GIVE ME LIFE
Tell me baby, where's the fire
Tell me darlin', why the rush
Your one desire to leave your mark
May take you higher, but it may kill your spark
Take it easy darlin', try to take it slow
Roll on, just once in a while girl
Roll on, try to let go
Don't let the good times pass you by, grab all you can
Play me a song that I can sing to
And let me be free to roam
Come on along and help me sing my
Rock battle cry all night long
Tell me, baby, what's the matter
Tell me, darlin', where's the fun
A little sadder when day is done
Mad as a hatter, you just stay on the run
Take it easy, darlin', try to take it slow
Roll on, just once in a while girl
Roll on, try to let go
Don't let the good times pass you by, grab all you can
Show me a dream that I can follow
And let it shine like a light
Leave us some hope for our tomorrow
Rock bottom line - give me life
Roll on, roll on, roll on, roll on
Don't let the good times pass you by, grab all you can
Play me a song that I can sing to
And let me be free to roam
Come on along and help me sing my
Rock battle cry all night long
Show me dreams that we can follow
And let 'em shine like a light
Leave us some hope for our tomorrow
Rock bottom line - give me life
