Sammy Hagar : Livin' It Up
Lyrics
1. SAM I AM
Tried to be your paper boy
Tried to be your boy scout
Tried to be your ice cream man
I could not be your soldier
Or even drive your bus
My skills weren't always that obvious
Yeah, but I hope you understand
I'll do the best I can
I ain't no perfect man but Sam I am
I'm a back-talkin' fighter
A silver bullet biter
I'm a flip flop slider
And a guitar moonlighter
I'm your prove it all nighter
Your holy ghost writer
Pale of shade whiter
I'm your rock n roll driver oh yeah oh yeah
That's all I am
I Tried to be your oil man
Tried to be your big boss
Tried to be your broker but you took a loss
It's just a hopeless case
And I ain't no lawyer
I only got a few tricks I can show ya
And I hope you understand it
I'll do the best I can
I ain't no Superman but Sam I am..and I'm
A feel good doctor
A big bad talker
After midnight walker
Sittin on the bay docker
I'm a sunshine stalker
Hodaddy wave watcher
Heaven's door knocker
Blue, white, and red rocker oh yeah oh yeah
That's all I am
I tried to be everything to you
Yeah, but it would not would not do
I got nothin on my resume
But I can rock you and roll you each and every day
Have mercy on me
I am not sorry
Believe me, it's easy
I'll do my best to be a
Straight shot shooter
A bad motor scooter
Sunny honeymooner
Your heavy metal crooner
Make you wanna holler
Shirt with no collar
Wish I was a couple inches taller
White, blue, and red rocker oh yeah oh yeah
Uh I say yeah, yeah, yeah
That's all I am...
That's all I am...
Baby, baby, baby...Sam I Am.

A dusty road made of cobblestone
The sun goes down
You're here alone
The day is hot
The night gets hotter
Dontcha quench you're thirst on the local water, oh no

Like a cool santana
You wring the sweat
From your red bandana
Like a flash from the past
Through the pale green glow

4. THE WAY WE LIVE
I work hard for the money
Wish I didn't have to work at all
Sacrifice some things
Can't live without another
But we goin' to Cabo in the Fall
Get my feet way up high off the ground

We beach all day then we dance all night
Then if I can get me some I will
Yeah, 'cuz that's the way we live
Live it up
Live it up
We don't like sleepin' on the sidewalk
Don't like standin' in lines
But we do what we do 'cuz we gotta do what we wanna do when we wanna do it
Each and every time

5. I LOVE THIS BAR
We got winners, we got losers
Chain smokers and boozers
And we got yuppies, we got bikers
We got thirsty hitchhikers
And the girls next door dress up like movie stars
Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm I love this bar
We got cowboys, we got truckers
Broken-hearted fools and suckers
And we got hustlers, we got fighters
Early-birds and all-nighters
And the veterans talk about their battle scars
Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm I love this bar
I love this bar
It's my kind of place
Just walkin' through the front door
Puts a big smile on my face
It ain't too far, come as you are
Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm I love this bar
I've seen short skirts, we got high-techs
Blue-collared boys and rednecks
And we got lovers, lots of lookers
I've even seen dancing girls and hookers
And we like to drink our beer from a Mason jar
Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm I love this bar, yes I do
I like my truck
(I like my truck)
And I like my girlfriend
(I like my girlfriend)
I like to take her out to dinner
I like a movie now and then
But I love this bar
It's my kind of place
Just trollin' around the dance floor
Puts a big smile on my face
No cover charge, come as you are
Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm I love this bar
Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm I just love this old bar
And we've got divorces and a big bouncer man
An old jukebox and a real bad band
We got waitresses and we got barflies
A dumbass and a wiseguy
If you get too drunk just sleep out in your car
Reason number 672 why hmm hmm hmm I just love this bar
Play it on out boys
Beer-thirty's over, gotta take it on home
Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm I love this bar
I just love it
6. ONE SIP
Ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay
Yeah man, here we go
One sip and you'll surrender
One taste and you will fall
My love won't hurt you in the morning
My love will never hurt at all
Just two ounces of commitment
Now shake it up and pour it tall
One sip and you'll surrender
One taste and you will fall
And high and dry martinis
And fine vintage red wine
With a couple shots of Cabo
With a salt shake and a lick o' lime
Get your mind of that barstool
Before you spend your last dime
And that little buzz you're feelin'
Will be right there every time
That's right
Ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay
And one sip and you'll surrender
One taste and you will fall
My love won't hurt you in the morning
My love will never hurt at all
Take two ounces of commitment
Now shake it up and pour it tall, mmm
One sip and you'll surrender
And one taste and you will fall
Baby, one sip and you'll surrender
And one taste and you will fall
Yeah
Come on baby, hey
Ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay
Uh huh.
7. RAINY DAY WOMEN
Well, they'll stone ya when you're trying to be so good,
They'll stone ya just a-like they said they would.
They'll stone ya when you're tryin' to go home.
Then they'll stone ya when you're there all alone.
But I would not feel so all alone,
Everybody must get stoned.
Well, they'll stone ya when you're walkin' 'long the street.
They'll stone ya when you're tryin' to keep your seat.
They'll stone ya when you're walkin' on the floor.
They'll stone ya when you're walkin' to the door.
But I would not feel so all alone,
Everybody must get stoned.
They'll stone ya when you're at the breakfast table.
They'll stone ya when you are young and able.
They'll stone ya when you're tryin' to make a buck.
They'll stone ya and then they'll say, "good luck."
Tell ya what, I would not feel so all alone,
Everybody must get stoned.
Well, they'll stone you and say that it's the end.
Then they'll stone you and then they'll come back again.
They'll stone you when you're riding in your car.
They'll stone you when you're playing your guitar.
Yes, but I would not feel so all alone,
Everybody must get stoned.
Well, they'll stone you when you walk all alone.
They'll stone you when you are walking home.
They'll stone you and then say you are brave.
They'll stone you when you are set down in your grave.
But I would not feel so all alone,
Everybody must get stoned.
8. HALFWAY TO MEMPHIS
Halfway to Memphis, drivin in the rain
Self confidence slippin, still runnin away
From the face in the mirror, the lines on the face
From NYC to the San Francisco Bay
From the ghost in the closet, the monkey on your back
From the one that really knows you, been there watchin' your back
But the fire in your belly still burns
Just be yourself
You're like no one else
There's nobody like you
You can't find it on the shelf
Just let the world know
That you're ready for show
Count 3 and let go
Before you turn around and go home
Down by the lilikoi
Near the old stone wall
There time stands still
Yet the water still falls
There nothing much changes
But the seasons still change
Just wishin and hopin
To break even again
You take these things with you
You take em to the heart
But take nothing for granted
Well there's a good place to start
Until you feel the light circle again
Just be yourself
You're like no one else
There's nobody like you
You can't find it on the shelf
Just let the world know
That you're ready for show
Count 3 and let go
Before you turn around and go home
There ain't no sanctuary
Young Jeff Buckley blood
You're halfway to Memphis
In the Mississippi mud
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Be yourself
You're like no one else
There's nobody like you
You can't find it on the shelf
Just let the world know
That you're ready for show
Count 3 and let go
Before you turn around and go home
Turn yourself around and get back home
Just turn around and go home
9. SAILIN'
I've been up and down this hiway
feelin' washed up on the shore
but I can see the sun slowly risin' out there
and I count down one more
and with the world upon my shoulders I can stand up straight and tall
and slip my feet back in those worn out shoes and still make last call
And we go...
Sailin' , sailin', I wanna go sailin'
on that magic ship we're on
sail on sailor sail on
To that place in my head
that simple place I've never been
they say the sun never goes down there
raise the canvas to the wind
And we'll go sailin'
I wanna go sailin'
I wanna go sailin'
Salin' from sunset to dawn sail on sailor sail on..sail on
Sail on
I wanna go salin'
(Cortez)
10. LET ME TAKE YOU THERE
I know a place
ain't nobody cryin'
ain't nobody lyin'

big ole smile upon their faces

I know a place where
ain't nobody worryin'

11. SOMEDAY
Dim the lights when you're not sleepin'
lay the book down on the floor
spread the dream across your pillow
unlock the door
Will find you
cuddle safely in your room
close your eyes go to sleep now
If you're to rise before noon
Guardian angels comin' back to me
bring me visions like I've never seen
inspiration in my dreams
to let your lovelight shine down on me
And love wherever you are
come and find us
no matter how far away
and teach us the way to our soul
Tried to be your paper boy
Tried to be your boy scout
Tried to be your ice cream man
I could not be your soldier
Or even drive your bus
My skills weren't always that obvious
Yeah, but I hope you understand
I'll do the best I can
I ain't no perfect man but Sam I am
I'm a back-talkin' fighter
A silver bullet biter
I'm a flip flop slider
And a guitar moonlighter
I'm your prove it all nighter
Your holy ghost writer
Pale of shade whiter
I'm your rock n roll driver oh yeah oh yeah
That's all I am
I Tried to be your oil man
Tried to be your big boss
Tried to be your broker but you took a loss
It's just a hopeless case
And I ain't no lawyer
I only got a few tricks I can show ya
And I hope you understand it
I'll do the best I can
I ain't no Superman but Sam I am..and I'm
A feel good doctor
A big bad talker
After midnight walker

Hodaddy wave watcher
Heaven's door knocker

But I can rock you and roll you each and every day
Have mercy on me

Ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay
And one sip and you'll surrender
One taste and you will fall
My love won't hurt you in the morning
My love will never hurt at all
Take two ounces of commitment
Now shake it up and pour it tall, mmm
One sip and you'll surrender
And one taste and you will fall
Baby, one sip and you'll surrender
And one taste and you will fall
Yeah
Come on baby, hey
Ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay
Uh huh.
7. RAINY DAY WOMEN
Well, they'll stone ya when you're trying to be so good,
They'll stone ya just a-like they said they would.
They'll stone ya when you're tryin' to go home.
Then they'll stone ya when you're there all alone.
But I would not feel so all alone,
Everybody must get stoned.
Well, they'll stone ya when you're walkin' 'long the street.
They'll stone ya when you're tryin' to keep your seat.
They'll stone ya when you're walkin' on the floor.
They'll stone ya when you're walkin' to the door.
But I would not feel so all alone,
Everybody must get stoned.
They'll stone ya when you're at the breakfast table.
They'll stone ya when you are young and able.
They'll stone ya when you're tryin' to make a buck.
They'll stone ya and then they'll say, "good luck."
Tell ya what, I would not feel so all alone,
Everybody must get stoned.
Well, they'll stone you and say that it's the end.
Then they'll stone you and then they'll come back again.
They'll stone you when you're riding in your car.
They'll stone you when you're playing your guitar.
Yes, but I would not feel so all alone,
Everybody must get stoned.
Well, they'll stone you when you walk all alone.
They'll stone you when you are walking home.
They'll stone you and then say you are brave.
They'll stone you when you are set down in your grave.
But I would not feel so all alone,
Everybody must get stoned.
8. HALFWAY TO MEMPHIS
Halfway to Memphis, drivin in the rain
Self confidence slippin, still runnin away
From the face in the mirror, the lines on the face
From NYC to the San Francisco Bay
From the ghost in the closet, the monkey on your back
From the one that really knows you, been there watchin' your back
But the fire in your belly still burns
Just be yourself
You're like no one else
There's nobody like you
You can't find it on the shelf
Just let the world know
That you're ready for show
Count 3 and let go
Before you turn around and go home
Down by the lilikoi
Near the old stone wall
There time stands still
Yet the water still falls
There nothing much changes
But the seasons still change
Just wishin and hopin
To break even again
You take these things with you
You take em to the heart
But take nothing for granted
Well there's a good place to start
Until you feel the light circle again
Just be yourself
You're like no one else
There's nobody like you
You can't find it on the shelf
Just let the world know
That you're ready for show
Count 3 and let go
Before you turn around and go home
There ain't no sanctuary
Young Jeff Buckley blood
You're halfway to Memphis
In the Mississippi mud
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Be yourself
You're like no one else
There's nobody like you
You can't find it on the shelf
Just let the world know
That you're ready for show
Count 3 and let go
Before you turn around and go home
Turn yourself around and get back home
Just turn around and go home
9. SAILIN'
I've been up and down this hiway
feelin' washed up on the shore
but I can see the sun slowly risin' out there
and I count down one more
and with the world upon my shoulders I can stand up straight and tall
and slip my feet back in those worn out shoes and still make last call
And we go...
Sailin' , sailin', I wanna go sailin'
on that magic ship we're on
sail on sailor sail on
To that place in my head
that simple place I've never been
they say the sun never goes down there
raise the canvas to the wind
And we'll go sailin'
I wanna go sailin'
I wanna go sailin'
Salin' from sunset to dawn sail on sailor sail on..sail on
Sail on
I wanna go salin'
(Cortez)
10. LET ME TAKE YOU THERE
I know a place
ain't nobody cryin'
ain't nobody lyin'
lyin' to the races
big ole smile upon their faces
oh help me
oh help me now
I know a place where
ain't nobody worryin'
ain't nobody hurryin'
like their time is wastin',
their slowin' down their paces
smilin' to the races (I'll take you there)
everybody happy now (I'll take you there)
everybody workin' (I'll take you there)
oh we'll take you there (I'll take you there)
let me take you (I'll ltake you there)
I'm gonna take you there (I'll take you there)
I said let me take you down,
let me take you down,
let me take you down
face down in Cabo
we'll be kissin' the ground
I know a place
where everybody happy
and everybodys laughin'
laughin' at that rat race
got big ole smile upon their faces (I'll take you there)
lyin' in the sun, lovin' everyone
down there havin' fun come on (I'll take you there)
Come on I wanna take you (I'll take you there)
Yeah let me take you (I'll take you there)
you got to let me (I'll take you there)
oh now come on (I'll take you there)
11. SOMEDAY
Dim the lights when you're not sleepin'
lay the book down on the floor
spread the dream across your pillow
unlock the door
Will find you
cuddle safely in your room
close your eyes go to sleep now
If you're to rise before noon
Guardian angels comin' back to me
bring me visions like I've never seen
inspiration in my dreams
to let your lovelight shine down on me
And love wherever you are
come and find us
no matter how far away
and teach us the way to our soul
