Lux once mentioned in an interview that he was never really happy with the sound of the first two Studio Albums (Songs The Lord Taught Us - 1980 March & Psychedelic Jungle - 1981 May) and I agree! The Ohio Demos do document the Sound, that they had, much better!

Lyrics:

Roll on, rock on, raw bones

Well, there's still a lot of rhythm in these

Rockin' bones

I wanna leave a happy memory when I go

I wanna leave something to let the whole world know

That the rock in roll daddy has a done passed on

But my bones will keep a-rockin' long after I've gone

Roll on, rock on, raw bones

Well, there's still a lot of rhythm in these

Rockin' bones

Well, when I die don't you bury me at all

Just nail my bones up on the wall

Beneath these bones let these words be seen

This is the bloody gears of a boppin' machine

Roll on, rock on, raw bones

Well, there's still a lot of rhythm in these

Rockin' bones

I ain't a worried about tomorrow, just a-thinkin' 'bout tonight

My bones are gettin' restless, gonna do it up right

A few more times around the hardwood floor

Before we turn off the lights and close the door

Roll on, rock on, raw bones

Well, there's still a lot of rhythm in these

Rockin' bones
