01. Out For Blood

Music & lyrics by Lita Ford, Neil Merryweather
Waiting for a street fight
Clock strikes midnight
I got a bad reputation
So what the hell
'Cause we ain't doin' nothing
I ain't never done before
So give me all you got, babe
I could use a little more
You try bringing me up
But you're dragging me down
What you got, I ain't looking for

I'm out for blood
I'm out for blood

Carried a switch blade
Since you were thirteen
You never won a battle
So don't fight with me
'Cause you ain't really nothing
Tried to tell you that before
So get your ammunition
'Cause I'm ready for war
Wasting my time
Frying my mind
And I am not
So, what you take me for?

I'm out for blood
I'm out for blood
I'm out for blood
I'm out for blood
I'm out for blood

02. Stay With Me Baby

Music & lyrics by Lita Ford
I find you alone at night
I don't know what you're thinking
Don't know what you're dreaming of
But it ain't me, now is it?
But I gotta know
I can't let my feelings show
'Cause I've always wanted you to give me a chance
Now that I've got you here
You know what you gotta do

Stay with me, baby
I don't wanna make love to nobody else
Stay with me, baby
I'm so tired of waiting, come down off yourself
Stay, baby

To feel you alone like this
I would throw all my kisses
And throw all my love away
But that ain't right, now, is it?
Well someday you'll realize
I was not blind
If I could come along with someone like you?
To save my broken heart
Here's what you gotta do

Stay with me, baby
I don't wanna make love to nobody else
Stay with me, baby
I'm so tired of waiting, come down off yourself
Stay, baby
Oh, yeah
I want you to stay

I find you alone at night
I don't know what you're thinking
Don't know what you're dreaming of
But that ain't right, now is it?
Someday you'll realize
I was not blind
If I could come along with someone like you?
To save my broken heart
You know what you gotta do

Stay with me, baby
I don't wanna make love to nobody else
Stay with me, baby
I'm so tired of waiting, come down off yourself
And stay, baby

With me, with me, with me
Won't you stay with me
Stay with me
With me, with me, with me
Won't you stay with me
With me, with me, with me
Won't you stay with me
With me, with me, with me
Won't you stay with me
With me, with me, with me
Won't you stay with me
Stay with me
Stay with me
Won't you stay with me?

03. Just A Feeling

Music & lyrics by Lita Ford
It's been five days, my mind's in a haze
I don't know if I'm comin' or goin'
I'm so confused, that you're the one I choose
So rock with me, babe, let's get it rollin'

It's just a feeling that I get
From the first time I ever met you, babe
It's just a feeling I can't forget
So don't kiss me goodbye, just give one more try at your love

The days go fast, you're stuck in my head
I'm so alone, I wish you'd tuck me in bed
Oh, baby, baby, baby, well I knew it from the start
Yeah, right from the start

'Cause it's just a feeling
Feeling
That I get
From the first time I ever met you, babe
It's just a feeling
Feeling
It makes me wet
So don't kiss me goodbye, just give one more try
At your love
Yeah

Oh, when you told me that you don't want me no more
I said, "I love you," ah, but you wanted more
Oh, baby, baby, baby, well I knew it from the start
Yeah, right from the start

'Cause it's just a feeling
Feeling
That I get
From the first time I ever met you, babe
It's just a feeling
Feeling
I can't forget
So don't kiss me goodbye, just give one more try at your love
Won't you give me one more try?

04. Ready, Willing And Able

Music & lyrics by Lita Ford, Neil Merryweather
I'm no angel
I'm far from it
Yeah, when push comes to shove
I can rise above it
I get down
But I ain't easy
I spoil myself
So it's so hard to please me

Baby, I'm ready, willing and able
And if you feel like a man, lay your cards on the table

I don't gamble
But I take chances
And if love is a game
That a fool romances
Then I'm a fool
One more time
So start makin' your move
Before I change my mind

Baby, I'm ready, willing and able
And if you feel like a man, lay your cards on the table

So get your ass in gear and do it for me babe
Uh, get down

Well, you're different
To say the least
Yeah, you've got the power
To change the nature of the beast
Well, only time
Will really tell
But, on down the line
I know I'm still alive and well

Baby, I'm ready, willing and able
So get your ass in gear and do it for me babe
Get down

05. Die For Me Only (Black Widow)

Music & lyrics by Lita Ford, Neil Merryweather
Plays with a vengeance
Controls our very soul
To weave you in my web of love
And never let you go
Time to face your destiny
You've lived come and go

To die for me only
I live just for you
Die for me only
I live only for you

Passion fed by fire, it's far beyond control
Holds us in a sacred flame
And never lets us go
It's meant to be
It's your destiny

To die for me only
I live just for you
Die for me only
I live only for you

Black Widow

Black Widow

Your loving is a death wish
It makes it all come true
I'll love you to death, babe
And suck your life from you

It's meant to be
It's your destiny

Die for me only
I live just for you
Die for me only
I live only for you

06. Rock 'n' Roll Made Me What I Am Today

Music & lyrics by Pete Heimlich
I used to listen to the radio
Playin' songs I wanted to hear
Up in my room and played it loud
'Til the music hurt my ear
My parents said to turn it down
But this is what I'd say

Rock & Roll made me what I am today
Rock & Roll made me what I am today

I had a dream that I was sweet 16
And could play in a rock & roll band
I saw some guys that played guitar
They said, "Come on if you think you can."
And the next thing that I know
I find myself right here on the stage

Rock & Roll made me what I am today
Rock & Roll made me what I am today
Rock & Roll made me what I am...

You know people are always tellin' me
To get out before its too late
Say, "It's a passing fad."
And that the money's bad
I'm gonna wind up in a grave
But if I could do it all again, you know I would not change a thing

Rock & Roll made me what I am today
Rock & Roll made me what I am today
Rock & Roll made me what I am today
Rock & Roll made me what I am today
Rock & Roll made me what I am today
Rock & Roll made me what I am today
Rock & Roll made me what I am today
Rock & Roll made me what I am today
Rock & Roll made me what I am today
Rock & Roll made me what I am today
Rock & Roll made me what I am today

07. If You Can't Live With It

Music & lyrics by Lita Ford
I know life gets rough
Oh, sometimes I cry
But you gotta try a little harder
When you're wrong!
Sometimes I got no friends
Well, that just kinda makes my heart a mess
So I just slap myself in the face and say
It's alright, I still got my guitar

Everyone knows love's a game
Playin' to win but it won't turn out that way
So I just stay at home and have another beer

But shit, you can't live with it
Then try and live without it
If you can't live with it
Then try and live without it

Don't you think people are strange?
They never do what they say, no
Hanging you up and making life tough
Don't need to be that way

Don't give me your sympathy
It's for the devil, baby, not me
And don't tell me that I'm wrong

See everyone knows love's a game
Playin' to win but it don't turn out that way
So I just stay at home and have another beer

'Cause if you can't live with it
Then try and live without it
If you can't live with it
Then try and live without it

Yeah

See everyone knows love's a game
Playin' to win but it don't turn out that way
So I just stay at home and have another beer

'Cause if you can't live with it
Then try and live without it
If you can't live with it
Then try and live without it
If you can't live with it
Then try and live without it... yeah

08. On The Run

Music & lyrics by Lita Ford, Neil Merryweather
Going to town, I'm gonna tear it down
I'm looking for some action
To get a piece of your heart
I lose a piece of my head
It's like a chain reaction

Your love has got me hypnotized
You don't wanna see
My love for you, it's over now
It's time for me to leave

I'm on the run, yeah
On the run, yeah

Oh, let me outta here, I don't wanna hear
Your bullshit confession
Just a smack in the head
You moan in pain in your bed
Staring at no reflection

My mind is racing with the flood
The time is moving fast
My love for you is over now
This love could never last

I'm on the run, yeah
On the run, yeah

What we used to call love, is now one step above
Mental masturbation
Now, I'm bustin' out of this livin' hell
Like a bullet from a shotgun
The road has got me hypnotized
And you don't want to see
That my love for you is dead, is torn
Now I'm on the run

09. Any Way That You Want Me

Music & lyrics by Chip Taylor
If it's love that you want, then, baby, you've got it
From the depths of my soul, yeah, uw baby, you've got it
'Cause I've been watching you, and I don't think that you'll gain
And there's no need to explain

Any way that you want me, any way that you'll take me
Any way that you'll make me be a part of you, any way at all

If there's dreams in your heart, the love lasts forever
From the depths of my soul, I'm making love control, for me and you
'Cause I've been watching you, and I don't think that you'll gain
And there's no need to explain

Any way that you want me, any way that you'll take me
Any way that you'll make me be a part of you, any way at all

Nothing you can say or do
Can turn my heart away
But my love for you keeps growing stronger
Each and every day

You know you can have it any way you want it
I'll give you all I've got to give
You can take it,

Any way
Any way, any way
Any way, any way
Any way, any way
Any way
Any way that you want me, any way that you'll take me
Any way that you'll make me be a part of you
Any way that you want me
Any way that you want me
Any way that you'll take me

10. I Can't Stand It

Music & lyrics by Lita Ford
I still remember everything you said
I'll love ya tonight but don't get uptight, no
Then I knew I'd never see you again
I want to make up with you but what can I do?

I can't stand it
Tonight you're here but tomorrow you're gone, oh, no
I can't stand it
The love that was real, got wasted away, oh, it's gone

I still remember the look in your eyes
Well, I wish I could fly, you make me cry
'Cause you were somethin' that I never had
And I never will but still I keep dreamin' of...
I can't stand it
Tonight you're here but tomorrow you're gone, oh, no

I can't stand it
The love that was real, got wasted away, oh, it's gone

I will wait forever, just to have you one more time
'Cause it's the only way, I can't ever keep you out of my mind

I can't stand it, I can't stand it, I can't stand it
You know there's no other way
I can't stand it
You know I can't take it no more...
