Ruby, Ruby, where you been so long Done took to drinkin' whiskey Baby since you been gone Ain't no one I know do it as good as you Lickin' on that lickin' stick the way you do You got the lips to make a strong man weak And a heathen pray Tell you ain't just the way you speak You know it's just the way you go down Go down, go down, go down, go down Go down, go down, go down, go down Mary, Mary, you're the one for me And the way you hum Sting like a bumble bee I'll be around to see you 'bout half past ten Ain't felt this good Since I don't know when You got the touch that I need so much In your finger tips I got the honey that ya love to taste On those lovely lips so go down Go down, go down, go down, go down Go down, go down, go down, go down Baby rub it on why' know it's sticky and sweet And it's been so long And no else got a touch like you I let you do the things to me I let no other woman do Feels good, feels good, You do it like you should I loved you so much Make me so glad I'm a man Go down, go down, go down, go down Go down, go down, go down, go down - Dog Eat Dog3:34
Letra
Well it's a dog eat dog Eat cat too The French eat frog And I eat you Businessman, when you make a deal Do you know who you can trust? Do you sign your life away? Do you write your name in dust? [Chorus] Hey, hey, hey Every dog has his day It's a dog eat dog Dog eat dog "Dog eat dog" Read the news Someone win Someone lose Up's above and down's below And limbo's in between Up you win, down you lose It's anybody's game [Chorus] And it's a eye for eye Tooth for tooth It's a lie That's the truth See a blind man on the street Looking for something free Hear the kind man ask his friends "Hey, what's in it for me?" [Chorus] - Let There Be Rock6:06
In the beginning Back in nineteen fifty-five Man didn't know about a rock 'n' roll show And all that jive The white man had the schmaltz The black man had the blues No one knew what they was gonna do But Tchaikovsky had the news He said "Let there be light", and there was light "Let there be sound", and there was sound "Let there be drums", and there was drums "Let there be guitar", and there was guitar "Let there be rock" And it came to pass That rock 'n' roll was born All across the land every rockin' band Was blowing up a storm The guitar man got famous The businessman got rich And in every bar there was a super star With a seven year itch There were fifteen million fingers Learning how to play And you could hear the fingers picking And this is what they had to say "Let there be light" "Sound" "Drums" "Guitar" "Let there be rock" One night in a club called 'the shaking hand' There was a ninety-two decibel rocking band The music was good and the music was loud And the singer turned and he said to the crowd - "Let there be rock" - Bad Boy Boogie4:27
Letra
On the day I was born the rain fell down There was trouble brewing in my home town It was the seventh day, I was the seventh son And it scared the hell out of everyone They said stop, I said go They said fast, I said slow They said yes, I said no I do the bad boy boogie Being a bad boy ain't that bad I've had me more dirty women than most men ever had All you women come along with me And I'll show you how good a bad boy can be I said right and they said left I said east and they said west I said up and they said down I do the bad boy boogie all over town I want to tell you no story, tell you no lie I was born to love till the day I die I just line them up and I knock them down And they all came running when the word got round (Just keep a running) I said up, they said down They said straight, I said round They said lost, I said found I said free and they said bound Bad boy boogie - Problem Child5:24
Letra
I'm hot And when I'm not I'm cold as ice See me comin' [get out of my way] Step aside [just step aside] Or pay the price What I want I take What I don't I break And I don't want you With a flick of my knife I can change your life There's nothing you can do Cause I'm a problem child Make my stand No man's land On my own Man in blue It's up to you The seed is sown What I want I stash What I don't I smash N' you're on my list Dead or alive Got a .45 N' I never miss Cause I'm a problem child Every night Street light I drink my booze Some run Some fight I win they lose What I need I like What I don't I fight N' I don't like you So say bye bye While your still alive Cause your time is due Cause I'm a problem child - Overdose6:09

I never smoked with no cigarettes I never drank much booze But I'm only a man, don't you understand And a man can sometimes lose You gave me something I never had Pulled me down with you Pulled me up, think I'm in love Hope you can pull me through [Chorus:] I overdosed on you [Repeat: x1] Crazy but it's true Ain't nothing I can do I overdosed on you Oh woman you give to me More than I can take But listen honey, I don't mind You're a habit I don't want to break Don't want none of that hard stuff Don't need it anymore I'm in love, and I'm sinking fast And I don't need no cure [Chorus] I overdosed on you [Repeat: x1] Crazy but it's true Ain't nothing I can do I overdosed on you Gee I was happy as a man could be To far gone to escape Power of love, don't pull me off Just write on my grave [Chorus] I overdosed on you [Repeat: x1] Crazy but it's true Ain't nothing I can do I overdosed on you - Hell Ain't a Bad Place to Be4:14
