeee x2
I wanna know, I wanna know why won't you please take me home x2
Take me down to the paradise city where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home yeahhh
I wanna go, I wanna go, Why won't you please take me home??? Babyyyy

Lyrics to Sister Christian / Just Like Paradise / Nothin' But A Good Time
Sister Christian oh the time has come
And you know that you're the only one to say, OK
Where you going, what you looking for
You know those boys don't want to play no more with you
It's true, it's true
It's true, yeah
You're motorin'
What's your price for flight
In finding Mister Right
You'll be alright tonight
This must be just like living in paradise
And I don't wanna go home
This must be just like living in paradise
And I don't wanna go home
Yeah yeah yeah
Girl you've been meant for this since you were born
(Since she was born)
No problem now, the coast is clear
It's just the calm before the storm
This must be just like living in paradise (paradise)
And I don't wanna go home
Not a dime, I can't pay my rent
I can barely make it through the week
Saturday night I'd like to make my girl
But right now I can't make ends meet
I'm always working, slaving, every day
Gotta get a break from the same old, same old
I need a chance just to get away
If you can hear me think, this is what I'd say

Don't need nothin' but a good time


How can I resist
Ain't lookin' for nothin' but a good time
And it don't get better than this
See I spend my money on women and wine
But I couldn't tell you where I spent last night
I'm really sorry 'bout the shape I'm in
I just like my fun every now and then
I'm always working, slaving, every day
Gotta get a break from the same old, same old
I need a chance just to get away
If you can hear me think, this is what I'd say
Don't need nothin' but a good time
How can I resist
Ain't lookin' for nothin' but a good time
And it don't get better than this
You see I raise a toast to all of us
Who are breakin' our backs every day
If wanting the good life is such a crime,
Oh Lord then put me away
Here's to ya!
Don't need nothin' but a good time
How can I resist
Ain't lookin' for nothin' but a good time
And it don't get better than this
Ain't lookin' for nothin' but a good time
How can I resist
Ain't lookin' for nothin' but a good time
And it don't get better than this
Lyrics to Juke Box Hero / I Love Rock 'n' Roll

Bought a beat up six string in a second hand store


Didn't know how to play it but I knew for sure
That one guitar felt good in my hands
Didn't take long to understand just one guitar
Slung way down low was a one way ticket
Only one way to go
So I starting rocking ain't never gonna stop
No gotta keep on rocking
Someday gonna make it to the top and sing
I love rock'n'roll so put another dime in the jukebox baby
I love rock'n'roll so come and take your time and dance with me
In a town without a name, in a heavy downpour
Thought I passed my own shadow by the backstage door
Like a trip through the past to that day in the rain
And that one guitar then my whole life changed
And we'll be moving on and singing the same old song
I'm a jukebox hero, so put another dime in the jukebox baby
I'm a jukebox hero, so come and take your time and dance with me
Just the one guitar, jukebox hero, got stars in your eyes
Jukebox hero, aaahhhhhhh
Jukebox hero, I love rock'n'roll
Stop, stop, so put another dime in the jukebox baby
Jukebox hero, I love rock'n'roll
Stop, stop, so come and take your time and dance with me
Stars in your eyes
I love rock'n'roll

Lyrics to Hit Me With Your Best Shot


You're a real tough cookie with a long history
Of breaking little hearts like the one in me
That's okay, let's see how you do it

Put up your dukes, let's get down to it


Hit me with your best shot
Why don't you hit me with your best shot?
Hit me with your best shot
Fire away
You come on with the come on, you don't fight fair
That's okay, see if I care
Knock me down, it's all in vain
I get right back on my feet again
Hit me with your best shot
Why don't you hit me with your best shot?
Hit me with your best shot
Fire away
Well, you're a real tough cookie with a long history
Of breaking little hearts like the one in me
Before I put another notch in my lipstick case
You better make sure you put me in my place
Hit me with your best shot, c'mon!
Hit me with your best shot
Hit me with your best shot
Fire away
Hit me with your best shot
Why don't you hit me with your best shot?
Hit me with your best shot
Fire away

Lyrics to Waiting For A Girl Like You

So long, I've been looking too hard


I've been waiting too long
Sometimes I don't know what I will find
I only know it's a matter of time
When you love someone, oh yeah, when you love someone
It feels so right, so warm and true
I need to know if you feel it too
Maybe I'm wrong
Won't you tell me if I'm coming on too strong
This heart of mine has been hurt before
This time I wanna be sure
I've been waiting for a girl like you
To come into my life
I've been waiting for a girl like you
Your loving will survive
I've been waiting for someone new
To make me feel alive
Yeah, waiting for a girl like you
To come into my life
Won't you come into my life?
There's no where on earth that I'd rather be
Than holding you, tenderly
I've been waiting for a girl like you
To come into my life
I've been waiting for a girl like you
And a love that will survive
I've been waiting for someone new
To make me feel alive
Yeah, waiting for a girl like you
To come into my life

Lyrics to More Than Words / Heaven


Saying I love you
It's not the words I want to hear from you
It's not that I want you
Not to say but
If you only knew how easy
It would be to show me how you feel
More than words
Is all you have to do to make it real
Then you wouldn't have to say
That you love me
Cause I'll already know
How I love the way you move
And the sparkle in your eyes
There's a color deep inside them
Like a blue suburban sky
I don't need to be the king of the world
As long as I'm the hero of this little girl, oohh yeah
Heaven isn't too far away
Closer to it everyday
No matter what your friends say
I know we're gonna find our own way
More than words
Is all you have to do to make it real
Then you wouldn't have to say
Heaven isn't too far away
Heaven isn't too far away
(More than words)
Heaven isn't too far away, away
Cause i'll already know
Saying I love you
Lyrics to Wanted Dead Or Alive

It's all the same, only the names will change


Everyday it seems we're wasting away
Another place where the faces are so cold
I'd drive all night just to get back home
I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted dead or alive
Wanted dead or alive
Sometimes I sleep, sometimes it's not for days
And the people I meet always go their separate ways
Sometimes you tell the day
By the bottle that you drink
And times when you're alone all you do is think
I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted dead or alive
Wanted (wanted) dead or alive
Oh! And I ride!
And I walk these streets
A loaded six string on my back
I play for keeps
'cause I might not make it back
I been everywhere
and I'm standing tall
I've seen a million faces
and I've rocked 'em all
I'm a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I'm wanted (wanted) dead or alive
I'm a cowboy, I got the night on my side
I'm wanted (wanted) dead or alive
And I ride (And I ride)
dead or alive I still drive (I still drive)
Dead or alive.

Lyrics to I Want To Know What Love Is


I gotta take a little time
A little time to think things over
I better read between the lines
In case I need it when I'm older
In my life there's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
Can't stop now, I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life
I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me

I'm gonna take a little time


A little time to look around me
I've got nowhere left to hide
It looks like love has finally found me
In my life there's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
I can't stop now, I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life
Let's talk about love
I wanna know what love is
The love that you feel inside
I want you to show me
And I'm feeling so much love

I wanna feel what love is


No, you just cannot hide
I know you can show me
Yeah
I wanna know what love is
Let's talk about love
I want you to show me
I wanna feel it too
I wanna feel what love is
I want to feel it too
And I know, and I know, and I know, and I know, and I know

Lyrics to Pour Some Sugar On Me


Love is like a bomb, bomb, bomb,
Love is like a bomb
Love is like a bomb, baby, c'mon get it on
Livin' like a lover with a radar phone
Lookin' like a tramp, like a video vamp
Demolition woman, can I be your man?
Razzle 'n' a dazzle 'n' a flash a little light
Television lover, baby, go all night
Sometime, anytime, sugar me sweet
Little miss ah innocent sugar me, yeah
C'mon, take a bottle, shake it up
Break the bubble, break it up
Pour some sugar on me
Ooh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
C'mon, fire me up
Pour your sugar on me
Oh, I can't get enough
I'm hot, sticky sweet
From my head to my feet, yeah
[guitar solo]
You got the peaches, I got the cream
Sweet to taste, saccharine
'cause I'm hot, say what, sticky sweet
From my head, my head, to my feet

Do you take sugar? one lump or two?


Take a bottle, shake it up
Break the bubble, break it up
Pour some sugar on me
Ooh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
C'mon fire me up
Pour your sugar on me
Oh, I can't get enough
Pour some sugar on me
Oh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
Get it, come get it
Pour your sugar on me
Ooh
Pour some sugar on me
Yeah! Sugar me!
Lyrics to Harden My Heart
Cryin' on the corner, waitin' in the rain
I swear I'll never, ever wait again
You gave me your word, but words for you are lies
Darlin' in my wildest dreams, I never thought I'd go
But it's time to let you know
I'm gonna harden my heart
I'm gonna swallow my tears
I'm gonna turn and leave you here
All of my life I've been waitin' in the rain
I've been waiting for a feeling that never, ever came
It feels so close, and then it disappears
Oh____
Darlin' in your wildest dreams, you never had a clue

But it's time you got the news,


I'm gonna harden my heart
(Harden your heart)
I'm gonna swallow my tears
(Swallow your tears, girl)
I'm gonna turn (turn) and leave you here
(Leave you here)
Lyrics to Shadows Of The Night / Harden My Heart
You said - oh girl, it's a cold world
When you keep it all to yourself
I said you can't hide on the inside
All the pain you've ever felt
Ransom my heart, but baby don't look back
Cause we got nobody else

CHORUS:
We're running with the Shadows of the Night
So baby take my hand, you'll be all right
Surrender all your dreams to me tonight
They'll come true in the end
I'm gonna harden my heart
(Harden your heart)
I'm gonna swallow my tears
(Swallow your tears)
I'm gonna turn (turn) and leave you here
Darlin' in my wildest dreams, I never thought I'd go
But it's time to let you know oh
We're running with the Shadows of the Night
(I'm gonna harden my heart)
So baby take my hand, you'll be all right
(I'm gonna swallow my tears)

Surrender all your dreams to me tonight


They'll come true in the end
(I'm gonna turn and leave you here)

Lyrics to Here I Go Again


I don't know where I'm going, but I sure know where I've been
Hanging on the promises in the songs of yesterday
And I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time
But here I go again, here I go again
Though I keep searching for an answer
I never seem to find what I'm looking for
Oh Lord, I pray you give me strength to carry on
'Cause I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams
Here I go again on my own
Going down the only road I've ever known
Like a drifter, I was born to walk alone
And I've made up my mind
I ain't wasting no more time
I'm just another heart in need of rescue
Waiting on love's sweet charity
And I'm gonna hold on for the rest of my days
'Cause I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams
And here I go again on my own
Going down the only road I've ever known
Like a drifter, I was born to walk alone
And I've made up my mind
I ain't wasting no more time
But here I go again, here I go
Here I go again, here I go

Here I go again, here I go, here I go,


Here I go, here I go
Lyrics to Can't Fight This Feeling
I can't fight this feeling any longer.
And yet I'm still afraid to let it flow.
What started out as friendship,
Has grown stronger.
I only wish I had the strength to let it show.
I tell myself that I can't hold out forever.
I said there is no reason for my fear.
Cause I feel so secure when we're together.
You give my life direction,
You make everything so clear.
And even as I wander,
I'm keeping you in sight.
You're a candle in the window,
On a cold, dark winter's night.
And I'm getting closer than I ever thought I might.
And I can't fight this feeling anymore.
I've forgotten what I started fighting for.
It's time to bring this ship into the shore,
And throw away the oars, forever.
Cause I can't fight this feeling anymore.
I've forgotten what I started fighting for.
And if I have to crawl upon the floor,
Come crushing through your door,
Baby, I can't fight this feeling anymore.
And if I have to crawl upon the floor,
Come crushing through your door,
Baby, I can't fight this feeling anymooore.

Lyrics to Every Rose Has Its Thorn


We both lie silently still
In the dead of the night
Although we both lie close together
We feel miles apart inside
Was it something I said or something I did
Did my words not come out right
Though I tried not to hurt you
Though I tried
But I guess thats why they say
Chorus:
Every rose has its thorn

Just like every night has its dawn


Just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song
Every rose has its thorn
Though its been a while now
I can still feel so much pain
Like a knife that cuts you the wound heals
But the scar, that scar remains
I know I could have saved a love that night
If Id known what to say
Instead of makin love
We both made our separate ways
But now I hear you found somebody new
And that I never meant that much to you
To hear that tears me up inside
And to see you cuts me like a knife
I guess
Chorus

Lyrics to Rock You Like A Hurricane


It's early morning
The sun comes out
Last night was shaking
And pretty loud
My cat is purring
And scratches my skin
So what is wrong
With another sin
The bitch is hungry
She needs to tell
So give her inches
And feed her well

More days to come


New places to go
I've got to leave
It's time for a show
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
My body is burning
It starts to shout
Desire is coming
It breaks out loud
Lust is in cages
Till storm breaks loose
Just have to make it
With someone I choose
The night is calling
I have to go
The wolf is hungry
He runs the show
He's licking his lips
He's ready to win
On the hunt tonight
For love at first sting
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
(are you ready, baby?)
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
(Rock you like a hurricane!)
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
(Come on, come on, come on, come on)
Here I am, rock you like a hurricane
Here I am.

Lyrics to We Built This City / We're Not Gonna Take It


We built this city,
We built this city on rock'n'roll! (x2)
Someone always playing corporation games,
Who cares they're always changing corporation names!
We just want to dance here, someone stole the stage,
They call us irresponsable, write us off the page!
We're not gonna take it!
No! We ain't gonna take it!
We're not gonna take it, anymore!
Who counts the money, underneath the bar,
Who writes the wrecking ball in two part guitars!
Don't tell us you need us, 'cuz we're the simple fools!
Looking for America, coming trough your schools!
We're not gonna take it! (Get up this city!)
No! We ain't gonna take it! (We built this city!)
We're not gonna take it, anymore! (We built this city on rock'n'roll!) (x2)
We built this city on rock'n'roll! (x2)

Lyrics to Don't Stop Believin'

Just a small town girl, livin in a lonely world


She took the midnight train goin anywhere
Just a city boy, born and raised in south detroit

He took the midnight train goin anywhere


A singer in a smokey room
A smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on and on and on
Strangers waiting, up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching in the night
Streetlight people, living just to find emotion
Hiding, somewhere in the night
Working hard to get my fill,
Everybody wants a thrill
Payin anything to roll the dice,
Just one more time
Some will win, some will lose
Some were born to sing the blues
Oh, the movie never ends
It goes on and on and on and on
(ritornello)
Dont stop believin
Hold on to the feelin
Streetlight people
