The old man told me “Hey you! Make a choice.
You can the music and stop all the noise,
Or you can get out and find your own way!”
I told him “Stick it.” My rock’s here to stay.
No. No. I can’t live without it
No. No. It just ain’t the same
No. No. Ain’t no doubt about it
So rock me again!
I want to roll it and burn it all night
Me and my Chevy don’t stop for no lights
Crankin’ the metal, blastin’ the plant
They want to catch me, betcha they can’t!
I’m out on the road, and I’m rockin’!
Stick it!
I’m out on the road, there’s no stoppin’
I’m out on the road and I’m rockin’
I’m out on the road and I’m gone.

You think we look pretty good together?
You think my jeans are made of leather?

But I’m a substitute for another guy
I look pretty tall but my heels are high
The simple things you see are all complicated
I look pretty young but I’m just backdated

Substitute, your lies for fact
Substitute, I see right through that Satan crap
Substitute, I look all white but my dad was black
Substitute, my fine looking suit’s really made out of sack

I was born with a plastic spoon in my mouth
The north side of my town faced east and east was facing south
But now you dare to look me in the eye
Those are crocodile tears that you cry
A genuine problem you won’t try
To work it out at all, just pass it by, pass it by

Substitute, me for him
Substitute, my coke for gin
Substitute, you for my mom
Substitute, at least I’ll get my washing done

Young boy. A hard, gin, ride. On the loose again
“Live fast to play both sides. I’m out to win
I’m no loser. I have nothing to lose
My life ain’t easy, but it’s mine to use
Raised on the streets I know
To get what you want you gotta take control”
I’m on the run, bad boys
I’m on the loose, bad boys
I’m on my way. I’ve paid my dues
Pull of the trigger, time starts to crawl
Two lives have ended when the hammer falls
Raised on the streets I know
To get what you want you gotta take control

The lost years were long each night was cold
The way I felt? Feel the snow
I’ve done my time, paid what I owed
Don’t want those walls of steel and stone

I put myself behind the wall
Now that I’m back
Ain’t gonna fall

I can take you up, I can tear you down
I’m a heat wave comin’ at you
Takin’ what I please, fallin’ on your knees
You need me, yes you do.
From the moment I take over
You’re gonna call me back for more

Down on your knees, down on your knees, down on your knees
Down on your knees, down on your knees, down on your knees

Knockin’ down your door, pull you to the floor
‘Cause you need it, so bad
Takin’ what I choose, never gonna lose
I love to drive the young girls wild
Gonna drive my love inside you
Gonna nail your ass to the floor

Down on your knees, down on your knees, down on your knees
Down on your knees, down on your knees, down on your knees
Down on your knees, down on your knees, down on your knees
Down on your knees, down on your knees, down on your knees

Here I come now baby, kickin’ down your door
Here I come now baby, pull you to the floor
Takin’ what I choose girl, I’m never gonna lose
I love to drive the young girls wild
Drivin’ my love inside of you

Down on your knees, down on your knees, down on your knees
Down on your knees, down on your knees, down on your knees
Get down on your knees, get down on your knees, get down on your knees
Down on your knees, down on your knees, down on your knees
I want you on your knees
Down on your knees, down on your knees, down on your knees
Down on your knees, down on your knees, down on your knees

Every life has a price
Every fool throws the dice
Even the winners have to pay
Every dog has its day

So watch out, watch what you do
Someone’s looking for you

It’s the law of the land
Every fire burns a hand
Every chance that you take
Might turn out to be your last mistake

So watch out, watch who you do
Someone’s looking for you

Streetkiller
Streetkiller
Streetkiller
Streetkiller

So watch out, watch who you do
Someone’s looking for you

Lay down your life
You’ll pay the price
Lay down your life
You’re in his sights

Streetkiller
Streetkiller, he’s looking for you
Streetkiller
Streetkiller, he’s out for your blood
Streetkiller, he’s playing your game
Streetkiller, needle and spoon
Streetkiller, he’s hard on your arse
Streetkiller
Streetkiller

Closing your eyes to the truth that surrounds you
Won’t make life easy to take
Filling your heart with the hate that inflames you
Just makes it burn out and break

Want someone to love you?
Want someone to care?
Want someone there by your side?
But you’re building walls of plaster
Building walls of bone
Now there’s nowhere left to hide

No better than hell, no, the way that you feel
No better than hell, no, the way that you are

Waiting all time for a soul to embrace you
Just makes you lonely and old
Turning your back on the lover who needs you
Turns the world slowly and cold

Want someone to love you?
Want someone to care?
Want someone there by your side?
But you’re living off disaster
Living on your own
While everyone’s taking their sides

No better than hell, no, the way that you feel
No better than hell, no, the way that you are

Want someone to love you?
Want someone to care?
Want someone there for a friend?
But you’re burning all your bridges
Burning down your home
Burning the wax at both ends

No better than hell, no, the way that you feel
No better than hell, no, the way that you are
No better than hell, no, the way that you feel
No better than hell, no, the way that you are
No

Staring out my window, see their faces they can’t hide
Strangers from a daydream, running rabid pass me by
I’m just one man caught in a world’s confusion
Look for a way out, can’t find no easy solution

But I’ll try to make it, all that I need, don’t say die

Hold on, hold on, got to hold on one more
Hold on, hold on, got to hold on one more
One more day
One more day

Been around, I’ve seen it all, heard all the lies
Sure I’ve had my blue days but got no time to cry
The makers, the takers, that never give back
They got me running, their dogs on my tracks

But I’ll try to make it, all that I need, don’t say die

Hold on, hold on, got to hold on one more
Hold on, hold on, got to hold on one more
One more day

But I’ll try to make it, all that I need, don’t say die

Hold on, hold on, got to hold on one more
Hold on, hold on, got to hold on one more
Hold on, hold on, got to hold on one more
Hold on, hold on, got to hold on one more
