1. ROCK 'N' ROLL OUTLAW

I don't need lots of people, tellin' me what to do
I don't need a long haired lady, to love me true as true
All I need is a rock'n'roll band...somewhere new to play
And I'm on my way, I'm on my way

I'm a rock'n'roll outlaw, and I'm on the run
I'm a rock'n'roll outlaw, I never needed anyone

My life isn't easy baby, it's the life that I need
I got music livin' inside of me, I gotta set it free
All I need is a rock'n'roll band...somewhere new to play
And I'm on my way, I'm on my way

I'm a rock'n'roll outlaw, and I'm on the run
I'm a rock'n'roll outlaw, I never needed anyone

Playin' music babe, is all I know
Where it wants to take me honey...

All I want from livin' is just to be left alone
All I need is an open road, 'cause I'm a rollin' stone
All I need is a rock'n'roll band...somewhere new to play
And I'm on my way, I'm on my way

I'm a rock'n'roll outlaw, and I'm on the run
I'm a rock'n'roll outlaw, I never needed anyone

I'm a rock'n'roll outlaw, and I'm on the run
I'm a rock'n'roll outlaw, momma I don't need no one

I'm a rock'n'roll outlaw, and I'm on the run
I'm a rock'n'roll outlaw, I never needed anyone


2. REMEDY

Get outta the streets, get outta your cage
Start thinkin' sharp you gotta get some rage
Set yourself free, set yourself free
Good rockin' music is all you need

It's gonna save your head, it's gonna save your soul
That good old fashioned, good time remedy they call rock'n'roll

Ain't no time for settlin' down

Rock'n'roll that's been goin' around

That good old fashioned, good time remedy they call rock'n'roll
Rock and roll!

It's gonna save your head, it's gonna save your soul
That good old fashioned, good time remedy they call rock'n'roll

Good time rock'n'roll

3. NICE BOYS

She hit town a rose in bloom
Smell the sweet, sweet perfume
The color faded and the petals died
Down in the city no one cried
And in the streets the garbage lies
Protected by a million flies
With roaches so big they got bones
They moved in and made themselves at home

I say nice boys...don't play rock'n'roll
Nice boys...don't play rock'n'roll
I'm not a nice boy!

Sweet sixteen she was fresh and clean
Wanted so bad to be part of the scene
She met the man and she did the smack
And now, she pays the price layin' down on her back
Want so bad just to please the boys
Ended up bein' just a toy
Played so hard burned her life away
Lies were told no promises made

Nice boys...don't play rock'n'roll
Nice boys...don't play rock'n'roll
I'm not a nice boy...and I never was

Young and fresh when she hit town
Hot for kicks just to get around
And now she lays in a filthy room
She kills the pain with a flick and a spoon
And in the streets the garbage lies
protected by a million flies
With roaches so big they got bones
They moved in and made themselves at home

Nice boys...don't play rock'n'roll
Nice boys...don't play rock'n'roll
Nice boys...don't play rock'n'roll
Nice boys...don't play rock'n'roll
Nice boys...don't play rock'n'roll
Nice boys...don't play rock'n'roll
Nice boys...don't play rock'n'roll
Nice boys...they never play rock'n'roll


4. ONE OF THE BOYS

They were so damn glad when I left school
Said I was crazy 'cause I broke the rules
Time to start livin' my teenage dream
Out on the streets it was rough and mean

That's why...they call me one of the boys

Got tattooed arms and rings in my ears
Never gonna suffer a straight man's fears
Better have a drink, crankin' with the mates
Movin' fast I'm gonna make the grade

That's why...they call me one of the boys
That's why...they call me one of the boys

I'm pushin' it hard, I'm pushin' it fast
Gotta work it over, I gotta make it last

What you need is mates, staunch and true
Hold out your back they're gonna see you through
I don't look for trouble but I won't hide
I'll jump on you if you don't step aside

That's why...they call me one of the boys

There's one thing I've learned
And I know it's so true
Bad girls love bad boys but
Good girls love 'em too

I was young and wild, so much to learn
A fierce bright flame and hot to burn
Can't turn back 'cause the die is cast
I die young, from livin' fast

That's why...they call me one of the boys
That's why...they call me one of the boys
That's why...they call me one of the boys

Ah yeah...I'm just one of, I'm just one of
I'm just one of the boys
I'm just one of, I'm just one of
I'm just one of just one of the boys
I'm just one of just one of the boys
I'm just one of just one of the boys


5. BAD BOY FOR LOVE

Thirty days in the county jail
Let me out and I just wanted to wail
Some fool tried to hold me down
I got drunk and I ripped up the town

I'm a bad boy...a bad boy for love
I'm a bad boy...a bad boy for love

Well I...I went around just to see my chick
I found her room and it was candle lit
She's makin' love to another man
I shot 'em both and they locked me in the slam

I'm a bad boy...a bad boy for love
I'm a bad boy...a bad boy for love

Mmm bad...so bad

Well I...I heard the the word there was a local break
It was a chance I just had to take
I jumped the wall and I was on the run
They came after me with a thousand guns

'Cause I'm a bad boy...a bad boy for love
I'm a bad boy...a bad boy for love

Yeah I'm a bad boy...a bad boy for love
Yeah I'm a bad boy...a bad boy for love

Honey I'm bad...thirty years mama
In the county jail...


6. BUTCHER AND FAST EDDY

It happened in the suburbs north of the river
Where the smokestacks scrape the air
And gangs of short haired boys roam the streets
Get out of there way, 'cause there out to get there share

Now Butcher, he was the leader
Had a reputation for being tough but fair
He knew life was just a gamble
So he lived from day to day without a care

Stick around and I'll tell ya
About Butcher and Fast Eddy

Across the river lived Fast Eddy
He was known to be treacherous, very mean
Even Eddy's sweet young sister out on the streets
Just a girl, barely fifteen

Now Fast Eddy, he led the rival gang
And he claimed he was better...than most
One day I'm gonna fix that Butcher
Always seemed to be this cocky braggart's boast

There's only the quick and the dead
I wanna know who's layin' down

Now, I'm gonna win this fight said Eddy
Yeah...'cause I'm gonna take a knife, and I'm gonna take a gun
But Butcher, he told his mates as they gathered 'round
I got two good fists, and you know I never...
Never ever ever been afraid of anyone

And it came the night, at last for their meeting
I can't lose said Eddy, 'cause I'm the best
But the cold light of morning found Eddy
His own switchblade knife...buried deep in his chest!

Yeah that's it all....Oh-WOW Butcher, and Fast Eddy
Yeah that's it all

And the law never did touch Butcher
And I'm so glad, 'cause I know so well
He was a born with a wild free spirit, and he never...
He never was the kind to live locked up in some dirty stinkin' cell

And the kids, they still talk about it
In the back streets and alleyways around town
They still talk about that cold, windy Saturday night
That old Butcher...ya know, he put Fast Eddy down...


7. MANZIL MADNESS

Spent too many nights
Walkin' in the streets of the city
I lost the sweet taste of youth
Oh babe that's such a pity

Suburban tourists come to stare
The weekend warriors cruisin' there
Come to see what makes 'em scared
Truth revealed by neon glare

Struck by Manzil Madness
Down on Springfield Avenue
Struck by Manzil madness
There was nothing I could do
Struck by Manzil Madness
Down on Springfield Avenue
Struck by Manzil madness
There was nothing, whoah nothing, nothing I could do

Spent so much wasted time
Gettin' myself to bed
The women I wanted wouldn't look my way
And I took someone else instead

Suburban tourists come to stare
The weekend warriors cruisin' there
Come to see what makes 'em scared
Truth revealed by neon glare

Struck by Manzil Madness
Down on Springfield Avenue
Struck by Manzil madness
There was nothing I could do
Struck by Manzil Madness
Down on Springfield Avenue
Struck by Manzil madness
There was nothing, whoah nothing, nothing I could do

Struck by Manzil Madness
Down on Springfield Avenue
Struck by Manzil madness
There was nothing I could do
Struck by Manzil Madness
Down on Springfield Avenue
Struck by Manzil madness
There was nothing, whoah nothing, nothing I could do

Spent too many nights...holdin' up the bar

9. ASSAULT AND BATTERY

The charge was assault and battery
The judge said there'd be no bail
The charge was assault and battery
They dragged me off to jail

I did no crime she was no friend of mine
Vengeance and justice went hand in hand
But there's a law for the rich, and a law for the poor
And I'm just a workin' man, I'm just a workin' man

They took no notice of her tears
But they were gettin' drunk on her fear
I arrived in time to spare her fate
That little girl would feel no shame

I did no crime she was no friend of mine
Vengeance and justice went hand in hand
There's a law for the rich, and a law for the poor
I'm just a workin' man, I'm just a workin' man

The charge was assault and battery
The judge said there'd be no bail
The charge was assault and battery
And they dragged me off to jail

They turned on me mad, crazy and mean
I stole 'em the cake, they were gonna cream
They leapt on me like a pack of dogs
Pullin' me down, they wanted me flogged

Punchin' and fightin' I got to my feet
Determined to leave their blood on the street
If I went down now they'd kick me to death
That sweet little girl would be left a wreck

I did no crime she was no friend of mine
Vengeance and justice went hand in hand
There's a law for the rich, and a law for the poor
I've been a workin' man, I've always been a workin' man

Their waitin' on me when I got out
And they stabbed me full of holes
It's now a case of kill or be killed
Unwritten jungle law

I did no crime she was no friend of mine
Vengeance and justice went hand in hand
There's a law for the rich, and a law for the poor
I'm just a simple workin' man, I'm just a simple workin' man

The charge was assault and battery
The judge said there'd be no bail
The charge was assault and battery
Three years in the stinkin' jail

The charge was assault and battery
The charge was assault and battery
The charge was assault and battery


10. ROCK 'N' ROLL IS KING

Well it's time to drink
I don't want to think about sorrow
Be one of the boys and make some noise
There's still tomorrow

I don't watch the news, 'cause singin' the blues
Is goin' out of style
Get out on the town, forget to frown
Learn how to smile

Dance and sing, let it ring
Dance and sing, Rock'n'Roll is king
Yeah it is

I'm learnin' to fly, I don't know why
I never did it before
Go and dance the best, don't need no rest
Till I'm down on the floor

Grab a girl, watch her spin and twirl
Dance and sway
Forgettin' all the rules, be loose be cool
Learn how to play

Dance and sing, let it ring
Dance and sing, Rock'n'Roll is king

All you gotta do...
Dance and sing, let it ring
Dance and sing, Rock'n'Roll is king
Rock'n'Roll is king, Rock'n'Roll is king
Yeah
Rock'n'Roll is king
Yeah
Rock'n'Roll is king
Oh yeah
Rock'n'Roll is king
Oh yeah...yeah...yeah


11. BRANDED

Did you know I was a danger
Did you know I was a threat
I might even be a killer
But they ain't pushed me that far yet

I've been branded, branded
I wear the mark of the slave on my head
Branded, branded
I know the feeling of the yoke on my neck
Branded, branded
I bear the scars of the lash on my back
Branded, branded
I've had enough and now I'm gonna fight back
Gonna fight back

Did you know I was a rebel
Yes I've always been one out
And though they tried so hard to kill me
You will always hear me shout

I've been branded, branded
I wear the mark of the slave on my head
Branded, branded
I know the feeling of the yoke on my neck
Branded, branded
I bear the scars of the lash on my back
Branded, branded
I've had enough and now I'm gonna fight back
Because I need to fight back
Yes...fight back

Did you know I was a danger
Did you know I was a threat
I might even be a killer
But they ain't pushed me that far yet
Did you know I was a rebel
Yes I've always been one out
And though they tried so hard to kill me
You will always hear me shout

'Cause I've been branded, branded
I wear the mark of the slave on my head
Branded, branded
I know the feeling of the yoke on my neck
Branded, branded
I bear the scars of the lash on my back
Branded, branded
I've had enough, I'm gonna fight back

I'm gonna fight back
Yes, 'cause they branded me
They hunted me like an animal
They branded me a slave
They invaded my home
They put a yoke around my neck
They made me work...they beat me
Like an animal
They made me, they made me want to kill
Just to be free
They beat me, they took away my freedom
They took away my dignity
They tried to destroy my soul by breakin' my heart
They tried to change what I believed
By breakin' my very will to live
Drove me, they hounded me
I was beaten, I was driven
I was thrown in jail for the things that I said
I got a million thoughts runnin' in my head
I got a million words, that my mouth has just got to say
I gotta speak out, I gotta speak out
I'm gonna reach out and touch your heart
Before they tear us...tear us apart
I gotta tell you about the lies
I think I know why you cry


12. SCARRED FOR LIFE

I grew up fast on a working class street
First thing I learned was life don't come cheap
Technical school it was a waste of time
Makin' robots for some factory line

Got my first tattoo when I was 16
The rebel had lost his teenage queen
I'd taken a stand for an outlaw's life
My ma's words kept ringin', "Angry, you´re scarred for life"

She said you're scarred, you've been scarred
Scarred for life Scarred for life
I fought my way through the trouble and strife
I was scarred Scarred for life
My reputation it cuts like a knife

I spent some time a guest of the state
I got out and wanted to go straight
People don't forgive, the police force don't forget
I was jailed for crimes I did not commit

I was scarred, I was scarred

Scarred for life Scarred for life
I fought my way through the trouble and strife
I was scarred Scarred for life
My reputation it cuts like a knife
I was scarred Scarred for life
Been knocked around had a hell of a life
I was scarred Scarred for life
I fought my way through the trouble and strife

I fought tooth and nail, every inch of the way

I got scars...to prove it

I was in love for keeps that time
But rock'n'roll was still on my mind
She was young and true and so full of life
And the pain cuts deep, I was scarred for life
I was scarred, I was scarred, scarred, scarred
Scarred for life

My reputation it cuts like a knife
I was scarred Scarred for life
Been knocked around I had a hell of a life
I was scarred, scarred for life, scarred for life
Yes I've been scarred, scarred for life, scarred for life

Yes I've been scarred...I've been scarred
Scarred for life


13. IT'S GONNA WORK ITSELF OUT

Well I know that the world seems so full of trouble
There's so much heartache and pain
And I know that there's times that it seems so futile
To ever wanna try again

There are times I know when you're feelin' low
You think that you'll never get a break
But if you let yourself be ruled by these downers
You'll be making such a bad mistake

It's gonna work itself out, it's gonna work itself out
If you're livin' in doubt, better start to believe
It's gonna work itself out

It's gonna work itself out, it's gonna work itself out
If you live in doubt, start to believe
It's gonna work itself out

Well I hear in the news nearly every day
That some new war has begun
And it's so sad thinkin' that desperate men
Gotta make their way with a gun

And they spray the air with insecticides
Bendin' mind body and limb
And although it's cruel, we'd all be fools
If we thought we'd have to give in

It's gonna work itself out, it's gonna work itself out
So if you're livin' in doubt, better start to believe
It's gonna work itself out

It's gonna work itself out, it's gonna work itself out
If you live in doubt, start to believe
It's gonna work itself out
It'll work out

Well I know there's no use sittin' around
Cryin' over what's been done
Because there's no solution, and givin' up now
The race can still be won

And with a little hard work and determination
You know that you're gonna pull through
So don't ask for nothin', don't look to no one
The future's all...up to you

It's gonna work itself out, it's gonna work itself out
If you live in doubt, start to believe
It's gonna work itself out

It's gonna work itself out, it's gonna work itself out
Don't live in doubt, start to believe
It's gonna work itself out

It's gonna work itself, it's gonna work itself
It's gonna work itself...out


14. WE CAN'T BE BEATEN

Oh yeah, yeah...yeah
If you want to be in my gang, stand up with me
We'll start a revolution and make the streets free
We'll never weaken, we'll give it our best
Can't be defeated, we're better than the rest
Shoulder to shoulder, we're gonna stand
We're gonna fight till the very last man
Can't be defeated, don't know the word
Shoulder to shoulder, we'll fight the world

We can't be beaten
What do we tell 'em, boys - we can't be beaten

There comes a time when every man must fight
When he believes in justice and right
He'll take so much till he'll take no more
They'll hear us comin' when they hear the mighty roar
Shoulder to shoulder, we're gonna stand
We're gonna fight till the very last man
Can't be defeated, don't know the word
Shoulder to shoulder, we'll fight the world

We can't be beaten
Let me hear ya - we can't be beaten
Sing it out loud - we can't be beaten
We'll tell the wor-orld - we can't be beaten

Now listen, everybody out there in - we can't be beaten
You've got to realise that you're the real people - we can't be beaten
We can rule the streets - we can't be beaten
It's just up to you and me - we can't be beaten - oh

Can't be defeated, don't know the word
Shoulder to shoulder, we'll fight the wor-orld
'Cause, we can't be beaten, hey-hey, we can't be beaten
You've gotta believe it, we can't be beaten
They'll soon find out, we can't be beaten
No, we can't be beaten, we can't be beaten...


15. SOUTHERN STARS

The ghosts of Eureka are calling to me now
To fashion a sword from the steel of the plough
And if blood must spill, for freedom so dear
Rally 'round the flag boys, rally 'round and cheer

I wanna live my life under Southern Stars
I wanna live my life under Southern Stars
I wanna live my life under Southern Stars
I wanna live my life under Southern Stars

I was born and raised here this land is my home
And I'll fight if I have to keep this land my own
I'm a man with pride, my heart is straight ahead
So come and swear an oath on the stars above our head

I wanna live my life under Southern Stars
I wanna live my life under Southern Stars
I wanna live my life under Southern Stars
I wanna live my life under Southern Stars

The countries glories are fading away
But here I was born and here I'll stay

I wanna live my life under Southern Stars
I wanna live my life under Southern Stars
I wanna live my life under Southern Stars
I wanna live my life under Southern Stars
I wanna live
Under southern stars
I wanna live my life under Southern Stars
I wanna live my life under Southern Stars
I wanna live my life under Southern Stars


16. I WISH

Met a man from Ireland
Drinkin' in a bar
Although his voice was soft and warm
His eyes were cold and har-ard
He spoke of Irish children
Knowing only war
I wish I could have know-own him better
I might have understood it a-all

I wish where was something I could say-ay
Something to ease the pain away

I hear the voice of Poland
It's calling out to me
Sighing, crying, dying to be free-ee
Their streets are full of armour
Their eyes are full of tears
Must they live this life of sadness
For year-ears and years and years

I wish where was something I could say-ay
Something to ease the pain away
Something to ease the pain away

Mmm, mm-mmm
I wish I was a hero
Fighting for the rights of man
Wish I was a tribesman in
In the hills of Afghanistan
I wish I was a so-oldier
Fighting for the peace
Fighting down in El Salvador
Fighting insanity, inhumanity

I wish there was something I could say-ay
Something to ease the pain away
I wish where was something I could say-ay
Something to ease the pain away
Oh you know I wish there was something I could say-ay
Something to ease the pain away
I wish there was something I could say-ay
Something to ease the pain away...


17. DEATH OR GLORY

History's heroes were men of great deed
They paid the price when others had the need
There have been times the lions had to roar
Those sad dark years when they went off to war
There's been men who pushed fear aside

Give me death or give me glory
There'll be no talk of ever giving in now
Give me death or give me glory
No other choice we've got to fight to win now

As long as one voice cries against the storm
Someone to strike a light so freedom's flame will burn
As long as there are men whose love runs strong and true
Even in the darkest days there's hope for me and you
There's been men who pushed fear aside
With a song on their lips you'll hear them cry

Give me death or give me glory
There'll be no talk of ever giving in now
Give me death or give me glory
No other choice we've got to fight to win now
We gotta win!


18. SATURDAY'S RAGE

You can't change the wild boys
You gotta let 'em run
You can't cage a tiger
Or tie an eagle down
You can't tame the wild boys
You just get out their way
You can't turn back the tide
Or tame a hurricane

Saturday night's gotta count for something
Saturday night's gotta be a rage
Saturday night's gotta count for something
Saturday night you get outta ya cage

You can't tame the wild girls
Out there getting kicks
They can't learn the old rules
That make the old world tick
You can't tame the wild girls
They're out there having fun
Can't stay off the beaches
Golden brown in the sun

Saturday night's gotta count for something
Saturday night's gotta be a rage
Saturday night's gotta count for something
Saturday night you get outta ya cage

You can't tame the street kids
They're young 'n' wild and free
You can't change what's happening
They gotta life to live
You can't change what's natural
Those feelings deep inside
You can't change the beat of their heart
That makes them come alive

Saturday night's gotta count for something
Saturday night's gotta be a rage
Saturday night's gotta count for something
Saturday night you get outta ya cage


19. FREEDOM'S FLAME

There is a time a'coming
The tribes and clans will rise
They'll have thunder in their hearts
They'll have lightning in their eyes
The pipe and the drum will be calling
Calling once again
Stand beside your brothers
All ye, that are men

Let freedom's flame burn so bright
That all, all the world will see
Let freedom's flame burn so bright
That it shines, shines down on you and me

They'll be sending out the soldiers
To stamp the fires out
Then we must burn more brightly
We'll lift our voices and shout
It'll be a time for axe 'n' sword
And battle flags will wave
There'll be a haunting sound in the hills
Calling out the brave

Let freedom's flame burn so bright
That all, all the world will see
Let freedom's flame burn so bright
That it shines, shines down on you and me
Let it shine

Oh but the women will weep
And the children will fret
'Cause they know the price will be dear
But they understand that it's better to die free
Than live a life of fear

Let freedom's flame burn so bright
That all, all the world will see
Let freedom's flame burn so bright
That it shines, shines down on you and
