Poison - Your Mama Don't Dance Lyrics

Poison - Your Mama Don't Dance Video

Your Mama don't dance and you dady don't rock and roll
Your mama don't dance and your dady don't rock and roll
But when evening rolls around and it's time to hit the town
Where do you go-you gotta rock it
The old folks say that ya gotta end your date by ten
But if you're out on a date don't you bring her home late
'Cause it's a sin
You know there's no excuse
You know you're gonna lose, you never win
I'll say it again
 
You see I pulled into a drive-in and
Found a place to park
We hopped into the back seat where it's
Always nice and dark
I'm just about to move hinking to myself
Mmm Jeff this is a breeze
Then there was a light in my eye and a guy says
Out of the car long hair
Oowee-you're comig with me
Said the local police
 
Your Mama don't dance and you dady don't rock and roll
Your mama don't dance and your dady don't rock and roll
But when evening rolls around and it's time to hit the town
Where do you go-you gotta rock it
The old folks say that ya gotta end your date by ten
But if you're out on a date don't you bring her home late
'Cause it's a sin
You know there's no excuse
You know you're gonna lose, you never win
I'll say it again
 
Play me a little, C.C.
 
Your Mama don't dance and you dady don't rock and roll
Your mama don't dance and your dady don't rock and roll
But when evening rolls around and it's time to hit the town
Where do you go-you gotta rock it
The old folks say that ya gotta end your date by ten
But if you're out on a date don't you bring her home late
'Cause it's a sin
You know there's no excuse
You know you're gonna lose, you never win
I'll say it again

Poison - Talk Dirty To Me Lyrics

Poison - Talk Dirty To Me Video

You know I never
I never seen you look so good
You never act the way you should
But I like it
And I know you like it too
The way that I want you
I gotta have you
Oh yes, I do
 
I never
I never, ever stay out late
You know that I can hardly wait
Just to see you
And I know you cannot wait
Wait to see me too
I gotta touch you
 
'Cause baby, we'll be
At the drive-in
In the old man's Ford
Behind the bushes
'Til I'm screamin' for more
Down the basement
Lock the cellar door
And baby, talk dirty to me
 
You know I call you
I call you on the telephone
I'm only hopin' that you're home
So I can hear you
When you say those words to me
And whisper so softly
I gotta hear you
 
'Cause baby, we'll be
At the drive-in
In the old man's Ford
Behind the bushes
'Til I'm screamin' for more
Down the basement
Lock the cellar door
And baby, talk dirty to me
 
C.C., pick up that guitar and talk to me, yeah
 
'Cause baby, we'll be
At the drive-ins
In the old man's Ford
Behind them bushes
'Til I'm screamin' for more, more, more
Down the basement
And lock the cellar door
And baby, talk dirty to me, yeah
And baby, talk dirty to me, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
And baby, talk dirty to me

Poison - Poor Boy Blues Lyrics

Poison - Poor Boy Blues Video

My daddy said
Son, don't you come to me cryin'
Cause money don't make you a happy man
He said the grass is always greener
Any place except where you stand
 
He said some are born to win
And some born to lose
And sing them poor boy blues
 
Watch out
 
I've lived uptown, downtown
Lord I've lived everywhere
Almost drowned in the puddle of my own sweat I swear
I believe it's due time I get my mansion in ole Bel Air
 
Chorus:
But I'm still singin' those poor boy blues
Poor boy blues
You don't know how I'm feeling baby
Until you're wearing my shoes
Sure as I'm standing here
I got them poor boy blues
 
Friday night I get tanked up
And tossed in the local slam
At least I get three square meals
Until someone gets me out of this jam
In the meanwhile all my green
Is going to Uncle Sam
 
Chorus:
 
Let's walk this dog
 
Don't hurt yourself now C.C.

Poison - Something To Believe In Lyrics

Poison - Something To Believe In Video

Well I see him on the TV
Preaching about the promised lands
He tells me believe in Jesus
Steals the money from my hands
Some say he was a good man
Lord I think he sinned.... yeah
 
Twenty two years of mental tears
Cries a suicidal Vietnam vet
Who fought a losing war
On a foreign shore
To find his country didn't want him back
Their bullets took his best friend in Saigon
Our lawyers took his wife and kids no regrets
In a time I don't remember
In a war he can't forget
He cried forgive me for what I done there
Cause I never meant the things I did
 
Chorus
And give me something to believe in
If there's a lord above
And give me something to believe in
Oh, lord arise
 
My best friend died a lonely man
In some Palm Springs hotel room
I got the call last Christmas Eve
And they told me the news
I tried all night not to break down n cry
As the tears rolled down my face
I felt so cold and empty
Like a lost soul out of place
And the Mirror mirror on the wall
Sees my smile it fades again
 
Chorus
And give me something to believe in (I give me something to believe in)
If there's lord above
And give me something to believe in (I give me something to believe in)
Oh, lord arise
 
Sometimes I wish to God I didn't know now
Things I didn't know then,
Road you gotta take me home
 
Solo
 
I drive by the homeless
Sleepin' on a cold dark street
Like bodies in an old bone grave
Underneath the broken old neon sign
Used to read Jesus saves
A mile away live the rich folk
And I see how they're livin' it up
But while the poor they eat from hand to mouth
The rich are drinkin' from a golden cup
And it just makes me wonder
Why so many lose and so few win... Ha!
 
Give me something to believe in
Give me something to believe in
If there's a lord above
Give me something to believe in
Oh lord arise
Give me something to believe in
You take the high road
Give me something to believe in
And I'll take the low road
Give me something to believe in
You take the high road
And give me something to believe in
And I'll take the low road
 
Yeah, sometimes I wish I didn't know now
Things I didn't know then... yeah.
 
And give me something to believe in
